Connection Cards
The conversation behind every successful transition to employee ownership
What’s Inside
Each set contains 108 prompt cards, packaged in a box for drawing, with instructions included. Designed for groups of any size, from a two-person check-in to a full team session. One question at a time, prompting real conversation rather than quick answers. No facilitator training required — the cards do the work.
How teams use them:
- Warm up a meeting or workshop
- Deepen a values or culture conversation
- Onboard new people into how your team thinks
…
