About this session

In Q’s Impact and Power of Storytelling in Health group many of us have experienced the value of storytelling in our work. But there’s no denying that there can be challenges too.

In this session we’ll explore some of those challenges together and consider some ways they might be overcome.

You’ll have a practical experience of a precision enquiry approach, Clean Language, with the help of members of Q’s Better Conversations with Clean Language group.

This simple approach to asking questions can have a significantly positive impact on:

  • Clarity and understanding
  • Empathy, respect and trust
  • Ensuring people feel heard
  • Efficiency and effectiveness

We hope you can join us at the session. To continue the conversation and for updates, join the groups.
