Better questions. Better conversations. Better work.

Work is full of questions already: status questions, calendar questions, questions that are really assignments wearing a question mark. One Question Deeper: At Work practices a different kind: the question asked because you want to know the person, and the second question that proves you listened to the first.

Its 280 questions and 560 follow-ups move through eight sections that match real work life: The People Behind the Job; How We Work; The Team; Ideas and Possibilities; Feedback and Growth; The Difficult Conversations; Leadership and Trust; and Where We're Going. Short interludes teach when to follow up and when not to, and how to notice the careful answer.

AROUND THE TABLE questions are built for groups: a team meeting, a retreat, a lunch table, a one-on-one that grew. The rule is simple: the person with the most power in the room answers last, because power changes the room. Questions range from "What do people here get wrong about your job?" and "How does credit travel on this team?" to "When has a detour turned out better than the plan?"

Use it in one-on-ones, team meetings, retreats, and hallway conversations. Skip freely. Everyone answers. Part of the One Question Deeper series of conversation books by Carl Williams.
