She presents a simple yet powerful practice called the "hot shot rule" to help you step into a leadership mindset, break free from inertia and take decisive action when it matters most.

The Art of Asking Smarter Questions
The Art of Asking Smarter Questions
With organizations of all sorts facing increased urgency and unpredictability, being able to ask smart questions has become key. But unlike lawyers, doctors, and psychologists, business professionals are not formally trained on what kinds of questions to ask when approaching a problem. They must learn as they go. In their research and consulting, the authors have seen that certain kinds of questions have gained resonance across the business world. In a three-year project they asked executives to brainstorm about the decisions they’ve faced and the kinds of inquiry they’ve pursued. In this article they share what they’ve learned and offer a practical framework for the five types of questions to ask during strategic decision-making: investigative, speculative, productive, interpretive, and subjective. By attending to each, leaders and teams can become more likely to cover all the areas that need to be explored, and they’ll surface information and options they might otherwise have missed.

Joining a Professional Group Where Everyone Already Knows Each Other
Joining a Professional Group Where Everyone Already Knows Each Other
Even for experienced professionals, it can feel intimidating to join a new professional group or association — especially if you discover that you’re practically the only new member and everyone else already seems to know each other. How can you break in and build relationships when no one else seems to feel the need? Here are four strategies to help you feel more comfortable, so you can stick around long enough to enjoy yourself and the benefits of membership: 1) Ask for networking help. In most cases, you’ll know at least one person in the group who can help you break in. 2) Commit to understanding the dynamics of the group. 3) Overindex during your first year. Because you’ll feel like a stranger at first (and you are) the antidote is to make yourself a “regular” as quickly as possible. 4) Double-check your assumptions.
