Dear Stanus
I read your postings on the list and like the humbleness as you’re interested in a dialog with other coaches in your region. I guess having a matrix where you can show your own approach can be useful – and maybe while doing so possibilities occur to let them feel your SF ways, let them experience it?
Having a matrix as a starting point of a dialogue with other approaches – can be a good idea. Yesterday I thought: then they can show you in your matrix where they see themselves --- today a former experience occurred to my mind and I’m not sure anymore.
But at least it was intellectual fun to think how I would draw GROW into the matrix I sent you. Since they have a bigger interest in ‘here and now’ (R=Reality) then SF has, I would put a big DOT at the crossing of the 2 axis (reaching all the 4 fields) and then draw the line towards future solutions.
Even if this might be not useful it reminded me something Harry Korman told us acc. Past-present-future-orientation of SF. I don’t know if he would give it written, but he told, there is a tendency in the development of SF to more questions reg. past and future solutions (and less here and now). He sees this while he’s microanalysing SF conversations.
So thanks again for your question and enjoy the dialogue with your coach-colleagues. Warmly from Switzerland, Kati

Hi Stanus / you mention the book 57 SF activities. I wonder whether you have practiced the speed dating one (page 302) I would like to use it next week and was wondering whether there is anything I should be aware of
your feedback will be appreciated

You want to learn more about "Solution Focus"?
You prefer a "step by step" introduction instead to start with reading some

You would appreciate to have a compete "helicopter view" on SF after the first step already?
