Why Impact Is Designed, Not Accidental Powerful questions matter because influence is far removed from clever wording, and especially because the effectiveness of a question is determined by its internal structure, not its surface form.

Many coaching processes fail not because goals are unclear, options are weak, or actions are wrong — but because the human system does not have the capacity to hold…
