Power of a Good Question Inc.
Our Role
Our role is show how asking good questions can immediately improve your ability to understand others and make deeper connections.
Happily, the benefits are equally applicable to your work and personal lives.
Lisa leverages her experience as one of Canada's leading qualitative researchers to teach how asking good questions is distinctly better than asking a lot of questions.
Or no questions at all. Her teaching includes:
- The critical human importance of being understood and how asking good questions gives that gift to anyone you choose.
- How you need to uncover people's "why" but you should NEVER ask "why" to accomplish that.
- Which tried and true research techniques you can use in your work and personal lives to instantly connect and build stronger bridges.
- 5 behaviours that prohibit connections and how to use good questions to course-correct them.
programs for Business leaders and businesses
A. For Businesses
We curate the learning for who, where, the timing, and budget. But the goal is always the same: to teach and inspire the use of good questions to the benefit of all.
Adventures in Leadership
Geared for Presidents and Partners, these 5-day retreats take you out of the country to learn, reflect, and connect with other leaders. We've done Turks & Caicos and the DR so far, with more adventures to come. It's an amazing way to learn the power of a good question, and the life hacks of other leaders, surrounded by the sun, sand, and beach.
“I love, love, loved this trip...It was an amazing time spent with
amazing women and I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to go!” - President
Keynote Speaking
Typically from 30 to 60 minutes, Lisa shares the key tips for asking better questions and inspires listeners to act in a new way, starting immediately. Lisa is often the closing speaker for marketing or industry-wide conferences, ending on learning that has benefits both work-wise and personally.
"It was half training and half comedy show." - Marketing Director
Professional Development Workshops
Training can span from 3-hour sessions to 5-week programs. They can be one-on-one or department-wide. The tools learned are often applied in the session to a hot problem or opportunity, to showcase the benefits in-action to the individual, organization, or Board.
"This session is very helpful for the work that we do as an organization, and how we support our community, but most importantly how we communicate with each other as colleagues." - Employee

Happening across the GTA and across the Country, these 6-hour workshops can change your life. You learn new skills in a dynamic environment, and in a safe-enough space to try-out new techniques right away.
Individual Coaching
This one-on-one focus allows us to see where your starting point is, and tailor the learning to what you will most benefit from. It's been successful with people from 16 to 72 years of age so far. [Some parents take the training themselves and then introduce it to their children.] It takes from 3 to 9 hours, depending on your objectives.
