If you were in a rowboat with your team, how many of them would you want to have row? Might your answer be all of them? How happy would you be if you ended up being the only one rowing? Probably not so much. Why then would you want to tackle the challenges, opportunities, problems, and changes needed in your company by telling your staff what they should do?
Why would you not want to get all their oars in the water by asking them, “What do you think?” This one simple step has the potential to notably increase your leadership effectiveness! Leading with questions takes preparation, intentionality, discipline, and practice. Good news! If I can move from telling to asking, so can you!
Bob Tiede, author of Great Leaders Ask Questions, has been on the staff of Cru for 45 years and currently serves on the U.S. Leadership Development Team. He is passionate about seeing leaders grow and multiply their effectiveness. Listen in to a 30-minute webinar with Bob and Becky Robinson, and learn how to increase your leadership effectiveness by going from telling to asking.
