If someone is engaged in conversation with you, chances are good that the most impactful statement you can make is advising them on how they can level up.
If they’re talking with you – and this might sound bad – they want something out of it. Sure, address the concern or question or topic they’ve brought up, but bolt a leveling up suggestion on with it.
“I appreciate the recommendation, and next time it would be stronger if you shared two alternatives you vetted against it” is a load more helpful than simply, “I appreciate the recommendation.”
Great leaders and mentors treat every engagement as a chance to lead and mentor; the opportunity is always there if you lean in for it.
