What questions are on your mind? That’s the question I posed to you last month when I asked you to “Ask me anything!”

I received many great questions and, as promised, I’ve picked five to dive into during this episode. 

Asking the right questions is a fundamental part of leading transformational change. It’s not just about finding answers—it’s about understanding why we ask our questions and how we react when others ask us.

It’s just as important to know the reasons behind why we’re asking. What’s the intention behind the question? What are we hoping to learn or uncover? 

This is where true understanding happens—both for the person asking and the one being asked.

So the next time someone asks you a question, take a moment to ask a follow-up question. You both might be surprised with the answer!

Now, it’s time to dive into your questions!

YOU’LL LEARN:

• How to shift from a “command and control” leadership style to a culture focused on continuous improvement
• Common obstacles organizations face when implementing transformational change and how to overcome them
• How you can effectively balance the need for short-term results with the pursuit of long-term strategic goals while developing people
• Insights on transitioning from a lean leader in an organization to starting a consultancy business
• How continuous improvement teams can amplify their impact and link leadership coaching to driving real business outcomes
