In a time when everyone is yelling all at once and opinions are elevated to the status of facts, common ground has become ever more elusive. We’re more intent on convincing the other that we’re right than going in search of real answers together. As a result, discussions often more resemble a debate than a dialogue. We talk rather than listen, and don’t take the time to ask questions. Wouldn’t it be great to know, at any moment and in any given situation, how to pose that one good question that turns a debate into a constructive conversation? Elke Wiss teaches you how. Inspired by Socrates and other philosophers, she illustrates how bad we are at asking good questions, and explains how we can become better at it.
ELKE WISS is a theatermaker and practical philosopher. She writes and directs theater productions, and gives trainings and workshops in practical philosophy and the art of asking questions. Elke also conducts Socratic dialogues within organizations and offers individual philosophical consultations.
