Ep 36: Why You Must Learn to be A Questionable Leader
It was Peter Drucker who said, “The leader of the past may have been the one who offered all the right answers, but the leader of the future will be the one who asks all the right questions.”On this episode, J.R. talks about one of his favorite topics: question-asking. He unpacks why leaders must lead with questionable influence; they must be the kinds of leaders who ask the best questions. On this episode we look at the four levels of questions and how leaders can utilize these four levels of questions in their own life and leadership.***If you enjoy this podcast, can I ask a 45 second favor?

Ep 31: The 6 Thinking Hats: To Lead Resiliently You Must Think Resiliently
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: J.R. Briggs is releasing a new book titled The Sacred Overlap on September 8 and he’s looking to have people like you join the book launch team. Want to join the team to help get the word out? We’d love to have you join (and there are perks to be involved, too). You can sign up HERE.…On this episode we explore Edward De Bono’s mental framework of what he calls the Six Thinking Hats. Each “hat” is a different mode or way to think about a problem or issue. To be resilient means we have to be able to think resiliently so we can lead resiliently. The six hats are:· The white hat is about facts.· The red hat is about feelings.· The yellow hat is where we think optimistically about what could be.· The black hat is where we think pessimistically of why something would not work.· The green hat is about ideas, alternatives and possibilities.· And the blue hat helps us think about our thinking, summarize what we’ve thought through and set goals for next steps.Edward de Bono’s The Six Thinking Hats ***If you enjoy this podcast, can we ask a 45 second favor of you?
