The Question Funnel and Critical Thinking Transfer as a Leader
The question funnel emphasizes the importance of using appropriate questions to transfer critical thinking responsibility to others. Open-ended questions like 'what,' 'why,' and 'how' at the top of the funnel require deeper analysis and critical thinking, transferring the most work. Skilled managers aim to stay at the top of the funnel to encourage critical thinking in their team. The quality of questions directly impacts the transfer of critical thinking, with 'why' and 'how' being particularly powerful in facilitating this transfer.
