neutral  Frankie JB: Questions embarrassantes me paraît très bien ! /// Après plus de réflexion je pense que "embarrassant" fait trop ressortir le négatif / ne transmet pas assez bien la première idée de question ciblée... Et "pertinent" pas assez fort / trop courant..

disagree  Daryo: the wrong slant - whether the crunchy questions are embarrassing / unpleasant or not is simply irrelevant.

questions incisives


Explanation:
Une autre possibilité ?

Ça me semble cohérent au vu de la définition :

That's where crunchy questions come in to lay the groundwork for action. They are practical, detailed inquiries into tough business issues - roll-up-your-sleeves questions for people who don't have time to mess around with fluff.

Learn more about how business analytics can deliver uncommon insights and breakout value. It all starts with asking crunchy questions - and ends with getting answers you can trust.

J'entends par "questions incisives" des questions ciblées qui vont droit au but, qui consistent à répondre par oui ou par non à une problématique stratégique (par ex : est-ce que oui ou non le fait d'externaliser tel ou tel service permettra d'augmenter les marges sous 2 ans ?), typiquement celles auxquelles les Big Data ou l'analytique doivent permettre de répondre...

questions mordantes?


Explanation:
questions tranchantes? questions audacieuses? pénétrantes?

S'il s'agit de "Crunchy Questions for Sticky Issues" (et si l'illustration pomme au caramel croquant doit être préservée), j'opterais pour "mordantes". (Sinon: Questions tranchantes pour les situations/questions épineuses?)

Sans le contexte, je ne peux être certaine de la qualité de cette traduction. J'étais initialement tentée par questions épineuses (il s'agirait de situations, d'enjeux)

neutral  Daryo: the crunchy sound of "pomme au caramel croquant" is just a visual gag / a pun on "the crunch = the crux of the matter"; doesn't really sound right when translated this way.// if they want a play on words, they should use different visuals in French

  -> Thank you for using the "neutral" option. I do prefer questions tranchantes myself.

Questions tranchantes


Explanation:
précises, qui coupent net, dans le vif...

voir http://www.radio-canada.ca/regions/ontario/2010/09/23/004-ha...

On y utilise "questions mordantes" et "questions tranchantes"
