Hey Friend, What is the most powerful question you ask your staff for the purpose of building awareness, confidence and belief in one's own ability?
After all, this is our role as leaders isn't it? To build capability in our team so they can operate at their best?
I remember my first coach, Lisa Cutler, asking me what I wanted in my career, which I answered quickly, and then she asked "why do you want that?"
And you know what I said?
...and then I went home and pondered my response - why did I need to prove that I could - I knew that I could...so what now...
In the months and years that followed I let go of the career path I had been pursuing for the best part of a decade and created something completely different.
I didn't want my career to be about proving something, I wanted my career to be about meaning something, and today it does.
And all I needed was one simple question!
What's your one powerful question? |
