Today, we are living in a world where access to all of the knowledge of humanity is getting easier, faster, and more accessible to all. This means that know what and how to ask questions to obtain the required answers have become a skill onto itself. On this episode, we have a dialogue with Jon Berghoff about the power of questions, and how to know if you're asking the right questions. Jon Berghoff is the founder of XCHANGE Approach, a company that delivers legendary group learning experiences designed to blow open exponential thinking, and exponential results. Jon's a living legend for a reason, and he's a ton of fun. We promise you; your brain will thank you for listening to this dialogue today. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Jon Berghoff on creating an experience where people feel safe The conversation starts off with a question for Jon, particularly on how he could create successful digital events in a world where people don't fully subscribe to them yet. Jon shares that he drew his drive from his own experience back in high school, where he felt like he was left out and was disconnected for other people. In time, he realized that breaking through this disconnect is one of the important details in getting people excited for conversations, meetings, or on his case, digital events. Because they have a place where they feel safe and where they feel they belong. Jon Berghoff on the role of questions The next part of the dialogue focuses on the importance of asking the right questions and creating meaningful experiences in meetings and gatherings. Christopher recognizes that a company's success is attributed to asking the right questions, listening, and creating a positive experience, and Jon is an expert at asking questions and creating a safe environment. They then talk about the difficulty of adapting to a rapidly changing world and how it relates to ineffective meetings. Jon emphasizes the importance of designing meetings that address complex issues and move away from the notion that a few people have all the answers. The Ego-centric design of meetings The conversation then shifts to the ego-centric design in meetings and conversations. Christopher observes that some meetings have the feel of dictatorial ego-centric events in which a few people present their vision and have all the answers. Jon agrees and explains that many meetings are unconsciously designed with an ego-centric approach, in which either a few people have all the answers or participants are more concerned with convincing each other of their own ideas. They do, however, recognize the need to tap into collective intelligence and shift the paradigm to engage everyone's thinking. Jon emphasizes the importance of questions in this process, stating that the world's complexity requires less emphasis on having all the answers and more emphasis on asking the right questions. He refers to John Kelly's view that future intelligence will be measured by the ability to ask the right questions rather than what one knows. To hear more from Jon Berghoff and the power of questions in today's knowledge-driven world, download and listen to this episode. Bio Jon Berghoff is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, a scientific approach to unlocking collective wisdom in any group. These are extraordinary times, which call for exponential conversations. Which is why innovative leaders have run to XCHANGE as the solution for bringing together companies, communities, customers in powerful ways. Before COVID-19, XCHANGE was leaned on by companies like Facebook, BMW, Costco, to facilitate powerful, large-scale conversations... when the stakes were highest. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, change agents of every type: coaches, consultants and thought leaders... are using XCHANGE to create connection,

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work is incredibly important. And yet, conversations around DEI can often be emotionally charged and difficult to navigate, leaving people feeling frustrated, confused, or even hurt.While many nonprofit leaders have good intentions when it comes to DEI conversations, they may not always know how to approach it in a way that is inclusive, thoughtful, and effective to the needs of all involved. In our latest episode of THRIVERS, Tucker and Sarah have the opportunity to speak with Carolyn Colleen, the Founder of the Fierce Foundation, about how she leverages the XCHANGE approach —a methodology we use at THRIVE IMPACT as well—to create grace-filled conversations around DEI that promote healing and the energy needed to move forward in your DEI work.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by the things happening to you lately? If it has you constantly in a bad mood, you will have to deal with it before it worsens. But how? In this episode, Matt O'Neil is joined by Jeremy Reiseg, the Head of Admissions and Marketing at XChange Approach to discuss how to change your reactions to things around you. From your physical posture to different perspectives, you will be able to get into a good mood — no matter what! Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: Your physiology affects your mood Your first reaction shouldn't be the last Cut off negativity A new perspective can make all the difference Conditioning yourself takes time [00:55] Power of Physiology One way of dealing with a bad mood is to change your physiology. Get into a position or stance and perform an action that fills you with energy and confidence. The way your body reacts to this changes your mood and makes you a new you. [12:06] Cut Out Negativity Many things in the world affect your mood and condition you to be a certain way. Notable ones include TV shows, world events, and the people around you. If they negatively impact your mood and mindset, it may help you to avoid them. You will feel a change in yourself once you cut out negativity. [24:55] Have A Different Perspective When upsetting things pile on, you feel overwhelmed and blame everything and everyone around you. Sometimes, all you need is a different point of view to understand what is happening and how to improve it. [32:04] The XChange Approach Jeremy is part of XChange; the XChange approach aims to ensure that the groups that go through their programs unlock their highest potential. [46:28] What Are You Grateful For? The secret weapon to a good mood is gratitude. Take a moment to write down a few things you're grateful for every day. The more gratitude you have, the more you attract things to be grateful for and appreciate. Notable quotes: [2:14] — [2:18] “As soon as you change your posture and physiology, your mood changes.” - Matt [30:28] — [30:36] “If you can take an old emotion and an old pattern and you can let it go today, that piece is gone forever.” - Matt [34:39] — [34:49] “When you use the brainpower of 10 people or 20 people or 100 people, you get a way better answer than one genius at the front of the room.” - Matt Resources Mentioned: Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life by Byron Katie Michael Singer | The XChange Approach | David Cooperrider | Ron Fry | JonBurghoff Experiential Learning: Experience as the Source of Learning and Development by David A.

Jon is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, where he helps facilitate meaningful dialogue and change at an accelerated pace. During their conversation, Jon and Sue discuss their takeaways from the WPO Conference and how to design and facilitate conversations that can work well in any group setting. He also shares an alternative method to traditional problem-solving techniques.  Productivity Drawbacks During this era of time, while we continue to have the majority of our meetings online, many feel that we have the opportunity to be more productive. We are putting such a large emphasis on how productive we can be that we are losing sight of the consequence of that productivity. Jon shares that when we get hyper-productive, the consequence is we shut off the part of our brain that does all the important relationship building. Benefits of Curiosity It is common to share your thoughts and ideas, and when they are not well-received or liked we tend to take it personally, as though the person does not like us. Jon explains how during these instances of creative tension we can work through the moment by becoming curious. He explains that studies show high-performing teams that can navigate change well depending on how curious they are.

In this time of accelerated change and complexity, companies and communities need change agents to help unlock collective wisdom – and they need it NOW. This new breed of leaders, coaches, experts, and guides are the ones that know how to design human interactions that create psychological safety, accelerate widespread learning, and bring out whole new possibilities in teams and communities. As the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, now used by hundreds of change agents globally, Jon Berghoff focuses on the art of question design, the science of engineering conversations, and the change that is possible at speed and scale using the XCHANGE Approach. When COVID hit, industry-leading companies and communities utilized XCHANGE (all remote & digital) to solve unprecedented problems, reimagine a new future, and create new ways of working together. This explosion of demand for online facilitation has driven XCHANGE revenues up 40% above 2019. As a former executive for Vitamix – where revenue grew by 400% in 4 years – and an adjunct teacher at Case Western Reserve University's globally ranked Weatherhead School of Management, Jon's refreshing approach combines scientific research and real experience for one of the most relevant conversations today. What you'll learn about in this episode: How to awaken conscious leadership inside of yourself Why the willingness to experiment and take risks is key to surviving ups and downs The four tenets of conscious capitalism How mindfulness is a specific tool to help you be less reactive Why it's important to take a pause when you are under stress The three fundamental attention skills The three sensory modalities through which all of life is lived What sensory clarity is and how you can achieve it Why unified mindfulness is different than anything else What trauma really means, and how to be an empathetic witness Resources: Join the free XCHANGE Awakening Conscious Leadership workshop. During this experiential workshop, you are going to find out how to move from a state of reactivity into one of creativity, discover the neuroscience-based frames for becoming more mindful, experience a process for becoming more aware, learn how to transform stress into an energy source to meet your greatest challenges. https://xchangeapproach.com/IGACL101  Website: https://xchangeapproach.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonberghoff/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/xchange-approach Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/XChangeGuide/ Post-Pandemic Trauma Jon Berghoff is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach. His company helps facilitate meaningful dialogue and change at an accelerated pace. Jon is a three-time guest on the Intentional Greatness podcast, and he is back again to share his wealth of knowledge on the practice of mindfulness. In this episode, Jon and Sue discuss trauma and what is happening in the world post-pandemic. Jon takes us on a tour of our senses and shares how this practice can help you become less reactive to stressful events. Becoming Adaptive Jon shared a great sentiment from an interview with the founders of Google saying, “what matters most to us is our evolutionary advantage. We talked about what that means over time. So it's not our competitive advantage right now. It's our ability to adapt to change our evolutionary advantage over time. That's what matters most to us.” Jon continues on to describe the importance of being adaptive to stress, rather than reactive. Sensory Tour Jon takes us on a tour of our senses, by leading us to take note of what we see, feel, and hear without passing judgment on our thoughts or feelings. He explains what a pivotal tool mindfulness is to become less reactive. Jon also explains that the unique advantage of this specific practice is that you don't need to do anything other than take note of your senses. Come on a sensory tour with us during this episode of the Intentional Greatness podcast.

This week we're thinking about: How to create belonging and understanding in these challenging times.Whether you're leading a company, a community, a small team or a large team, creating a space where folks feel empowered, autonomous, valued and connected is essential to your success. Right now, at the time of this recording, we're still in the midst of the global pandemic, and North American society feels more divided than ever. What if, as business owners and leaders, we had the power to create spaces of belonging and understanding in these divided times? On today's episode Saiyyidah Zaidi is asking just that question. In a practical sense, she's in the midst of developing and launching The Center For Belonging and Understanding, a community and platform business in the diversity, equity, and inclusion space. Saiyyidah's learning about what it takes to build a community and a business almost from scratch, and most importantly and obviously how to create a space where belonging and understanding are at the heart of everything they do. Lucky for Saiyyidah, you and I, Jon Berghoff joined us today, and I couldn't think of a better person to talk to about this! Jon Berghoff is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, a scientific approach to unlocking collective wisdom in any group.As Jon says, these are extraordinary times, which call for exponential conversations. Which is why innovative leaders, like Saiyyidah and I, have run to XCHANGE as the solution for bringing together companies, communities, clients, and customers in powerful ways.Before COVID-19, XCHANGE was leaned on by companies like Facebook, BMW, and Costco, to facilitate powerful, large scale conversations... when the stakes were highest.Since the COVID-19 outbreak, change agents of every type: educators, entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants and thought leaders... are using XCHANGE to create connection, community and accelerated learning in every imaginable environment. Digitally, and now face-to-face again.Saiyyidah Zaidi (whose name literally means female leader) is an experienced facilitator, coach, and supervisor working internationally and across sectors. She qualified as an Architect and went on to have a very successful career in architecture before she moved on to continue her studies. Saiyyidah holds two Masters degrees with distinctions including one in Applied Positive Psychology and she is currently in the final stages of her doctorate in identity and intersectionality, where issues of power, inclusion, diversity, belonging and understanding are critically analysed.She is a firm believer that ‘words create worlds' and that by considering the language of conversations in the Diversity Equity and Inclusion space we are able to use connection as the departure point rather than difference.

Sallie Fraenkel is the founder of Mind Body Spirit Network (MBSN), Dr. Dan Diamond is the founder of NogginStorms, and Jon Berghoff is the Co-Founder and CEO of XCHANGE. Obviously, they're all running organizations created to push positive change into the world, but there's a clearer link: all three of them are members of the Living Well From Within initiative.  Living Well From Within is the work of Dr. Daniel Friedland who founded the cause to convene leading influencers to align in order to elevate humanity through conscious leadership and the values of conscious capitalism. In this episode, we take turns speaking to all of them, including Dr. Friedland, himself, who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in late 2020. His diagnosis was the catalyst that sparked a new level of growth and awakening in his work. As well as the topics of conscious capitalism and, of course, living well from within, we all discuss the incredible legacy Dr. Friedland will leave behind and the value of striving to use our lives for the betterment of the world.

In this time of accelerated change and complexity, companies and communities need change agents to help unlock collective wisdom – and they need it NOW. This new breed of leaders, coaches, experts, and guides are the ones that know how to design human interactions that create psychological safety, accelerate widespread learning, and bring out whole new possibilities in teams and communities. As the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, now used by hundreds of change agents globally, Jon Berghoff focuses on the art of question design, the science of engineering conversations, and the change that is possible at speed and scale using the XCHANGE Approach. When COVID hit, industry-leading companies and communities utilized XCHANGE (all remote & digital) to solve unprecedented problems, reimagine a new future, and create new ways of working together. This explosion of demand for online facilitation has driven XCHANGE revenues up 40% above 2019. As a former executive for Vitamix – where revenue grew by 400% in 4 years – and an adjunct teacher at Case Western Reserve University's globally ranked Weatherhead School of Management, Jon's refreshing approach combines scientific research and real experience for one of the most relevant conversations today. What you'll learn about in this episode: What Jon did not believe in before Covid The best way of unlocking wisdom in a room Why valuing the passing of information is going to go away The guiding principles for running an event How technology affects integrated experiences What happens if you don't ask good questions in business How Jon's customers influenced his business early on The difference between superficial questions and deep questions Resources: Website: https://xchangeapproach.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonberghoff/ The Business of Connecting Jon Berghoff is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach. His company helps facilitate meaningful dialogue and change at an accelerated pace. Jon is a second time guest on the Intentional Greatness podcast, and Sue has seen his work firsthand in his virtual events. In this episode, Jon and Sue discuss how Jon was able to pivot in 2020 and shift his business to a hybrid model. Pivot Inducing Questions At the beginning of the pandemic, Jon found himself sitting in uncertainty like most of us. During a conversation, he was asked, “if Covid was not going away – what business would put your business out of business?” Jon explains why this question was so crucial to changing his business model. It's important to be able to pivot and adapt to changes. Jon shares how he pivoted during the pandemic, after hearing this one question. Redefining The Workplace Jon initially thought that his business could only be done through in-person live events. After the pandemic he realized that he needed to adapt. But, shifting an entire business model is difficult. The challenges of integrating a live and virtual audience are complex. During our conversation, Jon shares the importance of bringing out the same level of wisdom and energy in the room while navigating multiple audiences.

As the title suggests, this week’s episode gives you 3 simple steps that you can immediately use to unlock the potential in yourself and others.

The holidays are approaching and people are rethinking how to celebrate, given the pandemic and increasing stress levels. One powerful and effective way we can support our mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being is to practice sincere appreciation for the good things in our lives that we value. Appreciation has two meanings: a feeling or expression of admiration, approval or gratitude; and to increase in value. This month, our Add Heart Call host and HeartMath President, Deborah Rozman, will talk about appreciation as a powerful core heart quality that can quickly uplift us and those we care about. Deborah's guest, Jon Berghoff, will share a process called Appreciative Inquiry that we can use during virtual or in-person holiday gatherings as well as at other times, in any conversation that allows for wisdom, intelligence and strength to be unlocked together. Jon is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, a scientific approach to unlocking collective wisdom in any group. Appreciative Inquiry is a process for searching for the best of what was, is or could be within any individual, family, group or organization. It means noticing aspects of experience in ways that bring more value to conversations and bring out the best of what's available within each of us. We'll close with a heart-focused meditation to energize our intentions to add more heart to our own appreciation and reap the benefits during the next month. A little more about our guest:Jon is the founder of the XCHANGE Approach, a scientific approach to unlocking collective wisdom in any group. These are extraordinary times calling for exponential conversations. This is why innovative leaders have come to XCHANGE as the solution for bringing together companies, communities and customers in powerful ways, including a method called Appreciative Inquiry. Jon studied under David L. Cooperrider, who created the Appreciative Inquiry approach at the Weatherhead School of Management, Case Western Reserve University.

Questions are a powerful tool. Especially when you know how to ask the right ones. Today on The Karen Kenney Show, I'm wicked excited because we're talking with super-smarty pants Jon Berghoff as he shares his journey from an executive at Vitamix to founder and CEO of XCHANGE Approach - which helps change agents, thought leaders, community leaders, coaches, and consultants unlock collective wisdom. Jon's fascinating story is filled with methodologies that taught him how leadership is no longer a solo effort, but instead a collective one. Rather than having just one “expert” on stage telling other people what to do, we can create high impact learning environments by bringing groups and communities together by sharing our wisdom and insight with one another. Jon is like a wizard when it comes to the art of question design, the science of engineering conversations and the recognition of the change that's possible at speed and scale, when you  know how to design and facilitate human interactions that create psychological safety, accelerate widespread learning and bring about whole new possibilities for people to feel seen, and for all voices to be heard and listened to. Over 350 global thought leaders, community builders and industry leading coaches and consultants have leveraged the XCHANGE Approach to facilitate transformational group experiences with their clients. When companies like BMW, Facebook, NASA & Keller WIlliams wanted to bring large groups together to solve problems, accelerate learning and reimagine a new future, they've all relied upon Jon and the XCHANGE approach. His refreshing approach is like a superpower that combines scientific research along with real life experience for one of the most relevant conversations today. I hope you guys love this conversation as much as did!

What you'll learn about in this episode: What the “collective intelligence business” is and why it is so important now more than ever How Jon helps change agents and executives unlock collective wisdom What we can do to build a stronger sense of community in a virtual environment How to create more meaningful experiences when we bring our teams together What it takes to unlock potential and collective wisdom at scale How our role as leaders has expanded, and what we can do to adapt Resources: Website: https://xchangeapproach.com/ Free Download: https://xchangeapproach.com/chasingperfection LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonberghoff https://www.linkedin.com/company/xchange-approach Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/XChangeGuide/ Unlocking Potential at Scale Jon Berghoff is the CEO and founder of Xchange, a radically effective, scientifically based, multi-disciplinary approach for leading and managing teams, organizations and learning communities, both at in-person events (retreats, conferences, summits & workshops), as well as in the virtual environment. He helps change agents unlock collective wisdom, which is more important now than ever as we work to build a sense of community in a virtual environment. In this episode of the Intentional Greatness podcast, Jon shares his story about the work he is doing to help leaders excel under any circumstances. Driven by Questions Xchange is driven by questions, and at the highest level, that is “how do we unlock potential at scale?” Jon refers to this industry as the collective intelligence business, and he never could have predicted how important it would become ten months ago. Jon's Xchange system is a blend of several processes that work in unison to accomplish big picture goals. Appreciative inquiry, human potential, and catalyzing what's possible are three of the fundamental processes that make up the framework of Xchange. Appreciative Inquiry Appreciative inquiry is a key process in Xchange because it examines what it looks like to give life to a human system. It is a search for the best of what was, is, or what could be, by designing questions and facilitating conversations around them. Appreciative inquiry has the potential to help organizations create experiences that are meaningful and worthwhile. It can build energizing environments that promote creativity and problem-solving and helps us get the most of our time together no matter what environment we are in.

What in the World is Collective Wisdom?If you ever tried to solve a problem or come up with ideas to only discover when you leaned in and asked for help that ideas began to emerge in a matter of moments - Then you experienced Collective Wisdom.  What we discuss here and look to leverage to help bring Brooke's Light to the more people is on a grander scale & we uncovered that no matter how different we are there is a higher purpose we are called for.When Brooke was receiving treatment, care and services during those eight months between May '18 & Jan '19, we met a lot of people and several have had a lifelong impact on us.  They helped the Pearson family in a multitude of ways and November 7th they reconvened on a Zoom call to unlock their Collective Wisdom with us.  Many of them had not seen each since before Brooke had passed so there were some bittersweet memories - and what was uncovered was nothing short of astounding.Mark attended a very special kind of training in Ohio in 2019 using the Xchange Approach that teaches how to facilitate conversations to unlock the power of Collective Wisdom.  He had a vision as a trainee to one day use this approach to bring together Doctors, Nurses, Teachers, Therapists and most importantly caregivers and patients to share the knowledge first hand - feel heard - and one day truly change the face of Pediatric Cancer & someday all Cancer Care.This podcast was dedicated to Kyle & Briana from the Leptomeningeal Cancer Facebook group.  The work Kyle puts into this group nothing short of miraculous.  We are so blessed to have finally got to meet them both.  God Bless you.Please go to this group to learn so much about LMD, treatments and read the stories of countless people whom have been affected by this gruesome disease.We can make a difference through awareness.Sign up at BrookesLight.org for more information Rate, Review and Subscribe to this Podcast.Stay safe & Love and Light
