Group Leadership Skills: Part 2

Group leadership involves asking good questions. Many leaders talk AT the group and discussions fall flat. In Part 2 (of 5) in this collection of videos on Effective Group Communication Skills, you'll learn how to ask good questions in groups to spark a lively discussion. Good questions are a key group leadership skill and one of many valuable group communication skills more generally.

All are key group leadership skills to create good communication in groups. 1. Ask Simple Questions. Avoid complex multi-part questions (e.g., "What is your opinion about X and how do you think that compares to Y and does Z make any sense or not? Also, add whatever you think." Instead, ask good, clean question one at a time (e.g., "What is your opinion about X?"). 2. Ask Open-Ended Questions. Start questions with How, What, or Why. These will usually lead to a more detailed discussion than Closed-Ended questions such as Yes/No, Either/Or, or Multiple Choice style questions. Typically, those questions in groups will stall a conversation. 3. Wait for 8 to 10 seconds after asking your question before worrying if anybody is going to respond. This can feel like an eternity but when groups participants are thinking about their responses, 8 to 10 seconds does not really feel that long. If nobody has spoken up after 8 to 10 seconds, you can reask the question and again give people several more seconds before jumping in. Group leadership skills are not just about what you have to say, you have to put yourself in team members' shoes and realize the quieter members will need this time to think. Additional Effective Group Communication Skills: To jump start group discussions, you may want to ask group participants to jot down their thoughts silently before beginning the discussion. Give them 20 seconds or so to write down their thoughts and then say, "Okay. Now, what did you write down?" You may also provide something concrete for participants to react to like a visual image, a quote, or some data. This provides a stimulus & response opportunity. Show some data on a slide, for example, and ask "What is your opinion about this data?" This gives everybody something concrete to react to rather than responding to the questions alone. In my experience, this detail will help you round out your group leadership skills measurably. Providing some stimulus almost always leads to better group discussions than not doing so. In sum, if you want to learn how to facilitate group discussions for more effective group communication, asking good questions is a key group leadership skill.
