Ask Your Team More Often What They Need from You

This simple question can go a long way. Even though it seems simple, it is a question not asked enough.

Ask your team more often what they need from you. This open-ended question gives you valuable insights into their needs, their strength, untapped potential, and how you can support them.

Many people are having a hard time asking for help or they may be so busy in their daily work, that they might not even be aware that they need more support from their manager. Additionally, not everyone finds it easy to start a conversation in which they express their needs or talk about challenging workplace situations.

👉 This question encourages your team to open up and as a leader, it is your job to care what you can provide to the team.

Do you think this question is a good starter for an honest conversation?
