“Dumb questions” make us smarter.
There is a mistake most of us make when talking about questions.
We think of simple questions as “dumb.” This thought process is a major mistake.
There is a great value to someone who asks the simple questions. Simple questions aren’t “dumb.”
There is beauty in pure simplicity. Simple questions are clear and as a result, those questions make sure everyone is on the same page.
It also helps everyone in the room.
- The person who asked: An answer
- The person who responded: If the answer is available, this lets his/her know there is an opportunity to make it more available.
- Everyone in the room: The answer and the insight!
Simple questions open the world around us. They create change and show a gold mine of value when we revisit them.
