Please share your feedback! I will mean a huge deal. www.ratethispodcast.com/intellicoach Sometimes it is better to look from a different angle. In this episode, I will offer some surefire ways how to ask bad question (and YES, there are bad question, imho). There are so many ways how we can do that...we try to stick to less than a dozen here, so you are sure you can apply them all..if you wish. 1. Make sure you ask mostly closed questions...those type that can be answered ideally with just one syllable. 2. It is also brilliant to always respond to a problem shared by someone with a solution disguised as a question right away: Why haven't you tried this? Could you not do this? Have you considered that? 3. Take all the time in the world to find that one powerful, magical question that unlocks the universe for the client. Your Coachees are patient. 4. Always make sure to ask more than one question directly in a row, when you get the chance. The more the merrier. Your Coachees are guaranteed to find the best one. More choice is better, no? 5. The longer your questions, the better, too! They can simply pick what works best for them in your third or fourth sub-clause. 6. Make sure you weave in as much of your own interpretation/spin and judgement into your question as you can. After all, you know you are right, so why hold back? 7. Ask a lot of rhetorical questions, maybe even with a bit of an accusing tone. They are a laser sharp way to to add judgement and accusation artfully into a question. And who could argue with a simple question, right? (see what I have done here? twice?) 8. Make sure you interrupt when they pause to think, because they are likely to go in the wrong way anyway! Throw them any question, best a solution question (see point 2), to break that pause as quickly as you can! 9. Make sure you ask a lot of WHY questions. They are like a miracle sauce...combining our search for reasons with a good dose of judgement! Enjoy this very serious episode!
