“If you ask, “How authentic is XYZ company?” They're not going to know where to go with that. They're going to ramble. It's not going to give you any insights and it's not going to feel fun or joyous. But if you ask them on a scale of 1 to 10 and ask them for that number, they're never going to stop at the number. It forces them to pause and be able to articulate an answer in a way that they wouldn’t be able to do if you’d just ask them.”
“They're not used to getting to reflect like that. They aren’t used to getting to have intellectual stimulation beyond PowerPoints and meetings and emails. But being asked a thoughtful question like that, there's something in them that's going to think, ‘Oh, I really like this person.’”
“You want them to feel like this is who you are. And these questions hopefully will start to program you and make you who you are.”
