What’s The Best Question You’ve Asked Today?

ByKevin

Someone once asked me that very question, and to be honest I was stumped.

Since then I’ve tried to ask, and answer at least one useful question every day.

I figure this will be a neat direction for this blog, I will share some of the questions I have asked and some of the answers that I have found.
As I have said in a previous post I fancy myself a bit of a jack-of-all-trades, and as such the questions that I ask and get in to tend to bounce among a variety of topic and industries.

So what is the best question you have asked today?

    At the heart of it, nonprofits exist because the system doesn’t work. In theory a free market at its peak has no problem with housing, or hunger, or healthcare. Everyone has a job and market forces respond to ensure the maximum number of people are fully participating in the system. In practice this is all…

  • Don’t disrupt yourself

    I recently heard a great episode if six pixels of separation with guest Bob Knorpp. They ended up in a fairly heated debate about the idea of disruption. The tech industry as a whole seems fascinated with the idea of disruption. If the newest sexy startup isn’t ‘disrupting the industry’ it’s not actually all that…

  • Process v. Impact
