What is Five Questions?
It’s a game where guests take about ten minutes to answer five questions about the work they do and why they think it’s important. The aim is to share about skills, tools and things we’re learning that might be useful to others. Source: Driverless Crocodile (2019)
I feel there is something powerful about peoples’ stories. I find it a privilege to get to hear parts of it, both the highs and lows and sometimes the rest in between.
Five Questions (5QFF) allows me to share with you the tiniest glimpse of the backstory of various people I have either had the pleasure to meet, work with, call a friend and so on.
These are people who I feel are striving to work for change and make an impact within their circles of influence.
I have been encouraged and challenged by each one of them; I have also learned from them. I reckon you might also experience the same, so sharing them with you.
What are the 5 Questions?
- Introduce yourself: who are you, what do you do, and why is it important?
- What’s your most valuable skill?
- Describe a tool, technique or practice that makes a difference to your work.
- What advice do you most need to hear?
- Suggest an endearing and humorous question for question number five and answer it.
I got the idea for this from Stuart Patience over at Driverless Crocodile, as part of his Five Questions series. He asked me to participate, if interested you can read my responses here Janice Whyne
