How ‘curious’ are you? How aware are you of the questions your ask and pursue? How well do you listen and react to the questions of others? What do you do to honor, nurture, and sustain your question-asking capabilities? All of these metrics are becoming increasingly important in the work and workforce. This session will explore how we can begin to prepare students for this growing demand. I promise you will leave with more questions that you came with.
