Enter the Two-for-One Rule: For every input you offer in a meeting, follow it up with two questions. This approach shifts the focus to collaboration, encourages engagement, and ensures you learn from your team’s perspectives. Want better team member and customer experiences? Start by making your meetings a space for solutions—not monologues. Remember: Listening is leadership.
