The Book of Beautiful Questions From the bestselling author of A More Beautiful Question, hundreds of questions that harness the magic of inquiry to tackle challenges we all face-at work, in our relationships, and beyond.
When we're confronted with almost any demanding situation, the act of questioning can help guide us to smart decisions in the face of uncertainty. But the questions must be the right ones; the ones that cut to the heart of complexity or enable us to see an old problem in a fresh way.
In The Book of Beautiful Questions, expert “questionologist” Warren Berger shares illuminating stories and compelling research on the power of inquiry. Drawing from the insights and expertise of psychologists, innovators, effective leaders, and some of the world's foremost creative thinkers, he presents the essential questions readers need to make the best choices when it truly counts, with a particular focus in four key areas: decision-making, creativity, leadership, and relationships.
About the Author Warren Berger is a longtime journalist (The New York Times Magazine, Wired, GQ, Reader's Digest), book author, and speaker who has written about a variety of subjects over the years—creativity, innovation, and questioning being particular favorites.
He has interviewed and studied hundreds of the world’s leading innovators, designers, and creative thinkers to analyze how they ask fundamental questions, solve problems, and create new possibilities.
Over the past 10 years, Warren has zeroed in on the power of questioning in our lives. It's a skill we all have innately but it falls into disuse for many of us as we move through school and the business world. And that's a shame. On his blog amorebeautifulquestion.com and in articles for Fast Company and the Harvard Business Review he's written about why questioning leads to innovation, how it can help you be more successful in your career, and how we can all get better at asking the kind of “beautiful questions” that spark change in our businesses and lives.
