    Episode 3 Bonus Episode What to Say When Someone Brings You a Problem

    Season One — Episode 3 Bonus: What to Say When Someone Brings You a Problem When an associate asks, “What should I do?” your first instinct may be to provide the answer. But that moment also offers an opportunity to help someone develop confidence, judgment, and the ability to handle the next challenge. In this bonus companion to Episode 3: Developing the People Around You, John Peleuses shares a practical coaching conversation that helps people think through options, recommend an approach, and take ownership of the next step. Through a realistic workplace example, explore how a few thoughtful questions can reveal what is holding someone back: “What have you tried?” “What options do you see?” “What do you recommend?” Learn how to listen before assuming you understand the problem, give someone time to think, and agree on a clear action and follow-up. The episode also considers when to offer guidance, remove a barrier, or intervene directly. Ownership requires support. Asking people to solve problems without the information, authority, or resources they need can leave them feeling abandoned. Effective coaching keeps you involved while making room for others to grow. Your practice this week: pause before offering an answer in one conversation. Help the person identify a next step, clarify the support you will provide, and return afterward to discuss what they learned. Lead with purpose. Give people room to think. Support them as they take the next step.
