#085: Michael Answers Your Questions

Published: April 12, 2022, 9:06 a.m.

Leaders are problem solvers, and that means coming up with the right answers. The problem is that you may have no one to go to with our own inquiries. It\u2019s tough to be the one everybody\u2019s looking to for solutions when you\u2019ve got more questions than answers! The longer we\u2019re in leadership, the more we\u2019re convinced that asking the right questions is far more important than always having an answer in your hip pocket.

That\u2019s why we take time out once in awhile to let you ask the questions that are on your mind. That\u2019s what this episode is about. Think of it as a whiteboard session. We\u2019ll tackle some of your most persistent questions and offer the benefit of our experience.
