Third Generation Leadership and inappropriate behaviour
| |
| By focusing on my performance and explaining difficulties I may be having in reaching my performance goals the emphasis moves away from how “the other” should change to how “the other” can help me achieve whatever it is I am supposed to achieve. I can use a Third Generation Leadership approach in my interaction with him or her or “them”. Now it is an easy step for me to set out what support I need or would like from “the other” in order for me to perform. |

Socratic Struggles
| |
| Using the Socratic Method to guide discussions is a well known tool. The method is frequently used in educational situations, but it can be a powerful tool at work if used well. The caveat is that it can be dangerous if used poorly.

The attached article has some of my thoughts on this subject and gives a list and examples of the six types of socratic questions.
1. Questions of Clarification.

Where is your inner six year old when you need them?
| |
| One of the biggest issues for sales people is knowing the right questions to ask customers.
In our experience many people complain of not knowing how to structure questions, or knowing what type to ask and when to ask them. In fact, we have found that many people are often caught wanting in the questioning department and suffer from what we call ‘amnesia questionitis’.
Why is this so? Why are so many people paralysed when it comes to the vital skill of questioning?
If you have been around any children aged from 3-6 years old you will know that they do not suffer from ‘amnesia questionitis’.
In fact they never stop asking questions. It has been shown that asking questions and seeking answers comes naturally to all of us and as children we excel in this area. They also excel at listening too. |
