fundamentals
Leadership is everyone’s business
To be useful for the world we live in we need flexibility, speed in making choices and a human operating system that is not stuck in the old dogmas of management. A lot of companies will have an inherent design challenge if it is operating primarily as a triangle, cascading information and decisions through layers from top-down. Sometimes that works but too often it is not the solution and the company can become less competent than the people working there.
If you don’t understand people – you don’t understand business
All companies’ customers, partners, owners, shareholders and employees are human beings. Regardless of how good your business model is, how great the products and services you deliver are, how efficient your communication or sales are, one rules applies to all companies: If you do not understand people, you do not understand business, and the consequenses of implementing this fundamental truth is deliberate and focused work over a long period of time in any company.
A modern leader has no followers
As a leader it is not your job to gain followers. Actually, a true modern and progressive leader has no followers. It is not about following the leader as an employee, but instead to follow the flag of the company carried by the individual leader.
It is not about you
When we are too preoccupied with our own self-worth and status, we are less preoccupied with the common goal we all have in a company. Getting to that point takes an effort to help and inspire your leaders to carry out conscious leadership while setting up and environment acknowledging that exact behavior.
It takes talent to develop talent
To inspire people and align individual interest towards a common goal is a difficult leadership task. The leaders must be supported and trained in how to activate their own unique talent and potential, so that they can inspire and support the people they lead to do the same.
Being response-able is the ultimate superpower
Leaders have a difficult job and are faced with a range of tough situations. The ability to consciously choose one’s respond regardless of the situation is what takes a leader to a whole new level. To do that you most control the second between a stimuli and your respond, and that is the essence of our leadership training.
