Testimonials

I was blown away with the Better Questions training held in Hamilton Vic. I strongly recommend any health care professionals to complete this invaluable training. I have found this training to be beneficial both in the workplace and in my own life talking and liaising with others, co-workers, family. Lindsay’s enthusiasm and passion for the training is infectious, which made the training delivered in a fun and practical application. Thank you, Lindsay, for your hard work, dedication, passion your enthusiasm shines through.

Thank YOU for delivering such fantastic training! We have had so much great feedback from our assessors as to your workshop, they are all buzzing with ideas and renewed energy.

Unlike many other training workshops I have attended, Lindsay’s Better Questions workshop makes you THINK and FEEL. Lindsay has a relaxed and engaging style, with many hands-on exercises to assist with embedding the skills. Our RAS assessors thoroughly enjoyed the day, and I know they will be utilising their new skills both in their professional engagement with clients, as well as in their personal lives.

I attended a Better Questions workshop with Lindsay Tighe in July 2016 in Hobart. The day is very entertaining, facilitating learning: Lindsay is a very engaging educator. I am a Feldenkrais Practitioner, working with movement habits to create choice in order to move away from pain and restrictions. Lindsay turns the spotlight of awareness on our self-talk, creating space for us to explore options outside our habitual reactions. In this space, we can respond instead, consciously using questions to create choice and self-awareness, thus empowering the other and instilling confidence. As the day progressed it was clear that Lindsay has seamlessly incorporated techniques from a number of disciplines. It was equally clear that there are many applications in home, work and social arenas for using questions to engage strengths and recognise capabilities in the other. I recommend that whatever your field, if you ever find yourself thinking that there has to be a better way, or you just want to broaden your skill base, attend a Better Questions workshop.

“I really enjoyed your Better Questions training. You made the day very comfortable and usable. I have been giving the course a lot of thought and can see lots of practical ways I can put the learning to good use. Thanks also for the book – it will be a great resource going forward.”

Your training was fantastic. I can’t believe how much I have already used the better questions technique. I used it right away immediately after the training during a client assessment and it was so rewarding. I have used it in supervision with a youth worker with success and have even used certain aspects with my 2 year old son already.

“Lindsay, thank you very much for the inspiring and informative session on Asking Better Questions. The feedback from the session was excellent, therefore highly valued by the team. Even more importantly I regularly hear team members talking about how they incorporate what they learnt into their everyday MCH practice. My colleagues within Family and Children’s Services have also shown a keen interest. I believe the principals learnt can be applied to any professional or personal setting. Thank you once again, l look forward to working with you again in the future.”

The Better Questions Training has been very popular and highly regarded by City of Salisbury – Home and Community Service staff. Those who participated have reported an improved appreciation of the importance and power of questions and a better understanding of a range of questioning techniques. Lindsay is a wonderful trainer who creates a perfect learning environment.

I had the pleasure of attending a Better Questions Workshop with Lindsay and enjoyed the presentation so much that I sought approval for her to present to all our staff at an annual training day. The overwhelming response to the workshop was very positive. Staff enjoyed the delivery and content, found it insightful, a real eye opening experience and said the new found skills could be used in everyday life. Very engaging!

I had the pleasure of participating in one of the most informative and useful workshops that I have attended in my many years of professional experience. The Better Questions model encouraged a more qualitative, holistic process to facilitate assessments and has reinvigorated the way that I will conduct my assessments in the future.

Just thought I’d drop a line about the “Better Questions Workshop for Managers” seminar I attended on Wednesday. The session was run by Lindsay Tighe and I have to say that the session was very informative and Lindsay was an awesome presenter. A very impressive person.

“The Better Leaders Ask Better Questions workshop was very thought provoking and has provided me with some useful tips and strategies. Thank you!”

Thank you for a wonderful Better Leaders Ask Better Questions training session. I have found myself listening more to others and keeping my own stories at the back of mind as I was very guilty of matching story for story and I now ask the right questions whenever appropriate. You are very inspirational Lindsay and I look forward to attending many more sessions with you in the future.

Thank you for a fantastic day yesterday when you delivered your Better Questions workshop. Everyone really enjoyed the day and this morning we had a short reflection on people’s thoughts of the day and everything was very positive. We look forward to keeping in touch to help us refine our practice.

The staff and parents at Glen Waverley Primary School have had the pleasure of working with Better Questions as they implemented a very comprehensive questioning professional learning program. The program for the staff ran for three weeks where we explored, learnt and developed the skills to ask better questions with one another, our families and most importantly, to enhance the learning outcomes and opportunities for the students.
We also ran a session for our school community with approximately 65 parents in attendance. The session was extremely informative and the feedback from our families was exceptionally positive. I have since asked a number of parents whether they are utilising the Better Questioning technique and if it is making a difference to their parenting; all of whom have replied, “Yes and very much so!”
I have no hesitation in recommending Better Questions to schools, businesses and any organisation!

Thank you very much for the Better Questions session yesterday. It was definitely thought provoking and filled with great verbal models for educators to take away with them as a tool and a positive change in attitude will come with practise. It was a pleasure having you in the Centre. You have definitely set us up for a successful year.
