From better answers to better questions

Stratos Ramoglou

Chapter 3 in Big Questions and Great Answers in Entrepreneurship Research, 2024, pp 28-47 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter argues that, instead of being on the lookout for “better answers”, we should more patiently study our questions. Drawing on previous work, it is demonstrated that we are not making good progress with several of our “big questions” because, fundamentally, they are the wrong questions - questions that rest on unexamined and largely problematic assumptions. As a way out of the search for “better answers” to flawed questions, it is recommended that a more studious engagement with our questions may not only reveal previously unidentified errors in our thinking - such studies can also further help reorient our scholarship towards more promising questions.
