It's hard when the newest executive fad is not making any decisions at all.

"I'm just here to ask the right questions".

You ain't getting paid 2 million to ask the right questions. You're here to find the answer. I can have any person off the street ask me the right questions.

I doubt that. "Asking the right question" really means being able to identify which problems exist. From the anecdotes I read on HN about dysfunctional companies, this is sorely lacking.

Actually I find with products consumers use every day, they are able to ask the right questions fairly readily.
