In crafting this book, I’ve drawn from diverse disciplines—cognitive psychology, design thinking, leadership studies, philosophical inquiry, coaching methodologies, and more—to create a comprehensive resource on effective questioning.

In essence, this book is for the curious—those who believe there’s always more to learn, discover, and understand about themselves and the world around them.
