Claude Levi-Strauss understood the power of questions. Coaches immediately learn the value of asking the best questions to their clients. This helps clarify issues and allows them to think of their answers to their conflicts.
Empathetic leaders know that employees want to be heard and feel comfortable using their voices. These leaders don’t tell or direct; they listen to golden nuggets coming out of the mouths of their direct reports.
The power of questions greatly impacts morale, especially in keeping employees from leaving.
This one idea can make a difference in your company.
- Do your leaders know the power of questions instead of telling others what to do?
- Are your employees listened to or ignored?
This seems obvious to many of you. I know firsthand that it’s not. My coaching clients share how they are thinking about leaving the company. They want to work where they are taken seriously.
