I talk often about the
power of asking questions
but I sometimes don’t talk about
how shutting up and listening
is as important. 

Recently I went to a workshop
with a fascinating host.  
Instead of letting the paid host
share her expertise with the group,
some audience members asked such long questions
that a friend was able to run out,
get a coffee
and return
before the question was done.  

A waste of a learning experience.
