Leading people through challenges and driving growth requires you to do more than get the work done. So let me share with you a powerful leadership strategy that I have used with my clients for years. This one is called the "missing conversation" question. The powerful leadership strategy was born from talking with CEOs about their team taking ownership of their work.
