Hey, communicators, let’s play, ‘Would you rather…’
Have you ever played the game that requires you to choose between two unsavory options? Here’s a version for communications pros.
On long car trips, my kids will often play “Would You Rather?”
If you haven’t played, the game poses a question beginning with, “Would you rather…” and then offers a choice between two good options or a choice between two equally unattractive options. Answering “neither” or “both” is against the rules.
With my kids, their questions mostly involve superpowers (Would you rather be invisible or be invincible?); eating things (Would you rather eat a bug or moldy bread?); and school activities (Would you rather be in the science lab all day, or in art class all day?).
Listening to their game made me think about “would you rather” questions for corporate communicators.
So, Ragan readers, which would you rather do?
