👉 The Day I Stopped Chasing Updates (And My Team Took Ownership)...

A while back, I was leading a team on a critical project.
Deadlines were tight, the pressure was high… and yet every week it felt like I was dragging people uphill.
I’d assign tasks. Follow up. Remind.And still, things slipped through the cracks.
One day I caught myself thinking: “Why do I care about this more than they do?”
That’s when it hit me…
The harder I pushed, the more they leaned back.I was doing all the driving, and they were just along for the ride.
So I tried something different.Instead of telling them what to do, I started asking questions that made them choose ownership. Like:
“What part of this project do you feel most excited to own?”
“How would you like to move this forward?”
“What’s one improvement you’d suggest for how we’re handling this?”
The shift was instant.Instead of me chasing them, they started showing up with ideas, progress, and even celebrating wins together.
That’s when I realized: ownership isn’t forced, it’s invited.
And the best part? This isn’t some personality thing. It’s a skill.One you can learn and practice in just a few minutes a day.
