Better Questions Lead to Better Decisions
Experience is not knowing everything. It is knowing what to ask next and when to bring in the right expert.
When water enters a lot, begin with where it is coming from. When quotations propose different solutions, ask why. When an expert recommends action, ask what happens if the work is not done.
Good judgement begins before the answer.
The quality of a decision often depends on the quality of the question asked before it. Checking facts, challenging assumptions and involving the right expertise is professional judgement—not uncertainty.
Before recommending an outcome, write down the problem you are actually solving, the facts still missing and the expert input that may be required.
