Your Team Needs to Think

One of your top responsibilities as a leader is to have people think for themselves. Removing obstacles for employees yourself only goes so far. So before telling people what to do next time, try asking them more questions. Voltaire said, “Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.” and his words most definitely apply to leaders. Asking great questions forces your team to think about coming up with better solutions, rather than forcing you to feed your team answers all the time. And the more people thinking about solutions, while having a common goal in mind, the better off you and your team are.
