People never expect random and absurd questions.

When received, people can’t seem to let them go.

Almost 100% of the time, teams become way more present when engaged with a random question.

Almost 100% of the time, teams don’t know if they should expect a random questions and are on the lookout for them.

Almost 100% of the time, a random question is welcomed with a laugh, a smile, a “really?” and a thoughtful response.

My last prompt to my team revealed the following (my team is based in Manila, Philippines):

• 100% of people surveyed approve of bacon and believe there should be more of it.

• Mexican food is delicious, but there should be other diverse cuisines available in Metro Manila.

• Apparently Philippines is not great for curing meet or hard cheeses because of the humidity.

In case you’re wondering if work gets done, it does. With a happy and productive heart.
