Lively conversations at your fingertips

The silent majority speaks

In group discussions and workshops, a few outspoken participants often dominate, while a large part of the group - the silent middle - drops out. This leads to black-and-white discussions in which nuances are lost.

What is QandR?

QandR breaks through black-and-white discussions and gives voice to the silent middle. With interactive talking boards, participants individually take positions, which are visually displayed. This allows the facilitator to steer the dialogue in a targeted way and everyone contributes, including those who normally remain silent.

What do we need?

The smartphones of your participants. That's it. With the help of their smartphones, all participants simultaneously express their opinions on a central screen.

What does QandR offer us?

QandR uses different work formats such as the moodboard, pointer, the dilemma and of course the wordcloud. Grade a design or slogan and arrive at the average group grading. Stimulate the discussion by asking participants to take a position and show hesitation (dilemma), brainstorm visually with each other (moodboard) and give the opportunity to upvote other opinions, so that the more introverted participants can also have their say (wordcloud). There are many, many possibilities, see all our work formats

What makes QandR different?

During Corona, you will undoubtedly have come across several tools, but QandR is different. The most important thing is its simplicity of use. We're proud that QandR was recently used during a residents' meeting at a retirement home. This proves that less digitally trained people can also use the tool. In addition, QandR really focuses on deepening the dialogue, by visualising the opinions of the 'silent middle' and recognising and acknowledging nuances through the various work forms. Participants in a QandR session have an active and concentrated attitude and experience much understanding for each other because the QandR visualisations work as an open playing field in which everyone's voice is visible. This not only gives the discussion leader very concrete tools to structure the conversation, it also helps the participants to think less in black and white and to adopt a more constructive attitude in the dialogue.
