286. Daring to Ask with Jeff Wetzler (Part 2)

Join me as I continue my fascinating dialogue with Jeff Wetzler, author of "Ask," where we unravel the art of inquiry and its potential to unlock wisdom from those around us. We venture into the 'ask approach,' a transformative five-step journey that begins with choosing curiosity. Listen in as we tackle the complexities of media influence and the critical need for quality questioning amidst a climate of sensationalism and partisanship. We'll explore how CEOs create spaces for honest dialogue within their companies, and I'll share personal anecdotes that illuminate the power of adjusting our approaches for more meaningful exchanges. You'll learn strategies for full-spectrum listening that goes beyond words to emotions and actions, setting the stage for profound connection and understanding. The conversation culminates with the 'sift and turn' method for feedback reflection, a process for discerning valuable insights from critique. We'll discuss how results and relationships are the dual pillars of success in both personal and professional realms, and Jeff's expertise shines as we pinpoint the moments when everything aligns, bringing us to those 'exactly moments' where true progress is made.
