Triggering Question is a term used in the context of Dialogic Design Science. It refers to the key question used to initiate a Structured Democratic Dialogue Process.

Triggering questions are very important mainly because they help the Lead Facilitator to keep the discussion focused on the subject, and because they prompt the participants to think and formulate innovative responses. The robin-round process of collecting their responses also helps level out power differences among them and encourages them to think outside of the box and see challenges they would otherwise miss and/or generate new solutions around a provocative possibility.


"If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask, for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than 5 minutes."
