Questions About Questions

Questioning skills can either unlock creative thinking—or trap your team in polite confusion—because the wrong question produces the wrong work and wastes real time. In this article, Jef Menguin shows why questions aren’t neutral, how hidden assumptions shape meetings, and how to challenge the question before you chase answers. Use this shift in your next discussion, then share it with your team so you stop making lists and start making decisions.

How to Read These Articles

1. Seek the core ideas.Start by zeroing in on the core ideas of each article. Like a bee drawn to nectar, find the essence of what’s being shared. Don’t get lost in the complexity of words; look for the straightforward, impactful messages. This simplicity is where real learning begins.

2. Connect ideas to actions. Learning isn’t just about absorbing ideas; it’s about turning them into actions. As you read, ask yourself, “How can I apply this?” Whether it’s a leadership principle or a professional development tip, think of ways to integrate these insights into your daily life. Make your actions a reflection of your learning.

3. Reflect and revisit. After reading, take a moment to reflect. What resonated with you? What challenged your thinking? Write down these reflections. And don’t hesitate to revisit the articles. Sometimes, the second or third read unveils deeper understanding or new perspectives.

4. Share and discuss. Learning grows in a community. Share what you’ve learned with colleagues or friends. Discuss the ideas. This interaction opens doors to different interpretations and insights, enriching your understanding. Plus, teaching is the best way to deepen your own learning.

5. Practice consistent curiosity. Finally, keep your curiosity alive. Every article offers a window to new knowledge, but it’s your curiosity that turns it into a doorway. Be consistently curious. Ask questions, seek more information, and always look beyond the horizon of what you know.
