Can you do one thing differently?

Colleagues,

Yesterday I suggested that there were four essential practices for strategic leadership, but if I had the power to snap my fingers and have every leader change only one thing about their practice, it would be this:
 
Just do one 5-minute coaching session every day. That’s it. One. Five minutes. Three questions.
 
Every day, find someone in your organization and ask them:

• What’s going well?
• What has surprised you?
• Would you do anything differently?

 
Don’t give any feedback, just ask the questions, listen, smile, say think you, and walk away.
 
If I could snap my fingers, we would all do this for the next three weeks. Then we could talk about the next step.
 
…
 
SNAP!
 
Do good and be well,
 
Frederick
