Читать книгу Better Leaders Ask Better Questions - Lindsay Ph.D Tighe - Страница 5

Lindsay’s book is one of the few that get it right! When leaders ask questions instead of supplying answers, they include followers in the leadership process. They also draw on a deeper pool of wisdom and experience than their own.

Some followers are outsmarting their leaders by giving them ‘the hot potato’ – that is, the question they’ve been employed to answer. Among many other down-to-earth things this book teaches, is to show leaders how they can return the ‘potato’ and, at the same time, assist the person who threw it to deal with it.

She’s let the cat out of the bag! Lindsay has revealed how leaders find it easier to supply followers with answers than engage with them to solve problems that will enable both leader and follower to grow.

Lindsay writes clearly and simply, as well as with insight based on experience. Before I knew where the time had gone, I was on the last page. I also found lots of ideas I could start using the next day with our writing staff.

This is an excellent mix of theoretical understanding and practical application.
