Some characteristics of Discovery Questions• Invite stories rather than abstract opinions• Are personal and affective• Draw on people’s life and work experience• Are sometimes ambiguous• Help people see and feel things about a work
experience maybe for the first time• Are uplifting• Have a logical flow• Surface hidden detail and specifics about what
worked well

Sample: Questions to encourage discovery story telling
Looking at your entire experience within the organisation, tell me about a time when you felt most alive, most fulfilled or most excited about your organisation/work. (Probes: What made it exciting, who was involved, describe what it felt like?)
Lets look at something you value most deeply, specifically things you value about your self and the nature of your work and this organisation?
When you are feeling at your best what is it about the task itself that you most value?
What is the most important thing has this organisation contributed towards your life?

Creating your discovery interviews
Working in pairs or threes
•Draft a Discovery Interview Guide based on your topic including:
– The title of the Topic– A short explanation of the reason for the topic – A set of questions that will gather information you will need
for the Dream phase
•Interview each other using the guide to test its’ impact and potential usefulness
