Key Points
You’re not developing your people if you’re constantly giving them all the answers.
If you don’t have an awareness of something, you can’t change it.
Ask your reports, “What have you tried so far, and what do you think I’m going to tell you to do?”
Bonus Audio
Why being clever doesn’t always make you a better manager
