Cigdem Yorgancioglu ChiCi Talks is a format of interviews conducted with experts in their fields, who work multidisciplinarily and keep alive a sense of curiosity, lifelong learning, and openness to new experiences, contributing value to society. These individuals include diplomats, technocrats, scientists, bureaucrats, legal professionals, academics, athletes, artists, thought leaders, innovators, professionals in social responsibility projects, successful leaders, and esteemed business figures recognized as pioneers in their country and the world. The format emphasizes interaction with all kinds of individuals and entities, aiming to add value to society through “valuable contributions,” while completely avoiding negative, confrontational, and divisive attitudes. It advocates for approaching others impartially, transparently, independently, and with sustainability in mind, while also embracing constructive critical thinking without excluding a friendly, courteous, and sincere approach. Chi Ci Talks, although sometimes mistakenly referred to as interviews or wrongly expressed in traditional formats, fundamentally goes beyond the concept of interviews, which typically involve sharing content with viewers based on pre-prepared scripted questions, lacking any real relationship. The improvisational skill in the broadcasts originates from the obligation of the interviewer to understand the interviewee’s areas while sitting across from them through qualified and labor-intensive research and reading. Considering the value of both the interviewer’s and interviewee’s time, cliché questions or directive interventions are not imposed on the interviewee. The concept of interview series can be referred to based on specific topics with names such as Ci-Cademic (Academic Talks), Politi-Chi Talks (Politics), Chi-conomic Talks (Economy, Finance, Banking, Economic Theories), Art-Chi Talks (Art), Ener-Chi Talks (Energy), Technolo-Chi Talks (Technology), etc.
