Seek the real truth from each staff member and candidate: who are you? Where have you been? How are you wired? What’s your highest, best use?

Beth Herman, Beth Herman, EBH Consulting LLC

When work teams get stuck, I ask these pointed questions: What is most important for us to do now and why? What is the best, easiest, most joyful way to achieve this goal? What’s in our way? Is our plan explicit, realistic, and understood?

Beth Herman, Beth Herman, EBH Consulting LLC

Trying times require leaders to tune into the whole human system: cognitive, emotional, physical, and yes, spiritual. Great leaders notice discomfort and stop to ask questions.
