1. OVERVIEW
The Leadership and Organization Development Research and Training Centre (LODRTC) are, dedicated to achieving leadership excellence. Leadership Excellence is an important element of the LODRTC People Management Strategy and therefore, all leaders have a responsibility to help align the Organization culture to the vision. We believe that people are central to value creation (what is important to us, which reflects our needs) and leaders create the culture (and are the principal drivers of performance in Local Leadership). The LODRTC is therefore committed to empowering our leaders and building internal leadership capability. This is achieved by creating an awareness of the important role leadership plays in the success of the organisation and by igniting a desire among leaders to lead. To ignite this desire and support from leaders on their leadership journey, the LODRTC ensures that they have the knowledge, skills and ability necessary to perform their role well. Furthermore, exemplary leadership does not go unnoticed but is rather reinforced by means of sufficient recognition.
Developing a Leadership Philosophy for the LODRTC is an exciting and innovative way to empower our leaders and connect with our core values as an organization. The culture of an organization or any group of individuals is a reflection of the values, beliefs and behaviours of leaders present and leaders past. Therefore, in the provision of the Leadership Philosophy, the core values are considered:
• Caring
• Competence
• Accountability
• Integrity
• Innovation
• Responsiveness

Writing a vision statement for your business is a daunting task. For one thing, it must define your company and, more importantly, its future. For another, you don't want it to be relegated to a forgotten poster hanging in the office lobby. A powerful vision statement stays with you, such as Disney's "to make people happy" or Instagram's "capture and share the world's moments." If you are intentional in your efforts and committed to doing the hard work, you can create a vision statement that encapsulates your organization's core ideals and provides a roadmap to where it wants to go.
What is a vision statement? Similar to a mission statement, a vision statement provides a concrete way for stakeholders, especially employees, to understand the meaning and purpose of your business. However, unlike a mission statement – which describes the who, what and why of your business – a vision statement describes the desired long-term results of your company's efforts. For example, an early Microsoft vision statement was "a computer on every desk and in every home." "A company vision statement reveals, at the highest levels, what an organization most hopes to be and achieve in the long term," said Katie Trauth Taylor, CEO of writing consultancy Untold Content. "It serves a somewhat lofty purpose – to harness all the company's foresight into one impactful statement." Why does this matter? Research shows that employees who find their company's vision meaningful have engagement levels of 68%, which is 18 points above average. More 2 engaged employees are often more productive, and they are more effective corporate ambassadors in the larger community. Given the impact that a vision statement can have on a company's long-term success and even its bottom line, it is worth taking the time to craft a statement that synthesizes your ambition and mobilizes your staff.

10. The essence of leadership
“Leadership is all about providing a vision and
direction for the organisation and the ability to
inspire people to go there with you.”
Nonkululeko Gobodo, Co-Founder
SizweNtsalubaGobodo
13. Instilling a vision
“A leader is a dealer in hope – somebody who
can look at the future and get other people
there with him or her.
You’ve got to be ready to do great things.
Then, what is your vision for the future?”
Sim Tshabalala, CEO: Standard Bank
14. Instilling a vision
1.1 OUTCOME STATEMENT
The collective leadership of the organisation sends a
strong, simple message of the chosen future for the
organisation which clearly conveys a purpose which
inspires stakeholders and enables the organisation
to find its way through uncertainties as they unfold in
the future, presenting new opportunities and threats.
Individual leaders live this message and make it real
for their teams, showing them the line of sight
between the vision and their work.
16. Instilling a vision
1.2 FUNDAMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
1.2.1 The vision is appropriate to the organisation’s South African context and will
contribute to the national vision as stated in the Constitution: “to achieve a better
quality of life for all citizens and to free the potential of each person.” the need for
job creation and alleviation of poverty and inequality is front of mind in deciding on
the organisation’s chosen future. The vision demonstrates the active citizenship of
the organisation.
1.2.2 The vision is enduring but flexible to changing circumstances. The vision is
active in bridging the present and the future.
1.2.3 The vision is ethical, realistic and practical and clearly shows how the
organisation and its leaders will contribute positively to sustainability of all six
capitals of the International Integrated Reporting Framework (financial,
manufactured, intellectual, human, social and natural).
1.2.4 The process of defining the vision is collaborative, including as many
stakeholder groupings as is appropriate so that a comprehensive range of risks is
considered and differing interests of stakeholders are taken into account and
balanced.
1.2.5 The vision is widely and regularly communicated and stakeholders are
helped to understand the context and application of the vision.
17. Instilling a vision
1.3 KEY QUESTIONS
1.3.1 What is the most effective collaboration process with stakeholders to
ensure positive relationships and engagement with the vision?
1.3.2 Have we checked that our organisation culture will support the vision
and if it is not aligned, what will we do about it?
1.3.3 What are the best ways to convey the message of the vision to
stakeholders?
1.3.4 How will we know that everyone in the organisation is aligned in
working towards the vision?
1.3.5 How will we keep the vision alive and inspiring for our people?
1.3.6 How will we ensure that our vision continues to be relevant to our
changing context?
19. Delivering results
“Leadership is about creating movement.
What is essential is to have a clear plan and
strategy and everyone knowing exactly what
is expected of them, with clear targets that are
cascaded down and used to measure people.
Different teams within the company are pulling
in the same direction.”
Shameel Joosub, CEO: Vodacom
22. Living the values
“Tell the truth, the whole truth and tell it
quickly. If we break trust we have no reason
for existence. We absolutely understand the
responsibility to lead. The tone is set at the
top.”
Bonang Mohale,
CEO: Business Leadership SA
25. Influencing people
“The primary role of leaders is to serve, not to
be served. Because if you serve your people,
it goes without saying that you get more from
them in return. The best leaders live a life of
service.”
William Mzimba, CEO: Accenture SA
28. Reflecting for improvement
“Fine leaders have the courage to make hard,
but necessary decisions; the courage to
abandon the past; the willingness to learn,
unlearn and relearn; as well as the courage to
be the change they want to see against all
odds. Part is acquired through life’s brutal
lessons in wisdom.”
Dave Macready, CEO: Old Mutual SA
29. Reflecting for improvement
5.1 OUTCOME STATEMENT
The collective leadership of the organisation has created a
culture where leaders individually and collectively take time
out to stand back and think about to what extent they have
lived up to the values and expectations of the organisation
and what has or has not been achieved.
Reflection has a clear purpose: to improve self-awareness
through new insights to assist with self-correction, continuous
improvement of results and development of self and others.
These insights are communicated openly and honestly with
stakeholders.
31. Reflecting for improvement
5.2 FUNDAMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
5.2.1 The organisation actively promotes a reflection culture through assigning
time and space for regular self-assessment activities of teams and individuals.
Individual reflection is not only about what has been achieved, but also aims to
improve self-mastery, which includes emotional intelligence.
5.2.2 Teams and individuals are trained in reflective techniques and in giving and
receiving honest and constructive feedback aimed at reducing personal blind
spots.
5.2.3 Leaders are encouraged to reflect with the support of a reflection
partner(s). Coaching and personal networks focused on learning are considered
as useful tools to support reflection.
5.2.4 Outcomes of reflection activities are valued, recognised and used to
improve leadership, processes, systems and practices in the organisation.
32. Reflecting for improvement
5.3 KEY QUESTIONS
5.3.1 How can we show the strategic benefit of reflection? How can we fit
time and space for reflection into our many organisational priorities? Are
we ready for this?
5.3.2 What is the most effective support we can give our leaders to
enable them to build a capability for honest and constructive reflection?
5.3.3 How can we recognise those leaders who most effectively practice
reflection?
5.3.4 How can we monitor that reflection is occurring and is delivering
tangible results for individuals and for the organisation?
5.3.5 What reflective practices have we implemented in our teams? Are
we expanding our repertoire of reflective practices? Are we looking at both
intended and unintended consequences? Are we critically reviewing our
personal and team decision-making processes to guard against
unconscious bias and cognitive biases?
33. Opportunities for assessment
practice
• Assessment should be a key practice in all
leadership development programmes
• Good opportunities for the development of
assessment centres using the leadership
standard as foundation
• Use assessment results for further
leadership development
• Assessment can enhance reflective practice
• Provide clear interventions for performance
improvement
35. Let us all lead
“If you consciously choose to be a positive
influence in the world, you will always find
opportunities to make a difference.”
Thuli Madonsela
Patron: Thuma Foundation
37. Conclusion
Let us position leadership as the top priority
for all organisations by applying the
leadership standard in our companies.
I thank you all for listening to the
#LeadershipStandard journey today.
We have to share today’s story with all our
connections and build our own leadership
capability going forward.
