Senior talent leaders know that stories move people, whether it’s winning executive buy-in, inspiring teams, or shaping organizational culture. But stories of talent development truly affecting performance don’t appear out of thin air—they start with the right conversations. Learn how “garlic press” questions—simple, purposeful, and psychologically safe—combined with preparation and trust, can unlock stakeholder insights to identify concrete performance needs and enhance learning outcomes.
