13 Oct 2025

Description

Most leaders think their job is having all the answers. But what if the real power lies in asking the right questions?In this episode, host Jason Stonehouse sits down with JR Briggs, founder of Kairos Partnerships and author of The Art of Asking Better Questions, to explore why the best leaders might not be the ones with all the solutions. JR has spent over a decade coaching everyone from business owners to college presidents to Black Hawk helicopter operators, and he's discovered something that could flip your entire approach to leadership.JR reveals there are four levels of questions, and most of us are stuck at level one. He explains why humility, curiosity, and courage are essential to asking better questions, and how moving from "answer person" to "question asker" can transform your team's trust, creativity, and ownership. You'll discover why questions create connection in ways answers simply can't, and learn one practical thing you can start doing today to become a better question asker.Jason and JR also flip the script mid-episode, with JR coaching Jason live on the podcast, demonstrating exactly how powerful questions unlock deeper insights and genuine connection.If you've ever wondered why your team isn't being more honest with you or how you could lead with more influence, this conversation is for you.Links:JR's website: jrbriggs.comKairos Partnerships: kairospartnerships.orgJason's coaching resources: jasonstonehouse.comFree growth resource: totalpackageplaybook.comLove this episode?
