When your team asks questions like": “What should I do?”, “How do I fix this?”, “What’s the right answer?”, you’ll know exactly what to ask next.
When you become a manager, you think your job is to have answers.
It isn’t.
Your job is to help other people think clearly and act confidently.
But in the moment — when someone looks at you for direction — it’s easy to default to advice.
That creates dependency.
The best leaders do something different.
They coach in the moment.
Most managers solve problems.
Great leaders build people who solve problems.
That shift doesn’t require long coaching sessions.
It requires better questions.
That’s what this framework gives you.
The coaching moments prompt: learn how to recognise when to coach on-the-go.
A quick reference coaching questions framework for fast, solution-focused coaching.
The exact coaching questions you can use today.
