Tough Cards

These are tough cards? Cards full of questions that will serve as inspiration for something deeper than mere “conversation”, cards that will make the most boring and stilted dinner or meeting personal and exciting. This is a deck of cards that will enable people to talk to each other … for real.

Tough Cards are filled with thought-provoking, challenging and, for some of us, dangerous questions.

How do you use them?
There are different cards and questions for different occasions. In this deck of cards there are General, Present and New Year cards. You use the General category whenever a group of people come together, for instance at a dinner, and you think it would be interesting to talk about something out of the ordinary. The Present category is meant for people who meet each other fairly frequently and want to keep up to date on how things are. Finally, the New Year category presents an opportunity to bring things to a close and sum up the year that has passed.

There are many ways to use these questions. One way is to let chance decide the question to be answered. Another way is to choose questions for each other.

A few voices about Tough Cards:
I´ve had some fantastically rewarding conversations with my close ones based on the Tough Cards. One is really challenged to say things that otherwise might not be said, and oftentimes it is more the positive things that get to be expressed. Just recently with my sister. Indeed a very strong experience for the both of us. Thank you so much! … And also we are looking forward to the next release with new questions!
Best regards, Thekla

We brought out the Tough Cards on the big family reunion. It went really well, the kids joined and we had a great time. Everyone chose to answer the questions as “tough” as they wanted. Hopefully it will be a bit tougher the next time!

Hello!
We used the cards on our kick-off last week. Before we used to think that we were a pretty tight group of sales people. But after one evening with the cards it has really created a so much more deeper understanding of our different personalities and backgrounds. It was a truly a great evening and exercise.
Says Harry, sales manager

Used the cards this Saturday when we had some guests over and the great thing was that our children participated and said things that we would never have expected. It´s only us adults that have this preconception that they would not be able to answer profound powerful questions, questions that really take them seriously.
Great fun!

Hello.
Just wanted to let you know that I and my husband flipped through the cards the other night and realized that we do not have any friends that we could use the Tough Cards on!?
