Shiffy Srivastava was recently interviewed on a question many experienced leaders rarely stop to ask:
Can competence become a communication problem?
The conversation explored what happens when leaders become so good at solving problems that they stop being curious.
When the answer arrives before the question.
When listening becomes waiting to respond.
When expertise turns into certainty.
And when solving everything for the team slowly teaches the team to stop thinking.
One idea stayed at the centre of the conversation:
“What am I missing?”
Because leadership isn’t always about having the fastest answer.
Sometimes, it is about creating enough space for a better answer to emerge.
The conversation also explores Executive Presence, Client-Centricity, Curiosity and Practice Before Performance™—and why the behaviours that matter most under pressure need to be practised before the pressure arrives.
A thought-provoking conversation for leaders who don’t just want to know more, but want to lead differently when it matters.
