Goal

Before trying to find solutions for complex problems, it is crucial to create space. This space is created by becoming aware of yourself and your motivations, and to be truly present so you have the ability to focus.

By asking repeatedly “why are you here today?”, you can grasp one’s underlying personal motivations. The interviewer will ask a participant 5 times why he or she is here today. Most likely, the participant will give a different answer every time the interviewer asks the same question and will hereby detach from his or her surroundings.  

Materials

After, the interviewer writes down the core answer to the question, where after the roles are reversed.
