Conflict Owner's Manual

74 What makes a good question the right question?

Dr. Deborah Sword, with co-host Tyson Bankert Season 3 Episode 74

A good question is the right question for the conflict you’re having. You’ve heard the expression: there’s no such thing as a silly question. But, in conflict, some questions keep a conflict going, escalate the conflict and/or inflame hard feelings. Here are examples of good and not-so -good questions.

show notes:
