The SF Question Tree

John Brooker Introduction Recently I was running a training course on Solution Focus Mentoring with a group consisting mainly of police officers. I asked one of them what his best hope was for mentoring, and he told me. I next asked him what he would notice was different about his mentee if he achieved that hope. He thought and said, “I don’t know”. Do you recognise that answer? People new to Solution Focus often find it tricky to respond to this answer. “What question should I ask?” they query. “Is there a list of questions I can remember?” Yes, there are ; and when you prepare for an event, you might use them as a prompt to prepare questions. However, as someone who constantly forgets where he put his wallet or keys, I struggle to think how I would remember them ‘in the moment’. There are two other factors too.
