Damian did a great job explaining then illustrating the benefits of Clean Language through this interactive session, allowing us to experience for ourselves how just a couple simple questions can really help get the ball rolling to explore any topicr! It was fun to see fellow attendees reflect how this is really easy to apply and useful even in informal "hallway track" contexts. Definitely looking up the books recommended to dive into the topic more, thanks Damian!

It was a great talk. I loved the use of the voice channels for the exercise part.
I'm actually stoked to try it out while talking to colleages, friends, and family.

Very inspiring talk with plenty of hooks to dig deeper into. Thank you for sharing.
Do remember to articulate better when you’re on a roll, for not native English speakers (at least for me) I sometimes missed the point you were making.

I really enjoyed this talk. Lots of important take aways, most importantly the pretty obvious but somehow always overseen questions to ask. Thank you!
