Facilitative Leadership Approach �The Skilled Facilitator (2002), Roger Schwarz �The Skilled Facilitator Field Book (2005), Roger Schwarz et al �www. schwarzassociates. com
Facilitative Leadership Approach �Approach to leadership and group decision making �How one thinks is how one leads �Helps leaders shift beliefs, thus changes way they lead
An Illustrative Contrast Unilateral Control �I understand, you don’t. I’m right, you’re wrong. I will win. Facilitative Leadership Approach �I understand some things. So do you. Let’s learn and move forward together.
Unilateral Control Model Mindset Values Behavior Results Assumptions 1. State my views without asking for others’ views and vice versa q Be Right I understand the situation; those who disagree don’t Lower quality decisions § Ineffective solutions § Unnecessary costs q Minimize expression q of negative feelings I am right; those who disagree are wrong 2. Withhold relevant information q q Act rational I have pure motives; those who disagree have questionable motives 3. Speak in general terms and don’t agree on what important words mean Decreased commitment § Poor follow through on decisions § Solutions that don’t stick q Longer implementation times q My feelings and behavior are justified 4. Keep my reasoning private; don’t ask others about their reasoning q q I am not contributing to the problem Strained working relationships § Reduced trust § Defensiveness § Unproductive conflict § Inappropriate dependence on others q Less personal satisfaction § Missed opportunities for growth and development § Unnecessary stress q Decreased learning § Misunderstanding § Denial and blaming others for mistakes § Rigidity q Win, don't lose q q q 5. Act on untested assumptions and inferences as if they were true 6. Control the conversation 7. Focus on positions, not interests 8. Avoid, ease-in to, or save face on difficult issues 9. Use an arbitrary decision rule or don’t discuss it Source: Adapted from Argyris & Schön, 1974, and Action Design, 1997.
Facilitative Leadership Approach Mindset Values q Transparency q Curiosity q Accountability q Informed Choice q Behavior Results Assumptions q I have some information; so do other people q Each of us may see things the others don’t q I may be contributing to the problem 1. State views and ask genuine questions 2. 3. Compassion q Differences are opportunities for learning q People may disagree with me and have pure motives Source: Adapted from Argyris & Schön, 1974, and Action Design, 1997. q Higher quality decisions § Innovative solutions § Cost savings Share all relevant information q Use specific examples and agree on what important words mean Increased commitment § Follow through on decisions § Solutions that stick q Shorter implementation times q Improved working relationships § More trust § Less defensiveness § Productive conflict § Appropriate dependence on others q Greater personal satisfaction § Increased growth and development § Less stress q Increased learning § Greater understanding § Embracing and learning from mistakes § Greater adaptability 4. Explain reasoning and intent 5. Test assumptions and inferences 6. Jointly design next steps 7. Focus on interests, not positions 8. Discuss undiscussable issues 9. Use a decision-making rule that generates the level of commitment needed.
Facilitative Leadership Approach �Mutual ◦ Midset Learning: �Values �Assumptions ◦ “Ground rules” - behaviours ◦ Results
Mutual Learning Mindset: Values �Transparency – sharing relevant info, including thoughts, feelings, intentions �Curiosity – being genuinely interested in others’ views; recognizing other people have info that you do not �Accountability - accepting responsibility for actions and consequences
Mutual Learning Mindset: Values �Informed choice – making decisions and maximizing others’ abilities to make decisions based on relevant info in way that builds commitment �Compassion - willing to temporarily suspend judgment to appreciate your own and others’ situations
Mutual Learning Mindset: Assumptions �I have info and so do other people �People may disagree with me and still have pure motives �I may be contributing to problem �Each of us sees things others do not �Differences are opportunities for learning
Mutual Learning Behaviours 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. State views and ask genuine questions Share all relevant info Use specific examples and agree on what important words mean Explain reasoning and intent Test assumptions and inferences Jointly design next steps Focus on interests, not positions Discuss “undiscussable” issues Use decision making rule that generates commitment level needed
Mutual Learning Results �Provide more guidance than procedural or abstract ground rules �Shorter implementation times �Increased commitment �Higher quality decisions �Increased learning �Improved working relationships �Greater personal satisfaction and well -being
Case Example � You are a PA working in an inpatient ward of a hospital � On a recent initiative conducted by Infection, Prevention and Control, your team scored lowest on proper hand hygiene audit � Your team consists of a physician, nurse, pharmacist, physiotherapist, social worker, and students (and yourself, the PA) � You are meeting with your team
1. State Your Views and Ask Questions © The New Yorker Collection Robert Mankoff from cartoonbank. com. All Rights Reserved.
1. State Your Views and Ask Questions � State your point of view and explain your reasoning � Avoid rhetorical or leading questions ◦ “Do you really think will work? ” � Ask genuine questions that stem from curiosity ◦ “I’m not seeing how this will work because of x. What are you seeing that leads you to think it will work? ”
2. Share All Relevant Information �Help create common pool of info that everyone can use �Relevant information – anything that might affect decision �People underestimate dangers of not sharing relevant information �Feelings ARE relevant
3. Use Specific Examples and Agree What Important Words Mean https: //www. pinterest. com/pin/178103360235496402/
3. Use Specific Examples and Agree What Important Words Mean �We use A LOT of jargon and abbreviations �PAs are team-based, interprofessional clinicians, we don’t just communicate with physicians and nurses! �Shared understanding is key to decision buy-in
4. Explain Your Reasoning and Intent � We are hard-wired to make meaning out of events � Providing explanation helps reduce others making assumptions � Sharing your reasoning more transparent trust � Be curious, and ask others to do same
5. Test Assumptions and Inferences © The New Yorker Collection Cheney from cartoonbank. com. All Rights Reserved.
5. Test Assumptions and Inferences �Assumption – taking something for granted, without any info �Inference – drawing conclusion about things you don’t know, based on things you don’t know �Step 1 – awareness �Step 2 - identify what other person said/did that led to your inference
6. Jointly Design Next Steps and Ways to Test Disagreements �Advocate your point of view, inquire how others see it, jointly craft next step �This invites people to share their thoughts and challenge status quo �Inviting team members to actively participate in designing solution translates into stronger buy-in
7. Focus on Interests Not Positions � Interests – criteria that need to be met in order to solve problem in way people support � Interests motivate people, can be quite fixed � Positions - what people think will serve their motivations, can be very flexible � Focusing on interests creates more options for potential solutions that meet those interests
8. Discuss “Undiscussables”
8. Discuss “Undiscussables” �Issues not discussed openly by team �Relevant to team’s work �Often discussed everywhere else except team �Reduces team’s effectiveness �Most difficult ground rule �Approach with compassion
9. Use a Decision Making Rule that Generates the Level of Commitment Needed Group decision-making process types: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. � Unilateral Delegative Consultative Democratic Consensus When you need greater commitment to ensure decision is implemented effectively, it makes sense to have greater involvement in process
