Thoughtful, provocative, and actionable, these beautiful questions can be applied immediately to bring about change in your work or your everyday life. Inspired by the book we started to experiment more, and what is the best place to start than your own family.

To find a “problem” that’s worth devoting your creative efforts to solve, start with a high interest level—meaning it touches on something that matters to you.Also at the end are strategies for how to generate your own questions to develop a questioning-lifestyle. Berger’s book lays out a comprehensive list of questions aimed at spurring creativity and critical thinking. That book made the case that questioning is often the starting point of innovation and growth—a concept that has resonated in the business world and beyond. She is passionate about all things related to books and loves helping authors navigate the world of social media for book promotion. And how can we ask the kinds of great questions that make us better at leading, deciding, connecting, and creating?

It's both a framework for living your life (ask questions) and a how-to for improving yourself (ask these questions).And that sense of hypocrisy and sanctimoniousness makes this book a lot less easier to enjoy than it would have had I been able to appreciate the shared attitude of questioning that the author and I possess in common. I guess that this natural interest in people and my believe in the power of questions is what drew me to this book.

You can make the “challenge” question more specific (“on this project”) or more general (“in your job”). This profound book shatters that assumption, showing that the more vital skill is asking the right questions….The questions Warren Berger raises in A MORE BEAUTIFUL QUESTION are thoughtful, provocative, odd, serious, and silly, but in every case they are indeed the kind of ‘beautiful questions’ that can help us identify the right problems and generate creative solutions. Everyone loves it when you show interest in who they are, what their opinion is about something or what they are currently working on. Share your values by way of a story — and boil it down to a line or two that sums up what you’re “about” as a leader.
