January 31, 2023 (Curiosity Habit)

Many leaders have learned formally that they need to ask questions and be curious and humble. (Easier said than done.)

Habits form both intentionally and unintentionally. If our lives are a combination of our habits and you want to build a leader habit of curiosity, you need to start with where you are.

What is your "go to" question or statement of curiosity?

Examples

• Tell me more

• Say more

• I'd like to learn more about that.

• Why?

• What makes you believe that?

The list is lengthy ... mine change over time. If my five year old is any indicator, my current "go to" is "what does that look like for you?"
