TLDRThe video emphasizes the importance of asking the right questions for effective decision-making. It introduces a structured approach using a set of questions known as the Five W's: What, Where, When, Who, and Why, including How. The method originates from the presenter's training as a bomb disposal officer and has been expanded by adding 'Which' to inspire options and assess risks. This expanded method forms "The Right Questions," a technique ensuring comprehensive decision-making and planning. The framework is based on commonly used interrogative words, making it intuitive and easy to apply in various languages.

    The speaker discusses the significance of asking the right questions for effective decision-making. Emphasizing that without the right questions, we won't get the necessary information to make informed decisions. The speaker mentions that decision-making is often taken for granted due to its routine nature in daily life. However, intuition, while useful, has its limits, making it crucial to develop a structured understanding of decision-making. Quoting John Dewey, the speaker asserts that a well-posed problem is half-solved. The speaker introduces the 'Five W's' technique learned as a bomb disposal officer, which includes asking What, Where, When, Who, and Why, later supplemented with How, forming a checklist for situational analysis. Further research led to the addition of 'Which' to enhance choice and risk consideration, turning the method into a complete decision-making cycle. This methodology, called 'The Right Questions', is easily recalled and applicable across languages, offering a structured approach to decision-making and planning.

  • 00:00:00
    what are the right questions to help
  • 00:00:03
    make good decisions this is a question
  • 00:00:06
    i've been exploring for my whole career
  • 00:00:08
    good questions are essential if we want
  • 00:00:10
    to get the right information if we don't
  • 00:00:12
    ask the right questions we won't get the
  • 00:00:14
    answers we need without the necessary
  • 00:00:16
    information we won't be able to make
  • 00:00:18
    good decisions we generally take
  • 00:00:20
    decision making for granted after all we
  • 00:00:23
    make thousands of choices every day
  • 00:00:25
    subconscious some unconscious and rarely
  • 00:00:28
    need to apply more than our intuition to
  • 00:00:30
    a decision
  • 00:00:31
    but there is a problem research has
  • 00:00:33
    demonstrated that our intuition is
  • 00:00:35
    amazing but it has limits therefore
  • 00:00:38
    understanding decision making and how to
  • 00:00:40
    make good decisions is critical to all
  • 00:00:42
    of us and good decision making starts
  • 00:00:44
    with good questions
  • 00:00:46
    as john dewey said a problem well put is
  • 00:00:49
    half solved
  • 00:00:51
    the problem with many processes and
  • 00:00:53
    tools including those used for decision
  • 00:00:55
    making is that they're often
  • 00:00:56
    non-intuitive and hard to remember that
  • 00:00:59
    is why we should start with what we
  • 00:01:01
    already know and the structures that are
  • 00:01:03
    already embedded in our language
  • 00:01:06
    when i was training as a bomb disposal
  • 00:01:07
    officer we were taught a question
  • 00:01:09
    technique called the five w's which we
  • 00:01:11
    used when we approached an incident
  • 00:01:14
    the five w's are what
  • 00:01:16
    where
  • 00:01:17
    when
  • 00:01:18
    who and why
  • 00:01:20
    to this list how is also usually added
  • 00:01:23
    this five w's and an h provides an easy
  • 00:01:26
    to remember checklist it is a useful way
  • 00:01:28
    of doing a quick situational analysis
  • 00:01:31
    the idea is that by using the five w's
  • 00:01:34
    to construct open questions you are more
  • 00:01:36
    likely to get factual answers and more
  • 00:01:38
    information while avoiding
  • 00:01:40
    presuppositions
  • 00:01:42
    as i've done further research into
  • 00:01:44
    question technique and applied the
  • 00:01:45
    principles in my work i found that it's
  • 00:01:47
    also useful to add another w that of
  • 00:01:50
    which to this list
  • 00:01:51
    the which question helps us to cover the
  • 00:01:54
    concept of selection of choice and
  • 00:01:55
    therefore helps to inspire options and
  • 00:01:58
    consider risk
  • 00:01:59
    this helps to move the tool from just
  • 00:02:01
    situational analysis to become a
  • 00:02:03
    complete decision-making cycle which can
  • 00:02:05
    also be used for planning
  • 00:02:07
    this makes seven questions in total and
  • 00:02:09
    creates an easily remembered framework
  • 00:02:12
    it's easy to recall as it's based upon
  • 00:02:14
    the most common interrogative words that
  • 00:02:16
    we use in english the methodology easily
  • 00:02:18
    translates into other languages too
  • 00:02:21
    the use and application of these seven
  • 00:02:23
    open questions is a technique i've
  • 00:02:25
    dubbed the right questions inspired by
  • 00:02:27
    the question i started with if you want
