“This is where the ball is. This is where I’m going to spend some time.”
- Luc Beaudry
Asking the right questions is an art form. Sometimes these questions can create discomfort so it’s important to be intentional about how you create psychological safety in your approach to allow for the right questions to surface. Good question-asking ensures that you are gathering perspectives and getting the whole picture, not only part. Listen to this episode for some examples of how to do this effectively.
My guest is Luc Beaudry who is a Leadership Development Consultant at Canadian Blood Services. Luc is a senior talent practitioner with great depth of experience in leading teams and creating compelling content.
