Making progress and reconnecting.....ayieee

[Ready2Change]

I've seen it done this way as well, and this can be very good, as the FWAS will often come up with something BETTER than what you would have suggested, and of course, since this will now be THEIR OWN WORDS/THOUGHTS/STEPS, they take more "ownership" of them.

Exactly. You can gage alot from what she offers.

If it isn't much, "That doesn't work for me." then just look her in the eyes and listen some more.....

However, I would ONLY do this if I had my OWN list, loose-leaf, in my own hip pocket, ready to augment as necessary. You do NOT want to walk away from such an important meeting as this without COMPLETE AGREEMENT on what the steps need to be, and without making sure YOU are okay with them!

Make her do the work to get most of the items on your list. Then "OK, I will also need X, Y and Z"
