Prior to the meeting my colleagues at the Coromandel Hui we were buddied up and set with a challenge to unpack our problem using the 5 Whys Method. My buddy was Aletha DeJong from Hornby Primary.
We were to make comments on our buddies (Ale Alethea DeJong slide deck asking one 'why' at a time in response to their answers to help them unpack the problem.
Initially the thought of thinking of 5 why questions in answer to our buddies responses were daunting. However, as the process began and we learned more about the challenge our buddies were addressing the wonder and curiosity set in and the 'whys' flowed. In fact so much so that I sat eagerly waiting for my buddies response with the next 'why' ready to go'.
By the end of this process not only had we unpacked our own challenge but gained a beautiful understanding of our buddies problem before even meeting them.
What a brilliant connection formed with colleagues we will be working closely with over the next year.
Below is the '5 Why's' process unpacking my challenge.
