Reflections on last week 2

Building a Tribe Session Seven

The challenge is to be a light, not a judge; to be a model, not a critic Steven Covey

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Maya Angelou

The Trust Equation C + R + I S-O

Trust is… . …the willingness to take risk or be vulnerable to another person when there is something of importance to be lost… 7

How do you prefer to be managed? 8

Do you have the skill and the will? The competence and commitment? 9

Maturity Level One Enthusiastic and willing, but lacking in knowledge and ability. High Will – Low Skill “Enthusiastic Beginner” 10

Maturity Level Two Not ready to solo. Low commitment to the task. Some Skill – Low Will “Disillusioned Learner” 11

Maturity Level Three Capable, but not confident. Higher Skill – Wavering Will “Cautious Performer” 12

Maturity Level Four Highly capable and confident in abilities. Motivated to succeed. High Skill – High Will “Self-Reliant Achiever” 13

How do you manage that? “Treating people of unequal ability equally is patently unfair and ineffective. ” 14

Leadership Style 1: Directing “I am going to tell you what to do and how to do it. ” “Telling” 15

Leadership Style 2: Coaching “I am going to tell you what I think you should do and we are going to work on this together. ” “Selling” 16

Leadership Style 3: Supporting “How do you think we should do this? I am here to help you succeed. ” “Participating” 17

Leadership Style 4: Delegating “Here is the task and here is my cell phone number. ” “Ignoring” 18
