MnCMN Professional Development Learning Lab: Better Questions. Better Outcomes.
Wednesday, May 6, 2026 (4:30 PM - 6:30 PM) (CDT)
Description

Change Is Emotional. Political. Ambiguous.
You don’t always have the answers.
You’re navigating resistance.
You’re managing skepticism.
You’re trying to lead without burning political capital.
And sometimes the hardest part isn’t the plan. It’s the conversation.
One better question has the power to change everything.
This is not a lecture.
It is a practice-based experience designed to strengthen how you lead and influence change.
The Experience
This professional development opportunity is intentionally designed as a two-part pathway - Build the skill. Then extend the impact.

Recommended Pathway
Many participants choose to complete both parts of the experience to:
- Strengthen their credibility in high-stakes conversations
- Influence without authority
- Build questioning capability across their teams
- Multiply their impact beyond a single interaction
If you are serious about elevating how you lead through change, the full two-part pathway is recommended. Because learning the skill is powerful. Being able to apply and spread it is transformative.
Who Should Attend
This experience is designed for professionals who:
- Lead or influence change initiatives
- Facilitate conversations in ambiguous environments
- Manage projects, programs, or transformations
- Support organizational leaders (or are organizational leaders)
- Navigate emotional or political dynamics
- Want practical tools they can use immediately
You do not need a “change” title. You do need to be responsible for outcomes.
Investment
Why This Matters Now
Change fatigue is real.
Authority is thinner.
Skepticism is louder.
You cannot control every outcome. But you can control the quality of the questions you ask.
In moments of resistance, ambiguity, and pressure, better questions create clarity.
They surface what’s hidden.
They shift conversations.
They move people forward.
One better question has the power to change everything.
Secure your spot. Limited to 100 participants.
