Inner Development Conversation Starters

The Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies (IIS)

Contributing to societal change starts with nurturing inner development: personal growth equips individuals with the skills, attitudes and awareness needed to contribute effectively to their communities and society.

Inner Development Conversation Starters is a powerful tool for transition makers, encouraging deep reflection and dialogue. Each of the 46 cards features a thought-provoking question, based on the Inner Development Goals.

Through guided explorations of skills and attitudes, such as resilience, empathy and connectedness, these cards help you foster deeper connections with yourself and others. Perfect for pairs or small groups, the conversations sparked by these cards strengthen self-awareness and personal growth. This, in turn, amplifies the impact of change-making efforts on a larger scale.

The Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies at the University of Amsterdam, in collaboration with the EWUU alliance of Technical University Eindhoven, Wageningen University & Research, Utrecht University and University Medical Centre Utrecht, developed this card deck primarily for use in higher education. However, it also holds value for coaches, HR professionals, corporate trainers, team leaders and individuals in personal contexts.
