298 - Unlocking Creativity Through Trust and Adaptability with Mark Tippin
What does it mean to unbuckle ourselves from certainty and step with both feet into the space between question and answer? It means to be a facilitator, of course! To trust in the process, to find structure in the spaciousness, and to shapeshift as new technologies emerge.
It’s something Mark Tippin has learnt over years: the answers come when we accept that we don’t need them all to begin. It’s a commitment to curiosity that he’s nurtured along the way.
Join us for a macro look at facilitation and a micro look into the AI petri dish, as we ask: is it killing our curiosity or curating it? Full of wisdoms from Mark, stories and nuggets of advice.
Find out about:
- How to let go of the need for certainty
- Why empathy is not a facilitation skill, but a responsibility
- The role of AI in facilitation, it’s help, and its hindrances for humans
- The feed our curiosity as facilitators
- How to make learning a lifelong endeavour that embraces adaptation
- The importance of trusting in the latent genius of the group
