Show Notes

What does a remote location in The Kimberley got to do with lessons in leadership?
Are you the manager who has all the answers? OR Do you want to be the business leader who asks the right questions?
Mike talks to Stephanie about the challenge for CEOs and Business Leaders to step back from having all the answers. Leaders need to get out of the Content and coach their teams to ask the Process Questions, collectively the answer may result in a far better one.
A problem well understood and well explored is a problem that’s mostly solved. The more perspectives you give a question then you will get an idea what the real problem is.

What are our choices around what we could do? How do they meet the success measures?
This questioning technique creates deep engagement and accountability.
