"Frank's skill in asking the right questions is un-mistakable, and is at the core of his leadership philosophy.

The power of these questions cannot be underestimated, especially if you want to lead and not manage."

1. Start Listening

Virtually every great manager we’ve dealt with during our lives is a terrific listener. This is so basic an idea that it’s hard to believe there are people who don’t place a high value on good listening skills.

Can’t you point to countless problems—in your live and in the lives of others—that developed because someone didn’t listen?

For that matter, think of how many problems listening would solve.
“I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.”
Ernest Hemingway
