THE FOUR FOUR-LEGGED ADVENTURERS + ONEOn the outskirts of a big city, there lived four little dogs who took a walk around the neighborhood every day to stretch their legs with their owners. They spent the rest of the time on armchairs or lying in the sun in the garden.In a corner near the wall, behind the house, hidden by a tree, there were some old used and slightly broken objects. One of the dogs, named Tachi, decided to go exploring to see if there was anything interesting and found what seemed to be an old ball — but a bit strange, with a kind of leg."What could it be? It looks like a suspicious object!" she thought. "Better call reinforcements immediately. Woof, woof, woof!"The other three rushed over, barking — just in case there was someone or something to scare off."A ball, a ball!" they shouted and got into position to play.The most mischievous and smallest in size, Pippa, started to kick the object with her little paws but stopped immediately exclaiming, "Oh, but how hard this ball is!""It's hard indeed, silly, can't you see it's a globe?" said Luca and Lillo, the other two members of the family, while Tachi remained thoughtful and not entirely convinced.But once it was clear what it was, they all started to observe it as, magically turning on itself, it showed distant countries they had heard about from their owners who, to tell the truth, were great wanderers!At the end of the day, after many adventures, naps, a walk at sunset, and a good dinner, they all went to bed; but thinking about the globe, none of the four could sleep much. As soon as they closed their eyes, they began to travel with their imagination and thought of exciting adventures that transported them to unknown and fantastic places to visit.In the morning, there was a lot of whispering. "Slept well?" they asked each other. "No, I traveled to unknown countries," "I thought of flying," "I of sailing the oceans," "I climbed very high mountains."Thinking and thinking, they decided it would be really nice to turn these dreams into reality. They continued to chatter, and after a few hours, they all agreed and pronounced the fateful words: "We will be the four four-legged adventurers, traveling the world, all for one and one for all." The decision was made; but how could they start the adventure?Luca thought of the old wise dachshund Ettore, who lived in the neighborhood and was a storyteller wizard by trade. They met him almost every day during their sunset walks. Ettore, sitting in front of his house, would narrate with sparkling eyes stories of fantastic travels to a group of puppies with their owners; all intent on listening.Once they heard him tell about Paris and its majestic Eiffel Tower rising into the sky above the clouds, the imposing monuments, the huge gardens to visit and then, attention attention, croissants with butter and jam for breakfast, baguettes filled with all sorts of things for lunch, and succulent and tasty bones for dinner."Here’s who could help us: Ettore the Wizard Dachshund!” they exclaimed with joy.Immediately, sneaking out of their garden, they passed through a small gap in the fence and headed towards Ettore's house. They arrived at five o'clock sharp, and Ettore invited them in for tea with cookies. The four adventurers, between one cookie and another, told him about the globe they found by chance and their desire for adventures.The wizard dachshund, who had already guessed everything, said, "With a spell, I can accompany you around the world and visit a place of your choice."The fantastic four four-legged adventurers shouted in unison, "Let's go to Paris!"“With pleasure," replied Ettore.All ready for departure, the wizard dachshund took his super magic wand, which he tapped three times on the ground "toc toc toc", and at the words "Woofwoof and Woofwoof" small glowing stars came out; each one took a dog by the paw, lifting them into the air, and following the wizard, they set off for the adventure.At first, they closed their eyes in fear, but: "Look, look!” said their guide, and opening their eyes they saw they were flying over oceans, seas, mountains, lakes, cities, and enchanted forests: "How wonderful!”Soon, suddenly, in the distance appeared the city of Paris. Floating like feathers in the wind, in a flash, they arrived almost touching the Eiffel Tower, which with its height, pierced the clouds passing through the middle. The group landed on the roofs of Paris: “How wonderful, Paris is really magical and fascinating!"As they strolled through the streets of Montmartre, they decided to send a postcard to their owners to let them know about their trip.Address:To our house on the other side of the ocean.Third street on the right.Ninth on the left.Garden with lemon tree.Squirrels running around.Possible hummingbird sighting.City of who knows, go find out.Shipping method: Fast and magical light beam.Insured.Signature required upon delivery.After sending the postcard, they saw the famous Ferris wheel and wi

Stemming from a career-long pursuit of understanding how learning experiences can become deeper and more impactful, Wetzler identified a pervasive pattern of missed opportunities for learning—from the unspoken wisdom of people in our lives. This observation led to the inception of *Ask*, which aims to unlock the potential for breakthroughs in leadership and life by fostering deeper connections and understanding through the simple yet profound act of asking questions.The "Ask" Approach: A Deep DiveWetzler elaborates on the five key practices encapsulated in the "Ask" approach—*Choose Curiosity, Making it Safe, Asking Quality Questions, Listening to Learn,* and *Reflect and Reconnect*. These practices are not only transformative in personal development but are essential skills in leadership, fostering environments where open communication and mutual understanding flourish.1. Choose Curiosity: Breaking free from the certainty trap to harness the power of curiosity.2. Making it Safe: Creating an environment where people feel comfortable sharing their insights and stories.3. Asking Quality Questions: Distinguishing between surface-level inquiries and questions that lead to deeper understanding.4. Listening to Learn: Attuning oneself to not just the words spoken but the emotions and actions that accompany them.5. Reflect and Reconnect: Processing the information gathered and following up to deepen connections and ensure understanding.Application Beyond the Pages: Social Media and AIThe conversation navigates through the contemporary challenges of social media and artificial intelligence, platforms where the nuances of asking and listening are often lost. Wetzler advocates for using these tools to enhance rather than hinder our curiosity. From utilizing AI for brainstorming questions to fostering constructive dialogues on social media, there are ways to leverage technology to encourage genuine inquiry and learning.A Sociology of Communication: The Vital Role of InquiryWetzler's insights resonate profoundly within the sociology of communication. In a society where digital interactions often substitute personal connections, the act of asking meaningful questions and truly listening stands as a beacon of authentic human interaction. By embracing curiosity and fostering an environment conducive to open dialogue, we can transcend the often superficial exchanges that characterize our digital age, tapping into the rich tapestry of human experience and knowledge.The Transformative Power of QuestionsThis conversation between Marco Ciappelli and Jeff Wetzler serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative potential that lies in asking the right questions. *Ask* not only invites readers to rekindle their innate curiosity but also equips them with the tools to build deeper, more meaningful connections. In an era defined by rapid technological change and impersonal digital interactions, Wetzler’s message is a simple call to reclaim the simple yet profound power of human curiosity.About the BookToo often, we don’t find out what’s truly on others’ hearts and minds because we don’t know how to ask the right questions in the right ways. Co-founder of Transcend and former international business consultant and Teach for America executive Jeff Wetzler wants to show you how to fix that. In Ask, he brings you a powerful method called The Ask Approach™, based on a simple premise: that tapping into what other people truly think, know, and feel is a game-changing superpower. In Section I, Wetzler reveals the most common things that people think and feel but often keep to themselves, as well as the key reasons why they choose to withhold information that could be valuable to you and your organization.Section II delves into the five steps of the Ask Approach, each answering an essential question.Choose Curiosity: How can you awaken your curiosity to
