Question of the week \| September 30,2009
Ask "Do I have any personal biases that influence how I ask questions, such as unconsciously respecting men’s answers more than women’s or vice versa, or discounting the wisdom of people whose language is accented differently from mine?"
As a facilitator committed to the value of mutual respect, you need to offer everyone in a group an equal opportunity to respond to questions. Equity and inclusion are important facets of mutual respect. *See Making Questions Work:* Chapter 2, “Core Facilitation Values”, p 52 > remove me from the list	Making Questions Work "Making Questions Work will assist anyone who is thrust into the role of facilitator and challenged to lead a group to reach consensus and/or take action."
