You Must Dig Deeper

There is One Question that I can ask you, as a Leader, to see how much you Truly Understand anything.

How?

For instance, you say you need to Improve your Team.

Awesome — that’s True for you and EVERY other Leader in the Multiverse.

How?

How are you going to Improve your Team?

You might tell me something about certain Skills they need — that’s a common one I hear.

Fantastic.

How are you going to get them those skills?

Most Leaders I find either don’t answer the “How” question at all, or they don’t answer it enough times to have a solid plan.

What is an Ideal number of times to answer the Question of How?

It will vary depending on the Complexity of different things, the number of different Potential Solutions you have, and if there are any Barriers, Challenges, or Obstacles that come up.

However, I find that a minimum of 7 times in a row is a good baseline to determine how much you Understand.

Really, you need to be able to answer the Question of “How” up until you have an Action you can Immediately Take that Directly…
