Enriching the Culture by Enriching the Conversation (post by Kirk Weisler)

Each week the wonderful IT professionals of St. Vrain Valley Schools in Colorado share something as a team that they call the Q & Q  –

Quote : “People will grow into the conversations you have around them.” Dan Rockwell 

Question :   One way to elevate the level of conversation you have with others is to ______________.

Great quote, great question… thank you CIO Joe McBreen and Team for sharing this with each other and with all of us here at the T4D.  I am interested in hearing how each of you might fill in the blank and finish the question.   At least one of the answers I would offer is this..

One way to elevate the conversation you have with others is to begin each day or meeting with a quote and a question for consideration and conversation. What a simple way to create a shared and common experience within any type of team or community. Simple and Brilliant.

Incidentally the stated mission of the IT Professionals at St. Vrain Valley Schools is  –

Enriching Education through Service::Teamwork::Communication   (and I can assure that they are realizing that mission every day)

PS = I don’t know for sure but thought the picture they shared might be in reference to a very old television series about Mr. Ed, the talking horse.  Does anyone else know about Mr Ed the talking horse?  He certainly enriched the conversation around his house.
