Grounding
Establishes a model for listening w/ respect, a knowing that each person will be heard.
Establishes a verbal territory for each participant, a sense of potential equity
Requires access to both the left & the right brain, engaging the "whole brain”.
![Page 15: Conflict resolution in west africa hmi](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062711/55bfe55ebb61eb1e278b465a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Grounding (cont’d)

Worst Possible Outcomes
These are feared future outcomes, often based on past experience, w/ a presently experienced emotion & physical reaction. When people believe them, they affect their perceptions, beliefs, values & strategies. They tend to be self-fulfilling prophecies when strongly held.

Best Possible Outcomes
These are hoped for future outcomes, sometimes not previously experienced, but intensely imagined, w/ a presently experienced emotion & physical response. When people believe them, they affect their perceptions, beliefs, values & strategies. They tend to be self-fulfilling prophecies when strongly held.

04/15/23 www.aboutlistening.com 23
Possibility Thinking
An acknowledgment that both worst & best outcomes are present & inherent in each moment, up to, & often after the event. This balanced view allows the movement toward desired outcomes.

THE SITUATION? WHAT BELIEFS / BEHAVIORS / STRATEGIES /
ACTIONS WILL FOSTER THE BEST OUTCOMES?

THE REASONS IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY BY 50% WITHOUT CHEMICAL
FERTILIZERS We don’t like to work hard The soil is too poor The average farmer has no other ideas besides
chemical fertilizer that could increase production that radically. If there is such a thing, we don’t know about it.
Can’t be done without chemical fertilizer because there isn’t enough rain, and the soil is too poor

GIVEN THAT IT’S IMPOSSIBLE, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO
INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY BY 50% WITHOUT CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS?
Parking animals on the land to accumulate manure Rotation Leguminous trees (Acacia albida) Contour barriers (lines of stones along the contour) Fallow Intercropping grains and leguminous plants OR
mixing small patches of different crops
