Running it, start to finish
- Read everything public before the conversation.
- Ask what they have changed their mind about, early.
- Agree the record and attribution terms at the start.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Targets what is not in the public literature, since anything published can simply be read.
- Asks what they have changed their mind about, which surfaces non-consensus views.
- Notes the expert's own incentives rather than treating expertise as neutrality.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Read their published work first. Asking something already answered in print signals their time is not valued and consumes the interview.
- Do not present hypotheses as positions. Experts agree politely. Describe the situation and ask what they would expect instead.
- Ask what you should have asked. It consistently produces the best material in the interview and takes ten seconds.
