Being an attempt to
   answer the question:


   How to be
   effective?
           Or …

“Some things I’ve noticed or
  learned along the way”
“Between stimulus and response
       there is a space.
  In that space is our power to
      choose our response.
In our response lies our growth
       and our freedom.”

       - Viktor E. Frankl

•   What result do I want?
•   Were is my attention focused?
•   What else could this mean?
•   What resources are available?
•   What’s stopping me?
•   What assumptions am I making?
•   What have I tried?
•   What actions can I take?
•   What action WILL I commit to?
•   Did that move me in the right direction?

Editor's Notes

  • #4 ““ Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” Viktor E. Frankl The world is changing Some would suggest that it’s changing at a faster pace than ever There are challenges, to be sure But there are also always choices Conference is a time to come together, and make a little space to reflect, to open ourselves up to new ideas and new ways of seeing. It’s a time to My job today is to help you hang out in that space. A little space for perspective. A little space for a shift in perspective. An opening to think creatively about the choices you have individually and collectively to focus your attention and your energy. Photo credit: Peter Bromberg [CLICK]
  • #5 I’d like to start by asking a question to create a little perspective; A little context WHY ARE WE HERE TODAY? A seemingly simple question, and one I try to continually ask and answer. Every day Take a moment, and think about the question. Why are we here today at the Maplewood Library? Why are YOU here? (RUN THROUGH ALL OF THE MAP SLIDES) [click]

  • #17 So I will ask again: Why are we here today? Because Life is short Our time together is precious I want to use my time here to make a difference I want to be awake and fully present Enrich my life and the lives of those around me. I choose to do that through library service.
  • #18 What is effectiveness
  • #19 Working definition of effectiveness Effectiveness is the ability to bring about the results you desire.
  • #20 Let’s start by talking about change.
  • #21 Here is a chart that illustrates the pace of change– specifically change brought about by disruptive technologies You can see that the amount of time between disruptive technologies and major shifts that they bring about has continually compacted. (quickly review) This means that great grandfather’s life was virtually indistinguishable from his father’s life. They both lived in a make shift house , with a dirt floor, a wood burning oven, and no plumbing. The first 13 years of my grandfather’s life were the same as his fathers In 1921 he left Russia for America and the next 80 years of his life saw: Automobiles, Indoor plumbing, Telephones, Heart surgery, Air travel, Satellites in orbit Space travel a moon landing, Television, Microwaves, Portable radios and tape players In other words, my grandfather saw more significant change in his life than his ancestors saw in the 500 years previous. To contrast, my 15 year old nephew has never known a world without: Internet, 156 HD channels, Invisible braces, DVDs, Cell phones, Text Messaging The pace of change– the introduction of “disruptive technologies” continue to happen at an exponential pace… Here are just a few key indicators: [click]
  • #22   2000 2012 Use Internet (adult) 46% 82% Broadband at home 5% 66% Own a cell phone 50% 88% Wireless Internet 0% 66% eBook Reader 0% 19% Tablet 0% 19%
  • #23 SHOW VIDEO ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funny right, but he captures something there, about how customers expectations shift very quickly when they are exposed to new technologies that make their life easier—or at least technologies that they value. Back when we started QandANJ.org in late 2001 and I started going around doing presentations, I would ask, “how many of you have been on the internet in the last 24 hours.” In the beginning I’d see 10-25% of hands go up. Each year, I’d see more and more hands go up. And now when I ask that question (ask it) . I inevitably see 100% How many of you have texted w/I the last 24 hours? Been on a social network? In a few years, how many hands will we see? The fact is, that technology doesn’t just expand what’s possible, it shifts our expectations and the expectations of our customers. Which means we have to be continually evaluating and shifting our role as librarians to respond to the shifting needs and expectation of those that we serve . But we’re getting a little bit ahead of ourselves… Let’s finish this discussion on the pace of change [click]
  • #24 Looking back at the chart: What we see is that for long periods of time, nothing happened. Then something happened, that had a major ramifications. That led to major changes. And then for another long period of time nothing happened. In Change Management, this was referred to as [CLICK] (Unfreeze Change,Re-freeze model)
  • #25 Up until recently, there was an accepted model of how change happens in society and organizations: The Unfreeze, Change, Refreeze model , This model suggests that: Our structures, our organizations , and therefore our experiences remain fairly stable (or frozen) for long periods of time Some fundamental change occurs, and for a period of time, things unfreeze. We all get used to the change, it’s ramifications play out, and we settle into the new normal. We refreeze. This model makes sense when we apply it historically, but over the last 100 years, the periods between each change have gotten smaller and smaller, to the point where it seems we don’t even get to the refreeze point. With regard to change we are now more in a state of continual fluidity . What does it feel like when we are in “unfreeze” mode? [click]
  • #26 Like this… Mad Men is all about that unfreezing Again, we have increasingly found ourselves in type of permanent unfreeze model Peter Vaill, a Professor of Mgmt at Antioch Univ . observed this phenomena and suggested a new model to help us understand change . [click]
  • #27 We are now in what Peter Vaill and other change mgmt experts call: Permanent whitewater. Whitewater suggests a number of things: It suggests a fast-pace ; It suggests that the situation changes by the second It suggests that we need to vigilant, aware and responsive moment by moment It also suggests that we can have a general sense of shape of the river—the direction of current — Maybe know where the really big rocks are . We can’t control the ride, but we can influence it . So, what can we do to be successful in this new reality? [CLICK]
  • #28 We can flatten our organizations. Why? Simple: Because flatter organizations – organizations with less hierarchy and bureaucracy– are better positioned to succeed in a climate of rapid change? What are the characteristics of a flattened org? Agile Flexible Adaptable Innovative Responsive [click]
  • #29 Valve is an extreme example of an organization with NO hierarchy No management No structure Anyone can Think of it as runway fashion. It’s far out there, but some of those far out ideas can be scaled back and used. [click]

  • #33 Lindsey is a great example of Emergent Leadership [click]
  • #37 POWER OF QUESTIONS What result do I want? Were is my attention focused? What else could this mean? What resources are available? What’s stopping me? What assumptions am I making? What have I tried? What actions can I take? What action WILL I commit to? Did that move me in the right direction?
  • #38 When we aren&apos;t getting what we want, we basically have three options available to us. We can change what we want, we can change our behavior, or we can change our perception (Jill and Steve Morris, Leadership Simple)
  • #40 The Body/mind is a system. Take care of both. They are intertwined When you are healthy, well-rested, and properly vitaminized, you will be more effective because you will be in a greater state of resourcefulness
  • #41 When we are healthy in body and mind, we are inevitably, happier, more creative, more energized, and hence more effective.
  • #43 Eat Well and often . I’m not going to preach, but if you’re not eating a healthy balance diet it’s like you’re coming up to bat with 1 strike on you. Research shows that breakfast is super important, and it is better to nibble on small snacks between meals (especially protein like nuts, cheese), then to go long periods without food.
  • #44 Exercise: Again, no preaching. There are reams of data that extol the benefits of exercise. The good news is you don’t need to be a gym rat to reap the benefits. Gretchen Reynolds, who has written on science, health and fitness for 20 years says, “The first 20 minutes of moving around provide most of the health benefits. Take the stairs a little more often, park far away from the entrance, take a walk. You will find yourself with more mental, as well as physical energy
  • #45 From: http://www.ted.com/talks/amy_cuddy_your_body_language_shapes_who_you_are.html Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy shows how “power posing” -- standing in a posture of confidence, even when we don’t feel confident -- can affect testosterone and cortisol levels in the brain, and might even have an impact on our chances for success. “ Amy Cuddy’s research on body language reveals that we can change other people’s perceptions — and even our own body chemistry — simply by changing body positions.”
  • #46 Sleep : There is so much data on the value of sleep the benefits of napping. For instance, a 2007 study led by researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Brigham and Women&apos;s Hospital found that “relational memory -- the ability to make logical &quot;big picture&quot; inferences from disparate pieces of information -- is dependent on taking a break from studies and learning, and even more important, getting a good night&apos;s sleep.”
  • #47 Take Breaks: Again, research shows that even a short 10 minute break away from our desks can rejuvenate us and lead to better engagement and creative problem-solving. A 2010 study at the University of California “found that when rats have a new experience, like exploring an unfamiliar area, their brains show new patterns of activity. But only when the rats take a break from their exploration do they process those patterns in a way that seems to create a persistent memory of the experience. The researchers suspect that the findings also apply to how humans learn.” Article: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/25/technology/25brain.html

  • #55 In a talk that Jesse James Garrett did at UX Week 2009 (a user experience conference), he suggests that our goal should be engagement and that customers can be engaged in four primary ways.

  • #56 What does that kind of engagement look like? Let’s See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lXh2n0aPyw So how were the people in this video being engaged? Perception (sound, visual) Action (jumping, walking) Cognition (choices, cause/effect) Emotion (fun!) Garrett suggests that once you start thinking in terms of user experience, you start to see user experience problems everywhere; you can’t NOT see these problems. [click]

  • #74 Granted it was early I hadn’t had coffee yet But my brain was seriously fritzing out trying to figure out what I was supposed to be doing.

Ineffectiveness: You know it when you see it… So that’s ineffectiveness. What does it mean to be effective?
