While 95% of workers describe themselves as curious, only 30% say their workplace strongly rewards curiosity. Nearly four in 10 workers admit they\u2019ve pretended to understand something rather than ask a question. Meanwhile, more leaders are turning to AI instead of colleagues for answers, reflecting a workplace culture that increasingly prioritizes speed and efficiency over curiosity.<\/p><p>\nThis raised an uncomfortable question: What happens when curiosity disappears entirely?<\/p><p>\nTo find out, on Thursday, June 25, 2026, SurveyMonkey is staging a familiar work nightmare: a 90-minute (because, of course it is 90 minutes) go-to-market brainstorm meeting where no actual brainstorming takes place.<\/p><p>\nThe meeting will be livestreamed on <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fevents%2F7473011679245737986%3FviewAsMember%3Dtrue&amp;esheet=54555994&amp;newsitemid=20260617023776&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=LinkedIn&amp;index=3&amp;md5=1f646f8be38bc52aa85e7104d9e8f305\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">LinkedIn<\/a> and feature a cast of Los Angeles improv performers portraying familiar workplace characters, including:<\/p><ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nThe executive who loves the sound of their own voice<\/li>\n<li>\nThe colleague who asks AI before asking a teammate<\/li>\n<li>\nThe office naysayer who insists every idea is \u201cnot gonna work\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\nThe employee who would rather remain confused than risk asking a question and being judged<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n\u201cMost companies say they value curiosity, but too often we reward speed over exploration and certainty over asking questions,\u201d Miserany said. \u201cCuriosity is the first step toward innovation, improvement, and avoiding costly mistakes. Without it, can a team still work together? Can they make good decisions? Or does everything fall apart? At the World\u2019s Most Uncurious Meeting, we\u2019ll find out.
