A More Beautiful Question (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Why does a 4-year-old girl begin to question less at age 5 or 6? And what are the ramifications of that, for her and for the world around her? If, as Einstein tells us, questioning is important, why aren’t we trying to stem or reverse its decline by finding ways to keep questioning alive? Why do some keep questioning, while others stop? (Was it something in the genes, in the schools, in the parenting?) If we look at the questioners versus the non-questioners, who seems to be coming out ahead? If we know (or at least strongly suspect) that questioning is a starting point for innovation, then why doesn’t business embrace it? Why don’t companies train people to question, and create systems and environments that would encourage them to keep doing so? If companies were to train people to question, and create systems and environments that encourage them to do so, how might they go about it? How can we develop and improve this ability to question? Can we rekindle that questioning spark we had at age four?
