@yasarahmad_: The Reverse Question: How to stay in control when someone puts you on the spot. Here’s how leaders handle a question they can’t answer. They don’t panic. They reverse it. It’s called The Reverse Question — and top executives use it constantly. Because it flips the power dynamic instantly. It works on two principles: Reframing — shifting the focus from defense to dialogue. Reciprocity — people answer what they ask, so you make them clarify first. I’m Yasar, VP of HR with 15 years in leadership — and I teach you how to win at work. Next time someone puts you on the spot, try this: “Good question. Before I answer — what’s most important for you to understand about this?” Or: “That’s a fair question. Before I dive in, what outcome are you hoping to get clarity on?” They’ll reveal what they really want. You buy time to think. And now, you’re leading the conversation. That’s The Reverse Question — calm, confident, and completely in control. #LeadershipCommunication #ExecutivePresence #CareerAdvice
