When I started working, I remember talking with the finance director of the company that was my employer, asking me: "how has this guy become a director? I know much more than him. "

The book "Questioning: the new model of innovative leaders in the digital age" by Joseph Bradley talks about concepts and ways of thinking of today's and the future's companies that have nothing to do with what they taught me or with the companies of the past.

Concepts such as best fail quickly and try again, change to: think better you have right questions to do a business that does not fail from the beginning. Other interesting concepts are: Change the flow of things to change the result. It does not matter as much diversity as the participation of all kinds of ideas. Find your blind spot in all your questions.
