3 reasons to use this activity;

1. Many people find it a challenge to simply start a conversation.  Having some questions in your "tool box" that you can be comfortable with asking in numerous situations is a great way to build confidence
2. Conversations build from the first question.  By asking the first question you are likely to get asked it back - you can therefore be prepared with two or three options so you have an answer for multiple situations
3. Being genuinely curious is what makes the conversation authentic, these questions are designed to be ones that you will be genuinely curious as to the range of answers you get the more you ask them

The powerpoint provides the 5 questions on single slides so that they could be used as an energiser activity at the start of a session or used as questions to encourage conversations throughout the day

The reflection worksheet to support the activity.  Use this to give individuals the space and time to reflect on their answers to the 5 questions.  Encourage them to think about the story they want their answers to tell, what's the impression they want to leave
