Leadership will always come with pressure, but pressure is a privilege. As leaders, we don’t run from pressure; we press into it. Because it's in the pressing that oil is produced, and through pressure, that purpose is revealed.Mike Z. Personal Development Personal Success

  • STOP GIVING ANSWERS - Episode #004
    Mar 1 2026

    In this episode of The Leadership Press, we challenge a leadership instinct that feels productive, but may be limiting your team.

    The ceiling of your leadership is directly tied to the quality of your questions.

    Many of us were hired or promoted because we had answers. But constantly providing them can create dependency instead of development. Drawing from insights in "The Art of Asking Better Questions" by J.R. Briggs, Mike Z. explores why strong leaders are question-centered, not answer-driven.
