I designed and facilitated a peer learning workshop at SXSW last week. I strongly believe that a workshop, panel, master class, or even a keynote that is interactive is more engaging, people pay attention, they make connections to what they already know and are far more likely to apply it.

As a culture, we value answers over questions because answers allow us to take action faster, while asking questions makes us think.
