“Sometimes it's not enough to know what things mean, sometimes you have to know what things don't mean.”― Bob Dylan
Be careful with assumptions and figure out true objectives. We must look deeper into a meaning to truly understand it. Learn to ask the right questions in order to find the answers we are seeking. As a leader we must communicate effectively so that people understand what we need them to accomplish. There have been times where I’ve instructed people to handle a task and they came back unsuccessful. Sometimes we need to ask a person to explain to us what we need them to do to see if they truly understand.
