In the Career Coach Entrepreneur Academy, we focus on asking, not telling. You want to empower your clients and allow them to tap into their inner wisdom. Upon reflection, I’ve come to realize the amazing impact powerful questions can deliver.

Use powerful questions to:

Increase Autonomy

By asking great questions, you encourage your clients to design their lives, waking up self-discovery. You minimize blaming and excuses. Your clients are in command of the current moment and their future.

Expanded Self-Confidence

Powerful questions invite clients to discover more of what they are capable of and find new levels of ability within themselves. Inner strength is unleashed.

Challenge Assumptions

You offer tremendous value to your clients when you allow them to step beyond their current way of thinking. An authentic curious question shines light on previously held perspectives and can uncover limiting beliefs. As a coach, you don’t want to focus on your client’s problems but, rather, on how they perceive their problems.

Connect the Dots

Most of the time clients are in a state of confusion. They may not understand exactly what is driving their obstacles or problems. By asking powerful questions you can help clients uncover helpful (or unhelpful) life patterns, root causes, and creative solutions.

Most conversations are rushed or surface-level. If they go further than that, the interaction often devolves into problem-solving and unrequested advice.



Consider how your life, and the quality of life for others around you, would be transformed if you mastered the art of powerful questions.
