This study examines the content and process contingencies for successfully debriefing the Situational Outlook Questionnaire (SOQ). The two questions that guided inquiry were 'What impact did a debrief of the SOQ have on a single leader and his organization?' and 'What were, the implications of these data for developing debriefing skills when using the SOQ. The method used was an action research study of a single leader within a single site. The design was qualitative and reflective in nature. Three triangulated data points were established, the SOQ debrief session, the researcher's log, and a follow-up interview. Using the technique of constant comparison, all three data sets were examined in light of the study's questions. Results provide insight into the development of debriefing guidelines for SOQ practitioners; understanding some impacts of an SOQ intervention; and some future considerations for practitionrs and researchers.
