This document discusses being an agile leader. It begins by listing some common myths leaders believe, such as thinking they need complete control or that their team just doesn't get it. It then discusses how culture creates our reality and the logical levels of change, from one's environment to one's beliefs. The document suggests beliefs for leaders to try on, such as that people always make the best choices or that one's outer world reflects their inner world. It concludes by providing the author's contact information and promoting an agile, high-performance roadmap.

5. Who is the Leader?

6. From Truths to Myths
 The more control I have, the better my results
 I’m at my best in times of complete certainty
 I’m not prepared to trust others who cannot prove to me that
they are trustworthy first
 Complex problems require a complex solution
 Often my team just doesn’t get it
 My team is fine; it’s the other teams who need help
 We don’t need outside perspective or help

7. “All this myth making reminds us just how
strongly wired we are to believe in things that
both make sense and feel right. They feel right
because of who told us, and when.
Culture creates reality.”
– Seth Godin

8. Logical Levels of Change
Environment: Where am I? When is this?
Behaviour: What do I do? What have I done?
Identity: Who am I?
Capability: How well do I do it? What do I know?
Beliefs & Values: Why do I do what I do? What do I
believe? What is important to me?

9. Beliefs to ‘try
on’
People work perfectly, and make the best choices
available at any given time
The meaning of communication is the response you get
Every behaviour has a positive intent in some context
There is no such thing as failure only feedback
Our outer world reflects our inner world

10. ACT
AS
IF

11. I have an
awesome team!
