Session Details: Leaders are often praised for having answers. But when managers rely too heavily on giving advice, it can limit ownership, slow development, and create dependency within teams. This interactive, engaging session introduces a practical coaching-based approach to leadership that helps managers develop their people through better everyday conversations. Instead of defaulting to answers, attendees will learn how to ask simple, high-impact questions that improve thinking, build accountability, and move work forward.
