Illuminators shine a light on others. They make people and their ideas come alive.
With their distinct blend of skills, they excel as facilitators and relationship builders. Illuminators make others feel seen, heard and appreciated. Their curiosity invites richer stories and deeper insights. They see and celebrate others’ strengths.
In this session you’ll work with a partner to cultivate illuminator skills and instincts. You’ll see what distinguishes an illuminator from a diminisher and learn a variety of illuminator “moves”:
- Genuine Curiosity: Asking surprisingly simple questions that reveal richer stories
- Active Listening: Using your eyes and body (and silence) to make others feel heard
- Celebration of Strengths: Expressing your partner’s unique qualities to create a deeper connection
