This document is a background course on effective advising in statebuilding and peacebuilding contexts. Asking powerful, compelling questions that matter is a central skill of an adviser, mentor or coach, or of a thought leader, seeking to catalyze in others the energies to develop competencies and capacities and to move towards a stronger future.
