Recording Your Episode
Recording Your Episode
For the value creation stories identified in your pre-interview, expect probing questions aimed at creating a compelling story for listeners and extracting reusable knowledge from your experiences:
Examples include:
- How did you first become aware of the issue or opportunity that ultimately led to value creation?
- What convinced you of how financially consequential the opportunity would be?
- What action did you consider to capitalize on the underlying opportunity?
- Where in the P&L did you ultimately see the direct and indirect effects?
Consider your most noteworthy experiences where value was created or eroded, and identify one experience related to each of the following:
- Internal decisions/actions at your company
- Resulting from external change (e.g., market conditions)
- With a partner or collaborator
- A quiet space with minimal background noise
- Headphones (e.g., AirPods) for clear audio
- A stable internet connection
- A well-positioned camera for video recording
- Notifications turned off on your phone and computer
