Interviews
Face-to-face or virtual interviews captured in video, audio or by written means can be invaluable tools for learning about and understanding how successful people considered and took effective action in their life situations.
Interviews are usually conducted by editors of EIX and follow a straightforward format of questions. However, we encourage any member of the EIX community to make an interview proposal. We want to avoid having an interview conducted and then not accepted by EIX. Accordingly, we ask that interviews go through a proposal step before the interview is conducted, using the EIX interview format.
