The Power of Questions in Relationships

Questions serve as the foundation for all types of relationships, whether personal or professional. Every interaction begins or ends with a question that shapes the connection, such as introductions or inquiries about feelings and circumstances. However, the quality of questions greatly impacts the depth of these connections. Open-ended questions, like asking someone about the best part of their day, invite reflection and promote richer conversations instead of superficial exchanges.
