Asking Questions

Questions

Most of the questions we ask at first aren’t necessarily dumb, but they’re easy to get answers to.

They are questions to develop a benchmark of knowledge so you’re on the same playing field as others.

Then the hard questions begin to happen. The ones people might not have the answer to or if they do, your gut is telling you its wrong.

They are questions that make you uncomfortable because you’re stretching into the unfamiliar and making it about others in the room as much as you are about you.

If we can just keep going beyond the pressure of status roles in the room or the feeling of absent confidence when asking a question or the underlying belief that if we ask a question then there is only one right and one wrong answer, then – only then – can we begin to deeply engage with one another, challenge the status quo and actually make change happen.

Stay Positive & Yea, All It Takes Is A Question Or Two (Or Three)
