Friday night icebreaker: Decide on the three Qs about your project icebreaker #8

Closed daniellecrobinson closed 7 years ago

daniellecrobinson commented 7 years ago

Instead of having people tell us about their projects, let's brainstorm on 3 Qs that each participant can answer. This will make it less pressure on people who do not have a pitch prepared for their idea and hopefully help to break the ice. Put your Q ideas in the comments and we can thumbs up our faves.

daniellecrobinson commented 7 years ago

What do you want this idea to change or impact?

daniellecrobinson commented 7 years ago

What is unique about your project for people who might participate in it?

daniellecrobinson commented 7 years ago

What is a project or that you admire? What would you like to borrow or emulate in your project?

dasaderi commented 7 years ago

I love this idea! Q1: What's your project/idea about? Q2: Why do you think is important? Q3: Have you been inspired by another project? If yes, what would you like to borrow from it?

stephwright commented 7 years ago

Maybe add to Q2... what will does your ideal scenario look like if your project succeeds? The pie in the sky scenario of success?

teonbrooks commented 7 years ago

what led you to start this project? what gap does it fill?

daniellecrobinson commented 7 years ago

3 Qs:

  1. What led you to start this project? What gap does it fill?
  2. What is a project that you admire and what would you like to borrow or emulate in your project?
  3. What does your ideal scenario look like if your project succeeds - the pie in the sky scenario of success?

Does everyone like these questions? @teonbrooks @dasaderi @stephwright @rchampieux :heart:

stephwright commented 7 years ago

I like these a lot though a little worried abt Q2. How long will they have to think about these? That one seems like it may be a tough one to answer.

rchampieux commented 7 years ago

Good point about no. 2, I've seen that kind of question silence a room before. It might be friendlier/less pressure if we generalize it a bit. Something like, Are there projects that you've looked to for inspiration?

dasaderi commented 7 years ago

I like the Qs and Robin's version of Q2. Qs can be a bit intimidating at first but if no one jumps in, I can start answering them for the Open Leadership project just to start the conversation.

stephwright commented 7 years ago

This group is so awesome... pardon me while I gush. 😍
