Why Great Leaders Must Unlearn to Succeed in Today’s Exponential WorldKaiNexus
March 6 from 1:00 - 2:00 ET
Presented by Barry O'Reilly
In this session, you will:
Learn to use a systematic approach to adapting your behaviors and mindset in order to meet the demands of an exponential rate of innovation.
Discover how to let go, reframe, and rethink past successes in order to succeed in the future.
Identify and address the personal obstacles that you need to unlearn.
Challenge your thinking, get outside your comfort zone, and achieve results beyond what you thought was possible.
Effective leadership comes with a large learning curve. In today’s rapidly evolving business climate, this is truer than ever for seasoned leaders and entrepreneurs alike.
Many leaders rely too heavily on past achievements, practices, and ways of thinking to drive positive business results today, but they often need to unlearn those behaviors before they can take a step forward.
Join executive coach Barry O’Reilly as he breaks down a transformative framework that shows leaders how to rethink their strategies, retool their capabilities, and revitalize their businesses for stronger, longer-lasting success.
"Unlearn: Let Go of Past Success to Achieve Extraordinary Results" shows leaders and entrepreneurs how to deliberately move away from once-useful mindsets and outdated behaviors that were effective in the past and embrace new behaviors that are effective in a world ripe with emerging technologies and accelerated change.

Using Lean to Create High-Velocity Teams (Until 2:00pm)
Great products come from great teams, yet very few companies try their hand at at team design. Too often we rip job descriptions off the web, throw people together without preamble, then simmer in passive-aggressive discontent until someone eventually fires the person we’ve all been rolling our eyes at. Or worse, we avoid firing him until everyone good quits. Can Lean show us a better way to get things done?
Christina Wodtke teaches Lean Entrepreneurship at the university level and coaches executives how to create high-performing organizations. From this intersection she has helped a new kind of team emerge: the Lean Team.
What is the Lean Team?
-Hypothesizes about how we do our work, not just what work we’ll do.
-Holds no ao assumptions about the best way to get things done.
-Is constantly iterating.
-Commits to peer-to-peer accountability and coaching.
-Embraces diversity in experience and culture.
-Engages in formal reflection to increase learning velocity.
The best teams don’t just use Lean Startup methods to create breakthrough products. They use the learning cycle to reduce interpersonal conflict, communicate effectively, and get more done. In this breakout session, we’ll look at the best practices that high velocity, high-learning teams use, and how you can bring them back to your company.

Research is the systematic and objective analysis and recording of controlled observations that may lead to the development of generalizations, principles, or theories, resulting in prediction and possible control of events .
This was a presentation that was carried out in our research method class by our group. It will be useful for PHD and master students quantitative and qualitative method. It consist sample definition, purpose of sampling, stages in the selection of a sample, types of sampling in quantitative researches, types of sampling in qualitative researches, and ethical Considerations in Data Collection.
This is a 2nd presentation I developed to help leaders improve collaboration and teamwork skills within their teams. Source material is noted on the title page.
I delivered this presentation when I was studying Software Engineering at UTS(Autumn 2010). I was the Project Manager of a team of 20 Software Engineering students and we were developing a Robotic Waste Treament System.
If you want to meld your group into a true team, these practical actions will help any leader be intentional about doing so. It starts with crafting and casting vision that teamwork is the most effective way to succeed as an organization. 10 other tips, too!
Team Membership - Focus on your style to find successMike Cardus
Workshop based upon Team Dimensions Profile.
Team membership starts with "I". The more you know about yourself this "I" the more effective you can be as a team member. Once you explore and reflect upon your "I" you know what motivates you and can continue to feel autonomous and respected while producing amazing work.
The goal is to explore behaviors that you exhibit and facilitate you to be aware (mindful) of how you are acting in that moment. Therefore making you a better team member. Basically the goal is all about YOU.
“making myself an effective team member, one who is dedicated to being a team member as opposed to making myself desirable for membership within the team.”

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective SchoolsChris Moore
This presentation was given at the EAQUALS conference in Budapest in April 2014.
Abstract: Stephen Covey’s seminal leadership and management book, ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’, has been consistently voted in the Top 10 most influential business books of all time, and has been widely applied in Fortune 500 companies, governments, and educational institutions around the world.
This workshop looks at how applying what Covey calls ‘7 timeless principles’ to a school can maximise its organisational integrity and effectiveness. We will look at what these principles are, the distinctions between production and production capability, engaging proactively with the space between stimulus and response, and how schools can build a culture which engages with its stakeholders and creatively innovates for the future.

Editor's Notes
Facilitator – We want to get everybody in the room and get them started on this activity as soon as possible. We get the class started off right by staring with a fast paced activity. Direct the team members to their assigned seat. Observe team during the activity. Take note of conflict & teamwork. Take notes re: who is and isn’t listened to during the activity.
Facilitator – Team members report out directly to the big group. If no one participates, refer to your notes and ask some leading questions, ie “Judy—I noticed that you wanted the corner pieces. Did you get them? Did your teammates listen to you?” Should take 3-5 Team Member comments. This report out shouldn’t take more than 3-5 minutes.
Facilitator introduces co-facilitators and reviews ground rules.
Facilitator – We don’t want to spend too long on this one. We just want to capture some of their initial ideas.
Facilitator – Read or have audience member read it
Facilitator – Read it.
Facilitator – Have audience members volunteer to read each bullet point
Facilitator – Tables have proficiency level printouts. Listen in to the groups. Prod them along if they get stuck. Do get the teams writing on their flip chart. Watch the time. After 8 minutes, suggest that the group pick a speaker and determine what examples they will share
Facilitator – Throw candy to team members that give good responses
Facilitator – If the group did not identify these responses, review them now
Facilitator – Have audience members volunteer to read each bullet point
Facilitator – Have audience members volunteer to read each bullet point Ask “Who was St. Francis of Assissi?” Saint Francis of Assisi (1181/1182 – October 3, 1226) [2] was a Catholic deacon and the founder of the Franciscans . He is known as the patron saint of animals , the environment and one of the two patrons of Italy (with Catherine of Siena ), and it is customary for Catholic churches to hold ceremonies blessing animals on his feast day of 4 October. He was the first person to set up a nativity scene with live animals to celebrate Christmas. Ask “Why was Einstein famous?” Theory of Relativity, E=MC 2 , and “thought experiments” Who is John Maxwell? Mega Church pastor, best selling author, including author of “Teamwork 101.” Give the teamwork book to an audience member.
Facilitator – Have audience members volunteer to read each bullet point Ask “Who is Seneca?” Reward anyone that knows. Seneca -- At an advanced age, at the request of his sons, he prepared, it is said from memory, a collection of various school themes and their treatment by Greek and Roman orators. These he arranged in ten books of Controversiae (imaginary legal cases) in which seventy-four themes were discussed. He also wrote a history of Rome. Ask “Who is John Bunyan?” reward anyone that knows. John Bunyan (28 November 1628 – 31 August 1688) was an English Christian writer and preacher, famous for writing The Pilgrim’s Progress (an allegory that describes a Christian’s journey of faith.)
Facilitator- Add your thoughts on how competition can improve results Or, if taken to an extreme, can hurt results
Facilitator- Ask “Where is an unusual place you got an idea?” Ask “Did you ever have an idea, work really hard on it, come to a meeting…and then everybody else started changing it and adding there input?” Did that make you feel good/bad? How should it make you feel?” Do we ask our cart attendants for ideas? Do we ask our guests for ideas? Our friends? Our families?
Facilitator- Define each term. They are self explanatory based on the titles. One note—the workplace whiner whines about serious problems and trivial ones. So you never know whether their Mom died or their alarm went off late. Everything is a disaster for them.
Facilitator- Read through the slide. Ask the audience if they’ve ever dealt with a co-worker/friend or team member like this. Have they ever used any of these techniques?

Facilitators- Pass out the cards. Ensure the teams use nothing but balloons and tape to make their towers.
Facilitator- Listen in to group discussion. Ask leading questions, if needed, to get the conversation going.
Facilitator- Until now – we’ve been talking about how you can improve at collaboration. …but you already lead teams now How well do your teams collaborate? How can you improve the collaboration in your own teams?
Facilitator- This slide is a 1 page “aside” that is really about talent management. At Target, we call it “Right Person, Right Place, Right Time.” The point is, if you don’t have the right, collaborative person on the team—it will have a huge detrimental impact to overall collaboration on the team.
