Now, as a coach, I have seen how powerful questions can make a difference in helping a client shift their perspective about a situation or even themselves. This episode is going to be focused on helping you understand the importance of asking the right questions as a leader, whether that be in a meeting, in a one on one, in a presentation, or in Whatever you're in, you can use questions to really drive different conversations.
