Questions

How does the right question queue up a great conversation?

When we started Criterion Ventures in 2002, we hosted conversations around topics that matter. We pulled together leaders in a given city for a scrumptious dinner to enable them to engage in an open dialogue around a single question. The following are the questions that we used to drive those conversations.

What do gifts create?
Seattle, Washington

What gives you your freedom?
Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Where do you need more trust?
Chicago, Illinois

What do you expect from simplicity?
Seattle, Washington

What creates possibility?
San Francisco, California

What is the meaning of risk in our world and in our lives?
Chicago, Illinois

What is more important than hope?
New York, New York

What do you expect from serving?
Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Criterion Convergence is a unique conference where leaders of social change gather to discuss the most pressing questions on their minds, in their work and in their daily lives.  Input from participants drive the creation of questions, and questions provide the framework for conversation over two dynamic days.  Learn more about Convergence VI.
