Behind every problem, every lesson, every threshold of your leadership is a great question that needs to be answered. But, as John reminds us in this lesson, you only get answers to the questions you ask. In this episode, John Maxwell is going to share how he learned that he needed to start asking more questions early in his leadership, and he explains what leadership looks like with and without great questions.
After John’s lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede offer some application and discuss how asking questions helps us become better leaders, and they share the questions they’re asking themselves right now in their own growth journeys.
Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Value of Questions Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John’s teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Value and clicking “Download the Bonus Resource.”
