Organizational Transformation

Change your Questions, Change Your Life

Ewing Change Consulting’s goal is to help executives consistently engage their maximum leadership potential and enhance the effectiveness of their teams. ECC uses the industry’s leading methods including the QuestionThinking© System, based on the book Change Your Questions, Change Your Life, by Marilee Adams, (Berrett-Koehler, revised 2nd edition, 2009). The system is practical, easy to use and guides executives in optimizing decision making, problem solving, strategic thinking and creativity to get to their desired results.

According to Adams:

We are either in learner or judger mode in how we see the world.

• Learner mode is distinguished by:
  The ability to ask questions that lead us down paths of discovery and opportunity
• Judger mode is distinguished by:
  The ability to ask questions that take us down the road to darkness and diminishing returns

Like Adams, ECC is convinced that:

• The questions we ask have a determining impact on the amount and size of our opportunities. Staying in question mode (not leaping to answers nor judgment) ensures that we will have a broader vision, see more possibilities and reap far better rewards as a result.
• Leaders who learn to question in learner mode, be aware of when they are in judger mode and skillfully switch are more productive and engaged in their work. And they are more likely to inspire excellence in their teams.
