Stop giving advice

Over the weekend, I revisited a book that changed my thinking.

“The Advice Trap” by Michael Bungay Stainer is one that I often recommend to others as they navigate communication and leadership.

It is easy to rush to provide solutions.

Or share your wisdom or expertise.

Yet, the real challenge lies in embracing the discomfort of uncertainty.

And truly listen.

As Bungay Stainer says “Your job is to stop seeking the solutions and start finding the challenges.”

Let curiosity help you become a better leader.
