Join us in this episode as we dive into the art of building open and trusting relationships with Peter Schein. In 2013, Peter’s father, Edgar wrote Humble Inquiry: The Gentle Art of Asking Instead of Telling. Since then, Peter has contributed to the second and third edition of the book to bring a fresh perspective on how to see human conversational dynamics and relationships, presented in a compact, personal, and eminently practical way. 

Why do we need Humble Inquiry more than ever? Peter sits down to explain…

Join in to discover:

  • How to curiously ask people what’s going on in their world.

  • The key differences between inquiry and interrogation. 

  • The power of asking instead of telling.

  • How to confidently navigate challenges inherent in today’s workplace.

Peter is the co-founder and CEO of the Organizational Culture and Leadership Institute in Menlo Park, California. He contributed to the 5th edition of Organizational Culture and Leadership (2017) and brings more than 30 years of experience in the technology sector. His career spans leadership roles in marketing, corporate development, and strategy at both emerging startups and global IT leaders such as Apple, SGI, and Sun Microsystems. 

In driving new strategies and integrating smaller ventures into larger enterprises, Peter developed a deep expertise in the organizational and cultural challenges that innovation-driven companies face.
