PRINCIPLES OF CONVERSATION*

Listen

  • with all of your attention
  • with respect for everyone's voice

    • Suspend Certainty

  • don't let "what you know" get the best of you

    • Hold the Space for Difference

  • let go of assumptions, or at least listen to them

    • Slow Down the Inquiry

  • let the space in the conversation emerge

    • Speak from Your Own Awareness

  • what are you feeling/wondering right now?

    • *The Principles of Conversation have been informed by the work of Sue Miller Hurst.
