Restarting the Fix It Friday series with the March 2024 episode from the Hope is NOT a Plan podcast. This episode delves into the crucial skill of asking objective questions to drive clarity and problem-solving. We explore how unbiased inquiries can empower teams and improve processes by drawing parallels to the host's diverse podcasting journey and the principles in his book The Stability Equation. Learn practical techniques to formulate effective objective questions and unlock better organizational outcomes.


How to ask:

  • Focus on "who," "what," "when," "where," and "how" questions
  • Avoid leading questions that suggest an answer
  • Phrase questions neutrally, without judgment
  • Encourage elaboration with open-ended questions


Godspeed y'all,


Kevin
