What Is A Question

This talk explores what questions are, why we ask them and how we all benefit from asking good questions and avoiding bad ones.

We ask questions all the time but we rarely reflect on doing so. Yet what, who, when, where and how we ask questions can drastically effect what we end up knowing, believing and doing. This talk explores what questions are, why we ask them and how we all benefit from asking good questions and avoiding bad ones.
