Asking the right questions can be a great and essential method of becoming an efficient and effective leader. Often we fall into habits of asking the same questions but what approach should we be taking to affect change and motivate?

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The secret of problem solving is are we finding enough problems? 
Listening is the best way to formulate our questions. If you are attentive then your team will know you value their time and opinion.
If we want to develop our people and encourage their self development then we’ve got to be asking more than just repeated set questions. 
Ask questions that keep the other person thinking. You can affect their problem solving by the nature of the questions you present.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘I genuinely believe that the secret of asking better questions is by being a better listener because if we are listening more than the person that we’re asking the questions of knows that we are interested in the answers.’ 

‘The first time that we start to listen to the answers that are given we will think about those things that are being said.’

‘The measure of success is all about the thoughts of our people and if we are creating good thoughts in our people we will get more ideas and more suggestions and we will make more improvements.’
