A
More Beautiful Question: The Power of Inquiry to Spark Breakthrough Ideas
By Warren Berger
Popular Highlights
- A beautiful
question is an ambitious yet actionable question that can begin to shift
the way we perceive or think about something—and that might serve as a
catalyst to bring about change.
- Good
questioners tend to be aware of, and quite comfortable with, their own
ignorance
- One
of the many interesting and appealing things about questioning is that it
often has an inverse relationship to expertise—such that, within their own
subject areas, experts are apt to be poor questioners. Frank Lloyd Wright
put it well when he remarked that an expert is someone who has “stopped
thinking because he ‘knows.’”
- The
best innovators are able to live with not having the answer right away
because they’re focused on just trying to get to the next question.
- One of the telltale signs of an innovative questioner:
a refusal to accept the existing reality.
