No freaking way I was looking for one of your old videos about asking better questions, and this video pops up! You're amazing Chris, vibes were up as well. You made my morning.

[@phant00m1]

Even though I'm still learning this part, I'm already trying to teach my very young kids how to think smart and how to ask the right questions. Especially in the AI era, these skills will be more valuable than ever.

[@ungvariboriska]

Thanks

[@thefutur]

Thank you for the tip. Appreciate it.

[@JosiahPilon]

"Deploy Empathy: A practical guide to interviewing customers" is an excellent book to learn to be a proactive listener and facilitate an environment for deep understanding. Thank you so much for the awesome video Chris!

[@thefutur]

Thanks for sharing

[@formerle]

The Coaching Habit is excellent 👌 It’s one of those books that you can go reread and learn something new every time.

[@mtahiralauddin]

This is absolute gold. I am so in love with The Futur

[@SaurabhJainpeintre]

30mins of listening to this is worth so much to someone like me who is struggling to hold the position as a leader.

[@percydobson1135]

I’ve been guilty in the past of quickly offering solutions because I take verbatim the client’s self-diagnosis….been actively working on changing that and the difference is significant! 😊

[@joao_neto23]

Sou do Brasil e abri recentemente uma agência de marketing, onde eu por muitas vezes cometi este mesmo erro que você descreveu acima. Hoje marco se necessário duas e até três reuniões antes do "diagnóstico" final da empresa contratante.

[@thefutur]

That’s a great first step. Understanding and acknowledging the things we need to change.

“Really good questions frame the problem, and are 50% of the answer.” I’ve felt this a lot more in my coaching and consulting recently. I guess that means I’m making good progress!

[@BlackBoxStudiosGh]

After watching this video over a dozen times, asside marketing ideas, I realized a bigger picture that Chris Do is the hero of eliminating the rat race. He’s teaching us not to be like our parents in the 9-5 jobs, the transition of generational work life, to be pursuing our dream projects. Negotiations arent easy to learn if you have no experienced person to teach you the skills.

[@fritz-loho]

Amazing learning material as always! Thank you

Questions are like shovels. Answers are like diamonds.

[@nicolinewsom7179]

The first question is the shovel, the second, third, and fourth question are the sifters to find the gold.

[@fabulousswag6683]

The Anatomy of question,can also be liken to types of test. As leading on question can be liken to True or false and Yes or no question or test. (1) True or false. 2) Multi choice 3)Essay 4)Fill in the blank. And life is like a blank slate or open cheque,wherein you are required to fill the blank blw your date of birth and death.

Can someone share the title of the books Chris talks about?

[@treykinzer]

What is more important the Question or the Answer? It depends, are you asking the Question or giving the Answer. If you are asking, the Answer is more important; but if you are giving, the Question is more important. In other words what the other person/party is sharing speaks volumes to their state of mind, concerns and focus.

You can tell the relevance of what you offer to your audience by their engagement.

[@Path_to_becoming_HIM]

Very similar to SPIN Selling

[@SeanBogue]

Chris, what are your thoughts about , someone aggressively steering client away from what they want? I talking as if, hurting the company or creative team's ability to do exactly what the client is requesting? This person talking to the client, is the project manager, and Owner of the company. We get many requests that are not out of our league, especially at the point our team is well over 40 years of experience, and clients will pay and ask for us to do their requests, because of the trust and confidence we display, and word of mouth advertising.

[@thefutur]

What’s the real questions you want to ask?

[@SeanBogue]

@thefutur isn't the show of confidence in your work, how you build that long-term relationship with potential clients? it's just as contagious as the opposite side actions.

[@talkinghat88]

Great show. Too bad about the audio.

[@Marvelous-i1c]

[@jamesseymour6786]

Joe Rogan should have you on his podcast

[@zeitakulobusta]

Answers and immediate solutions is much more a guys thing. 'Oh you should just XYZ'. No dude, shut up and listen - the client knows way more than you ever will - it's their business. Question, repeat and rephrase answers and once you've parsed out the essentials turn the lens of your expertise on the insight they've given you.

Hi Chris, you asked for a question after drafting out the Anatomy, here's what I came up with putting that into consideration. "Tell me how your environment has impacted your business and brand in terms of consistency?" I'm learning how to ask questions, I'd really appreciate the feedback. Thank you 😊

[@Ng8v_Sanity]

Questions are more valuable because everyone you meet knows something you previously didnt. your questions could also be something someone else is afraid to ask. Answers can be misinterpreted, Questions are usually understood by everyone in the room.

100M to take care of just 40000 immigrants? Whoa, that can't be true. And then you reduce services that my tax dollars paid for? I'm an independent voter have been since I was a teenager. I've always lean left when it comes to social issues. But this is ridiculous. Allowing China and our adversaries to come by our properties in our land and do business within our borders, to millions of immigrants, decrease our way of life, is not how that is supposed to work.
