In this episode, I want to share my thoughts on closed questions in coaching conversations. From my experience, open questions are often preferred, but closed questions have their place too. They can help bring clarity and focus during a discussion. It's about finding a balance between exploring ideas and confirming decisions.

Main Ideas:

● Closed questions in coaching

● Exploration and confirmation in conversations

● Jeff Bezos' hiring principles

● Closed-ended question for goal assessment

● Expanding and contracting conversations

● Challenging proposition of raising effectiveness

I find that good closed questions can prompt deeper reflection, like asking if I'd admire someone. I've noticed how closed questions can also be useful in team settings. By asking simple questions, I've seen teams improve and grow. Ultimately, understanding closed questions can lead to better conversations. It's important to explore different types of questions to enhance communication.
