3D Ideas 901: The Problem with Problems
Claire writes: “The problem with using the language of problems or issues in conversations is that there is a hidden assumption that someone has to find a solution. And that someone is often the person who is perceived to have more power. ‘What’s your question...
3D Ideas 900: Nailing Things
Claire writes: “The difference between a whimsical thought and an action is nailing it so that something happens. I love asking people what they are learning? A more effective question is to ask what difference the learning is making: “What's different in your...
3D Ideas 899: Challenging
Claire writes: “I’ve been listening to some great conversations this week - coaches coaching and thinkers thinking. Whatever your profession or craft, if you have conversations with people there is much to be learned from listening to recordings from time to time....

3D Ideas 894: Deerstalker
Claire writes: “On yesterday’s walk I saw a tiny muntjac deer pop his head out from behind some bushes. It was tempting to follow him quietly into the woods by stalking him. In the moment, I chose to continue with the walk I was on. I know that deer live in that...
3D Ideas 893: Punctuation
Claire writes: “On our kitchen cupboard is a sticky note that says Is this a bracket? Sometime ago, after some coaching, I put that up to remind me to stop, take stock and reflect. It feels like Covid19 has forced a break and given us the opportunity for a new...
