Key Points

Good leaders don’t just tell people what to do, they ask questions. Questions are often a better way of guiding people than giving orders; everyone will be better off if you manage to help others in your organization think things through to determine the best course of action, because they will be convinced of it in their own minds. Asking good questions is important to help understand your, and your organizations values and understand strategy and direction.

How to Win Friends and Influence People makes the same point, about asking questions rather than telling.
