Bbl Breakthrough Leadership Mod 5 17 July2008
The Lost Leadership Skill – Listening!
One of the most powerful and overlooked tools in today’s leadership toolbox is the simple act of deeply listening to another person. We are not talking about the kind of listening that happens in ordinary conversations, where people are eager to raise objections, point out obstacles to any new idea, or recall how a similar idea previously failed. This module explores generous listening - listening with curiosity, with a spirit of inquiry rather than the over-used advocacy approach where ideas are debated, fresh perspectives are silenced, and enthusiasm quickly evaporates. Generous listening creates powerful “thinking partnerships” and a “thinking environment” where people are free to be far more creative and productive. Based on Nancy Kline’s book, “Time to Think”, the Thinking Environment model has been proven in companies, government agencies, universities, schools, political groups and voluntary organizations. The language of leadership begins with the four magic words “Interesting! Tell me more . . . “. Although we spend almost half of our waking hours listening, most people have never received any guidance on how to listen effectively. Leaders who master this straightforward approach to listening powerfully can truly transform an organization and unleash the group genius of their people.
Goal Setting & Development Planning - Influence
It’s time to dig deep and get personal. What results do you really want? What’s your plan for getting them? This will
provide you with a unique opportunity to thoroughly vet your plans with the other bright and talented individuals in
the room. You’ll leave with a great start on your developmental plan and goals as well as clear next steps for action.

Additionally, successful leaders can solve problems unconventionally, communicate well, and empower their team members to achieve goals. The document also examines gender differences in leadership styles between masculine, feminine, and androgynous approaches.

WOC 2016: Daring to be Different; Breaking the Glass Ceiling and Riding the G...Career Communications Group
Dr. Maya Angelou stated, “Achievement brings its own anticlimax.” Nowhere is this truer than in the lives of women of color, as they seek accomplishment and prominence in the face of adversity. In addition to the glass ceiling, which already is stopping women from climbing higher in success in the workplace, a parallel phenomenon called the "glass escalator" is also occurring. This can be defined as how more men are joining fields that were previously occupied mainly by women and within these job fields, the men are riding right past women and going straight to the top, similarly to if they were on an escalator and a woman was taking stairs.
At the end of this seminar participants will be able to:

Understanding Soft Risk in Volunteer Engagement
Volunteer engagement often focuses on hard risks: accidents, past bad behavior, or access to confidential information. While these risks are real we often overlook the soft risks that also jeopardize the success and sustainability of volunteer engagement. This session will look at the soft risks associated with engaging volunteers including: “word of mouth” reputation, interactions on social media, lack of training being responsible for inaccurate information being given out, and how failing to screen for characteristics or “fit” can open volunteers, the volunteer engagement program, and the organization up to risk. Attendees will learn to identify these soft risks in their own program through examples, modeled interactions, & learnings from the HR and for-profit sectors, and develop a plan to mitigate the effects on their organization. Attendees will leave with a Soft Risk worksheet as well as action plan for addressing soft risk in recruiting, screening and training volunteers.

Increasing Design Influence by adapting your voice to your organization's dec...
As designers, we like to think of ourselves as makers. When we’re working on large, wicked problems, the challenge is that “making” is no longer a solo endeavor; it’s something that requires a lot of people and functionality to make happen. This can leave designers feeling like we’ve had to compromise our standards to appease business or development stakeholders. It also inadvertently creates an us-versus-them mentality that actually makes it less likely that we’ll be successful in moving forward our vision of what’s possible.
So what does this mean for us? Simply understanding what your product’s users are dealing with isn’t enough. To make truly great products, you need to understand how people, organizations, systems and content play together. In this presentation, we’ll focus on some ways to help understand the organizational context you’re working within, and to adjust your approach to increase your success within those organizations.

You most commonly adopt an authoritarian or autocratic leadership style. You rarely consult your team members and, instead, tend to tell them what you want, when you want it, and how you want it done.
This style works well in a crisis, when a task must be completed quickly. However, you'll likely demoralize, demotivate and aggravate people if you use it all the time. This can translate into high absenteeism and turnover rates. You'll also miss out on a wealth of ideas, thereby stifling innovation and creativity. Read more below.
21-27
You lean toward a democratic or participative style of leadership. You tend to set the parameters for the work and have the final say on decisions, but you actively involve your team members in the process.
This style can build trust between you and your people, as they'll likely feel engaged and valued. But it's not great in a high-pressure situation that requires a fast turnaround, as it will slow you down. And, if you dislike disagreement or conflict, you might struggle with how people respond to consultation. Read more below.
28-36
Your default leadership style is probably delegating or "laissez faire." You give your team members free rein in how they work toward their goals.
This is an ideal approach when your people are highly skilled and motivated, and when you're working with contractors and freelancers who you trust. But if a team member is inexperienced or untrustworthy, or if you lose sight of what's going on, this approach can backfire catastrophically. Read more below.
Do you believe that you can adapt your style? Harvard University professor Ron Heifetz and leadership experts David Rooke and William Torbert say that you can. So let's look in more depth at Lewin's leadership styles, their strengths and risks, and how you might become more skillful in using them.
Authoritarian, Autocratic Leadership
This approach is helpful when your team needs to follow a process "to the letter," to manage a significant risk. It's also effective when you need to be hands-on with people who miss deadlines, in departments where conflict is an issue, or in teams that rely on quick decisions being made.
But you need to be aware that relying on control and punishment to maintain standards will likely drive people away. Similarly, if you always demand that your team works at top speed, you can end up exhausting everyone.
Instead, you can show respect for team members by providing the rationale for your decisions. And they will more likely comply with your expectations if you take the trouble to explain Why the Rules Are There .
You can improve your ability to "lead from the front" by Planning for a Crisis , Thinking on Your Feet , and making good decisions under pressure . But be sure to balance these skills with an awareness of their potential negative impact on creativity, ideas gathering, motivation, and trust within the team.
Being too autocratic can also mean that you'll fi.
