Proust Questionnaire: What Makes You Tick, with Uli Baer and Caroline Weber

Proust Questionnaire: What Makes You Tick, with Uli Baer and Caroline Weber

by

What motivates creative people to do what they do, especially when they use their drive, determination and talents to change the world? The Proust Questionnaire is thought in action. It’s a personality test that allows us a glimpse behind the proverbial curtain of creative people’s minds. Each guest answers the same 35 questions that were first popularized as a parlor game by French novelist Marcel Proust about a hundred years ago. But these questions are timeless, and you’ll quickly find yourself thinking with our guests, rather than about their answers. Be moved, entertained, and inspired to do good yourself when you listen to our guests tell us what they love, fear, and hope for in these oral portraits of great minds.
