THEME “AUTHENTICITY MATTERS”
An authentic relationship is based on truth, respect, and mutual trust. In the workplace, these qualities
are essential for effective teamwork and healthy, professional relationships. Of course, building
authentic workplace relationships takes time and continual practice. If you're seeking to improve not
only your personal relationships with others but also your professional environment, incorporating
simple, common sense practices not only achieves your goals but also improves the lives of those
around you. The key to success? Treat others as you wish to be treated yourself.
Authenticity. What is it, who is doing it well and how do we make it work for us in the workplace?
Attempts at building workplace relationships that lack authenticity can often feel contrived. When
approached by people lacking in authenticity, we may likely feel used and simply a vehicle for the
other person to achieve their business objectives. This is networking and selling at its worst.
We must own our behavior. Every action we take with regards to relationships at the workplace is
intentional. On some level, we likely know what we are doing, but may not always consider the impact
of our actions or the repercussions on our co-workers. Do we come across as givers or takers?
Authentic or fake?
As we continue to adapt to today’s ever-changing and VUCA-driven business environment, it is critical
that we challenge the fear that somehow being authentic is a bad thing as some people would have
thought. It may be uncomfortable and create some opposition in the short term from individuals not
used to it. However, practicing candor, transparency, engaging in honest and open dialogue, and
always placing our values, principles, and ethics before advancing our career or pursuing short-term
financial gain will bring us more meaningful success in every aspect of our lives, not just at the
workplace.
To develop authentic relationships at the workplace, we need to invest time in getting to know our
colleagues. Learn about their personal interests, their families and share similar information with them.
Keeping our work and personal lives separate is inherently unhealthy, yet many of us have been
trained from an early age to leave the personal stuff out of workplace conversations.
For those of us with internal client facing roles, don’t we desire to build trust and develop long-term
client relationships? The solution is to be ourselves and not an artificial version of ourselves. Get them
to view us as our real self. The payoff? An improved organizational climate with sustained long-term
relationships and increased employee engagement.
How will we know how much we should share in the workplace? Are there any boundaries?
Authenticity, when guided by prudent judgment and discretion, is always a fundamentally positive
approach to successfully building trusting relationships with our colleagues. Sharing everything about
our lives may not always be appropriate based on the situation, but not sharing anything is also the
wrong answer. Strike a balance and use good judgment.
Building effective workplace relationships is an extremely important skill for any employee. The
strength of our relationship-building skills can affect our ability to negotiate effectively, deliver projects
and meet deadlines. This ultimately results in achieving our own performance objectives.

THE IRW MODEL OF BUILDING TRUST & AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS
Being able to establish TRUST is one of the most important aspects of the building authentic
relationship at the workplace. There are 3 dimensions that need to be considered (See Figure 1):
1) The apex of trust is ensuring that the INTENT of the relationship is unambiguous, free from
agenda and focused on the mutually satisfying outcomes of both parties and not that of only
your own. To achieve this, you must be able to set aside personal biases, beliefs, and attitudes
which may impact upon the co-worker. Define the boundaries of the relationship if necessary.
2) In developing the RELATIONSHIP, you must focus on the concerns of the other co-worker.
Focus on that person, rather than yourself. You must have enough self-confidence to listen
without prejudging and enough curiosity to inquire without supposing an answer. At times you
may need to subordinate your own ego. You must be motivated more by an internalized drive
to do the right thing than by your organization’s rewards or dynamics. Build the relationship
with your co-workers, based on mutual responsibility.
3) Having established a clear intent and commenced building a sound, transparent and authentic
relationship, next it is critical to being consistent and engaging with the WORDS chosen and
shared with your co-workers. You will need to demonstrate effective emotional & social
intelligence skills including active listening and empathy. You seek “first to understand”. You
will need to show candor and where necessary use creative insight and emotional courage to
say it as it is.
The correct alignment of INTENT, RELATIONSHIP, and WORD will establish and foster the growth
of TRUST and AUTHENTICITY at the workplace.

“DEVELOPING AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS”
Despite society’s emphasis on individuality, the reality is that critical workplace activities and
processes today are undertaken by teams. The success of organizations can be closely linked to how
well these teams of diverse individuals perform, and it is clear that some teams truly do excel.
As illustrated in Figure 2, the following key elements collectively known as “SCORE™” have been
found to characterize high-performing teams with trusted authentic relationships.
S: Cohesive Team Strategy
C: Clear Roles and Responsibilities
O: Open Communication & Trust
R: Rapid Response
E: Effective Leadership

5. CEE Key Note Session on “Authenticity Matters: Developing Authentic Relationships at the Workplace” Page 5
High-performing trust-based teams require a complementary set of characteristics known collectively
as “SCORE” – cohesive team strategy, clear roles and responsibilities, open communication, rapid
response, and effective leadership – as outlined in Table 1.
Table 1: “SCORE” Characteristics of Teams with Trust-based & Authentic Relationships
Characteristics Descriptions
S: Cohesive
Team Strategy
High-performing teams with a cohesive strategy will demonstrate why
they are in existence by articulating a strong, uniting purpose that is
common to all team members.
They will describe how they work together by defining team values and
ground rules (team charter). Finally, they will be clear about what they
do by defining key result areas.
C: Establishing
Clear Roles and
Responsibilities
Successful teams determine and clearly define individual member
roles and responsibilities.
High-performing teams with authentic relationship realistically examine
each individual’s responsibilities in terms of personality, interest, and
ability, resulting in an accurate understanding of each member’s
accountability and contribution to the team. This will minimize potential
workplace conflicts.
O: Developing
Open
Communication
& trust
Communication is the key component in facilitating or developing
authentic relationships at the workplace; its lack limits team success.
Effective communication includes demonstrating active listening as
well as flexing and adapting one’s style of communication to suit the
other team members. In addition, a cohesive culture is attained when
interpersonal interactions flow smoothly and individual differences are
also respected and leveraged to enhance overall team functioning and
minimize conflicts.
R: Rapid
Response to
Decision
Making
A high-performing team responds quickly, as necessary, to changes in
the environment, using creativity and “outside the box” thinking.
When faced with a problem, these teams leverage on each other
strength and brainstorm possible solutions and create innovative
resolutions leveraging on cognitive readiness and critical thinking
skills.
E: Exemplary
and Effective
Leadership
An effective team leader is able to develop authentic relationships with
the team member by adjusting his or her leadership style (situational
leadership) as necessary depending on the task at hand and the skill
level of each team member performing that task.
The team leader also plays a critical role in raising morale by providing
positive feedback and coaching team members (managerial
coaching skills) to improve performance.

APPENDIX II: CEE MASTER FACILITATOR’S & MASTER EXECUTIVE
COACH PROFILE – PROF SATTAR BAWANY (CONTINUED)
Brief on Selected Leadership Development Assignment:
1. The Client is a leading global pharmaceutical firm which has achieved rapid growth through
mergers and acquisitions (M&A). While M&A was great for the organization, it was challenging
for the employees with new roles and responsibilities, new reporting structures and new
expectations. Successfully incorporating merged and acquired employees meant getting
everyone to feel part of the company’s newly forged customer-centric culture. The "ART"
(Accelerating Role Transition) Program was implemented with the employee-driven process
for new and transitioning employees; the organization capitalized on the culture and built
respect through clear communication between employees and their managers. The
organization now includes it in the onboarding program for new hires at all levels and has made
it available to all employees changing jobs within the company. As a result, in contrast to many
mergers and acquisitions, which show signs of clashing cultures and slow pay-offs, the
employees of this firm score high on employee engagement and climate survey and the
leaders have quickly “settled in” to new responsibilities to deliver results – fast.
2. The Client is a high-performing, global informational technology firm where the senior
leadership team had set ambitious growth goals that rested on Corporate Values. Managers
at all levels across the globe are required to align their day-to-day decision making with the
values and inspire the workforce to do the same. Working with key leaders, the most effective
approach was established for achieving these results in the organization's culture. The solution
implemented includes a customized “Values-based Leadership” workshop which was
designed to create buy-in to a values-driven culture, help managers connect their personal
convictions with the organization’s values and prepare them to build their team’s commitment
through compelling communications. The second phase includes an executive coaching
program for managers and a values alignment process for individual contributors. As a result,
the senior executive team and all managers lead in communicating and modeling the
company’s values.
3. The Client is an Asia Pacific Regional Operations of a Global Financial Services Firm which
was expanding and adapting to increasingly competitive market conditions following the Global
Financial Crisis in 2008-2009. In this intensely hypercompetitive and fast-moving environment,
the firm understands that there is one factor that keeps the company ahead - the commitment,
creativity, and energy of its people. They wanted a radical new focus for the leaders at all
levels which would drive the results through engagement of the employee in a manner which
will capture the very spirit of the company and act as a motivational, inspiring force. Using
these principles and partnering with the firm, the “Leadership That Gets Results” (LTGR), a
high-performance leadership development program was designed and delivered. As a result,
the LTGR program has created new levels of co-operation and trust that has flourished across
the various business units of the company. Managers have become more energized and
motivated to take positive action and their new commitment has been cascaded through the
entire company. The managers were then ready and able to shape the future success of the
company and steered the firm towards achieving its Corporate objectives and sustainable
business results.

APPENDIX II: CEE MASTER FACILITATOR’S & MASTER EXECUTIVE
COACH PROFILE – PROF SATTAR BAWANY (CONTINUED)
Brief on Selected Executive Coaching Assignment:
1. The coachee is an international assignee in the Asia Pacific for the first time and has a lack of
international management and cross-cultural experience. It was decided by the sponsor that a
proven coaching process and the senior level international experience of the coach was a
valuable additional investment to complement internal processes. Over a six-month period,
the executive identified and began to develop a leadership style which would enable him to
move onto yet more senior levels, avoiding the derailment that so many high potentials
executive experience. A high potential and very marketable executive with cross-cultural
experience was subsequently promoted to a global leadership role.
2. The senior leaders of a high growth software organization were exceptionally bright but lacking
in leadership skills. A framework for executive coaching engagements was established for the
senior leadership team. Determining individual strengths and areas for improvement was the
first critical step. The participating executives (coachees) were assessed on two critical scales:
business competence and personal connection. With those results as a baseline, interviews
with each executive’s direct reports were conducted. That data, combined with the Coach’s
observations, formed the basis for very specific, tailored 6-month, one-on-one executive
coaching engagements. As a result of the team coaching engagement, the executive
management team developed a common language to discuss business strategy, goals, and
organizational culture issues.
3. The coachee is a successful business leader but is perceived by the Regional President &
CEO as not ready for the transition to the role as Country Head. There was a need for the
coachee to shift from being an individual contributor to becoming a team player and leader.
Her achievements would need to come through the involvement of others' ideas and opinions
and by learning to balance the issues of her boss as well as peers and subordinates. At the
end of the 6-months coaching engagement, positive change in the executive's leadership style
was perceived at all levels of the organization. Key sensitive strategic alliances were
successfully negotiated, resulting in considerable new and sustained relationship with
members of the country executive team, which is critical for the client towards her goal of
assuming the role of Country Head in the near future.
4. A highly successful marketing professional in a pharmaceutical firm develops better leadership
skills and understanding of teamwork. Within six months of the onset of the coaching
experience, the client's behavior and leadership style had grown substantially and
sustainably. Her retention record for key accounts and staff improved.
5. Project Management Director for a technology start-up company was struggling with gaining
consensus on project management goals and on-time delivery of products. Achieved
unanimous agreement over difficult issues within cross-functional areas. Executive became
more confident and engaged in handling challenging project assignments.
