In this episode, I’m talking about one of the trickiest balances in leadership - knowing when to step in and when to step back. Inspired by a moment with my son’s sports coach, I reflect on how leaders can help others learn to make decisions without taking over. We explore how coaching through questions, rather than instructions, can create real ownership, accountability, and growth within a team.I share practical examples and coaching prompts you can use right away to shift from “telling” to “asking,” build trust, and empower your people to take confident action - even when mistakes happen. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering whether to guide, protect, or let go, this episode will help you find that sweet spot between leadership and learning.  Here are the highlights:When to let others take responsibility (02:30)The parenting–leadership connection (04:12)How to coach through questions, not answers (08:45)Handling mistakes without blame (10:45)Why curiosity creates growth (12:20)Encouraging accountability through empathy (13:40)Connect with Emma:LinkedInWebsiteThis Podcast is proudly produced by Wavemakers Audio
