Synopsis
In his commencement address to the graduating class of 2016, James E. Ryan, dean of the Harvard University Graduate School of Education, offered remarkable advice to the crowd of hopeful men and women eager to make their mark on the world. The key to achieving emotional connections and social progress he told them, can be found in five essential question Wait, what I wonder if . . . Couldn't we at least How can I help What truly matters "Wait, what" is at the root of all understanding. "I wonder" is at the heart of all curiosity. "Couldn't we at least" is the beginning of all progress. "How can I help" is the basis of all good relationships. And "what truly matters" gets you to the heart of life. By regularly asking these questions, Ryan promises, you will be prepared to enthusiastically answer "Yes" to one final--and, ultimately, most important--question: "And did you get what you wanted out of life, even so" In this thoughtful, illuminating book, Ryan builds upon his wildly popular and universally praised address which has been viewed more than four million times online. Wait, What offers further insights into the art of asking good questions, highlighted by hilarious and surprising anecdotes from Ryan's personal and professional life, as well as stories from politics, popular culture, and social movements throughout history. Engaging and inspiring, Wait, What will change the way you look at yourself and the world, and, in the process, help you get what you want most out of life., Based on the wildly popular commencement address, the art of asking (and answering) good questions by the dean of Harvard University's Graduate School of Education Whether we're in the boardroom or the classroom, we spend far too much time and energy looking for the right answer. But the truth is that questions are just as important as answers, often more so. If you ask the wrong question, for instance, you're guaranteed to get the wrong answer. A good question, on the other hand, inspires a good answer and, in the process, invites deeper understanding and more meaningful connections between people. Asking a good question requires us to move beyond what we think we know about an issue or a person to explore the difficult and the unknown, the awkward, and even the unpleasant. In Wait, What, Jim Ryan, dean of Harvard University's Graduate School of Education, celebrates the art of asking-and answering-good questions. Five questions in particular: Wait, what; I wonder . . . ; Couldn't we at least . . . ; How can I help; and What truly matters Using examples from politics, history, popular culture, and social movements, as well as his personal life, Ryan demonstrates how these essential inquiries generate understanding, spark curiosity, initiate progress, fortify relationships, and draw our attention to the important things in life-from the Supreme Court to Fenway Park. By regularly asking these five essential questions, Ryan promises, we will be better able to answer life's most important question: "And did you get what you wanted out of life, even so" At once hilarious and illuminating, poignant and surprising, Wait, What is an inspiring book of wisdom that will forever change the way you think about questions., New York Times Bestseller " What, What? is a welcome--and joyful--reminder that true wisdom comes from asking the right questions.
