Before the Meeting: 52 Printable Stakeholder Question Cards

Most work goes sideways for one of two reasons: nobody asked what the work is really for, or nobody checked who actually decides. The Two Questions Stakeholder Card Deck turns those two questions into 52 printable cards you can pull out before a stakeholder meeting, in a one-on-one, at a weekly stand-up or in a team workshop. Three question suits (Purpose, Decision, People) give you the exact words to ask, when to ask them and what a useful answer sounds like. A fourth suit, Trap, gives your team 13 short fictional scenes where work looks done but is not, with the answer hidden upside down on each card.
