What you tell a person is less important than what you enable the person to tell you.

by Coach Takeshi | posted in: #reflective-leadership #emotional-intelligence, Mental Model Dōjō |

What you tell a person is less important than what you enable the person to tell you.

In coaching, we listen. Like, really listen. To really really listen, we ask questions. Lots of questions.

A coaching style of communication is effective not just for professional coaches. It’s a skill set that we can all benefit.
