How to Develop Critical Thinking

How do you help your team (and even your patients) become better critical thinkers and able to make better decisions on their own. The temptation when people come to us asking for help is simply to give them advice - it makes us feel good about our knowledge and intelligence and keeps us firmly ensconced in our position of authority. The problem is that the line always seems to grow longer every day.

Here are eight great questions to ask the people who look to you for leadership to make them a better leader themselves.

Taken from a presentation by David Dye who has written the book "The Seven Things Your Team Needs to Hear You Say."

The Global Leadership Summit

The Global Leadership Summit

I had the stunning opportunity to attend the Global Leadership Summit with IMA staffers Susie Pouliot and Theresa Cirelli. This is my first chance to be with 250,000 other GLOBAL leaders, piped in via satellite, from the Willow Creek Association campus in Illinois. While ostensibly a church and faith-based leadership conference, this is a world class training with leaders speaking like Jim Collins ("Good to Great", "Built to Last,"), Horst Schulz (Founding President The Ritz-Carlton Group), Ed Catmull (co-founder, Pixar Animation), and Bill Hybels, founder of Willow Creek Church in Chicago.

I highly recommend the summit which for the price of less than $100 for 2 full days is the highest-value leadership training of any kind I've received. Take a look at next year if you're interested.

Watch my challenge to you about being a learning rather than an expert.
