Activity Summary by leader/facilitator

and to get what we need:
· We need to help each other stop behaviors below the line
· We need to ask and give each feedback
· We need success stories in the midst of change and stress
· We need to recognition each other
9. Activity 3 Closing the gaps in 2015 (Focused Accountability,
Think Customer, and Action Learning, small and large group
activity)
_____________________________________________________
_____________
Purpose: To combine Focused Accountability and Action
Learning to plan and close gaps that need to be addressed in
2015.
This is a type of action learning?
“Action learning is a form of peer learning with a group of
colleagues who work on the real live challenges they face as
leaders. It is a rigorous and disciplined process that helps
people develop the skill of asking insightful questions to unlock
thinking.”
(Source: Ruth Cook, Director, Action Learning Associates)
This activity can be used with small or large groups. Asking
questions is a key part of the process.
Materials:
10. Video Clip:
Youtube: Leadership: Common Mistakes Made by Newly
Promoted Supervisors, Team Leaders and Managers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dde22DMuhFE ---- doesn’t
work
Time: this one depends on gap complexity and the number of
action learning. For example, a complex gap, might require 30
minutes or longer o “see it”. You need time to explain the
purpose (15 minutes); time to identify and prioritize gaps (45-
60 minutes); time for each step to be worked; time for optional
rotation and feedback. Time for debrief and any additional
planning that results from reaching step 3s and 4
Description/process:
Activity consideration – think about who do you need to invite
to be part of this solve it. You may want people from outside
your group or team who also touch the problem to be part of
this solve it.
· Explain the purpose of the activity and action learning. Show
YouTube to illustrate how asking questions is an important part
of working above the line, being accountable and solving
problems.
· First, Group/s Identify performance gaps impacting 2015. You
may use gaps you identified as part of your 2014 sustainability
11. plans.
· Second, prioritize gaps (sticky dots voting); you need to get to
a short list which shows the top 3-6 priorities facing the
team/group.
· Option 1 – small groups (6-8) work on the same gap. If you
choose this option, give the groups time to just work on one
step at a time. For example:
See it:20 minutes
Own it: 15 minutes
Solve it:30 minutes
Do it:15 minutes
Process:
· Groups all get time to work on one step at a time and then
everyone stops to report out.
· All groups rotate to see other teams’ flip charts (one step at a
time) and give feedback
·
After each step, have all the groups circulate and give some
feedback and reaction to all groups before moving to the next
step.
Note: Times will verify depending on the gap you work on.
After each step, have all the groups circulate and give some
feedback and reaction to all groups before moving to the next
step.
12. · Option 2 – small groups work on different top gaps; you can
still use the process of giving feedback between steps described
above.
· Debrief, groups report back and additional planning, next
steps, commitments are made.
Activity 4 . Fast and Furious Feedback Exchange (Exchange
Feedback, You Count, Open Up, Demonstrate Trust, individual
and team development
_____________________________________________________
__________
Purpose: To encourage the use of Focused Feedback while
practicing cultural beliefs of You count, Exchange Feedback,
Open Up, Demonstrate Trust. The atmosphere should be lively,
positive and people will need to know each other enough to give
positive and constructive feedback.
Materials:
· Chairs for everyone, lined up in two rows facing each other
· 4 panel card
· Cultural beliefs
· Bell or timer or music
13. Time: depends on the number of feedback round you want to
have. Suggest you have people move at least three times.
Description/Process
· Compare this to speed dating.
· Line up pairs of chairs facing each other
· Tell one row they are “focused feedback givers “and the other
row they are the “receivers”.
· At the signal:
· Receivers asks What feedback do you have for me around
name cultural belief.
· Giver responds with positive and constructive feedback using
the tool language (4 panel card)
· Receiver says “thank you for the feedback”
· 2 minutes and bell rings, receivers get up and move to the next
chair.
· Repeat, with receivers requesting more feedback
· Repeat 3 times or whatever makes sense for your group
· Switch, so “feedback givers” now become the receivers
requestors of feedback
Summary
· Not everyone is aware of their strengths
· Hard to see our blind pots or opportunities to be even more
effective
· Ask for volunteers to share either positive or constructive
14. feedback, surprises
· Recommended option: to push the envelope and have everyone
“Open Up” and “Demonstrate Trust”
· Have each person share one strength in terms of a cultural
belief and one area to improve based on constructive feedback.
· The team will be stronger if each person continued to
contribute their behavioral strengths and to improve their
behavior that detracts from cultural beliefs (Patrick Lencioni)
