Once in a while, when I sit down to devour a new book, it isn’t long before I realize it’s the kind of book I need to refer to my friends and colleagues because I can’t stop thinking about how much they could be helped by it.

The book I’m featuring in today’s episode is just such a book!

The author of this book is Stephen Shapiro. He’s written six previous books, including Best Practices Are Stupid.

He’s also a regular columnist for Inc., and is in the Speaker Hall of Fame.

Stephen’s latest book is called Invisible Solutions: 25 Lenses that Reframe and Help Solve Difficult Business Problems, and it’s a book I think every leader should read. And, it’s a book you should be encouraging your team to read as well.

In today’s episode, I ask Stephen about:

• Why many of us struggle when it comes to asking the right questions
• The impact of asking the wrong questions
• We’ll dive into some of his super helpful “lenses” for reframing our questions
• And lots more!
