Episode 8: Twenty Questions to Ask Other Leaders [Podcast]
Welcome to the new season of This Is Your Life. In this eighth episode, Michele Cushatt, my co-host, and I talk about a set of questions I use whenever I meet with leaders.
To grow as a leader, you need to be mentored, either formally or informally. One of the best ways to take advantage of the opportunities you get to meet with other leaders is to come prepared with a set of questions.
Listen to the Audio
Here are a few of the questions I keep ready for my own use. In this episode, Michele asks me seven.
Can you name a person who has had a tremendous impact on you as a leader? Maybe some one who has been a mentor to you? Why and how did this person impact your life?
Where do the great ideas come from in your organization?
As an organization gets larger there can be a tendency for the “institution” to dampen the “inspiration.” How do you keep this from happening?
Do you set aside specific times to cast vision to your employees and other leaders?
When faced with two equally-qualified candidates, how do you determine whom to hire?
What is one characteristic that you believe every leader should possess?
What is the one behavior or trait that you have seen derail more leaders’ careers?
You can get the full list of twenty below.
