Hi Lina! Nice and relatable post. I hate to tell you that curiosity has also been co-opted as a 'business wisdom' too :) eg Ray Dalio has identified it as a key trait for 'success'. But you and all the curiosity advocates are right; without curiosity you're unlikely to excel at anything. That said it is important to put some guardrails around it in order to actually achieve anything. I say this as someone who can spend a looooooong time indulging my curiosity but maybe not moving closer to any particular goal. But at least it's enjoyable!
Look up Tom Morgan. Curiosity Sherpa.
Will do. Merci Joe :)

This is the cornerstone of coaching... Leading with curiosity!
