This episode illuminates the nuances of leadership communication, emphasizing active listening as a cornerstone for problem-solving and understanding your team's unique needs. We dissect the importance of invitational prompts, encouraging team members to share their expectations and experiences, which provides invaluable insights into their vision of effective leadership.
