Supportive Conversation sounds like a gem to me. Reading this made me realize how much of my conversations have been on autopilot just this morning alone, and how much more opportunities there are to make more supportive conversations throughout the rest of my day. Including this one, I hope!

Awesome article Rik! Back when I managed teams, I'd inevitably get asked "what's your management style" from a new direct report or team I'd be taking over. I always struggled to provide a cogent response. "Thinking Partner" nails it right on the head. While I wasn't perfect at it by any stretch, I always aimed to help pull the wisdom out of those I worked with. I wish I had this article to share back then.
