COLLECTIVE LEADERSHIP: HOW TO UNLEASH PRODUCTIVITY, POTENTIAL AND POWER OF PURPOSE

With Jim Quigley

  • Achieve your organization's goals through effective and deliberate collaboration.
  • How to identify the eight key archetypes of leadership.

    Modern management theory has us moving away from a command and control style of management toward a more collaborative style of collective leadership. According to Jim Quigley, this need not be an either-or discussion; some processes within your organizational hierarchy will lend themselves to collaboration, while others will call for a traditional top-down approach.

    Based on the results of a major, global research project at Deloitte, which includes case studies of companies such as Apple, Marriott and Tata, this session explores what organizations can learn from innovative leadership styles and how leaders can get people to work together effectively toward their defined goals.

    GEN Y DECODED: INSIGHTS AND TACTICS FOR LEADERS

    With Kit Yarrow

  • They're not just young, they're different.
  • Why meaningful work may trump salary as a motivator.
  • How Gen Y and Boomers can help each other.

    Today's young workers are a new breed, thanks to two unique forces in their upbringing. Raised during the self-esteem movement, they are often self-confident and used to attention. And the first generation to grow up with technology, they work fast and expect fast results. In the workforce, they can seem demanding, even disrespectful of authority, especially the occasional "roaring tiger" with an inflated sense of entitlement.

    Leaders that adjust their communication styles and expectations will succeed in connecting with and motivating this group. Dr. Yarrow's tips for effectively managing Gen Y include providing context, relevance, and purpose for their work. Give frequent, personal feedback and recognize their unique skills. To counter boredom, stay innovative in practices and technology, provide opportunities for learning, travel, or career development. Perhaps most important, protect your best employees from the roaring tigers.

    MANAGING GENERATION Y

    Three generations are now in the workplace, and the youngest - Generation Y - are making their mark. They view the workplace very differently from Baby Boomers or Generation X. Having grown up with technology, they are digital natives - information and communication has always been instant. They want to go a long way in a short time; they often don't settle for just being told - they want to know why; and being constantly connected with a social network is, more often than not, critical to survival. Featuring comment from author and director of Essence Communications Penny Burke, James Masini from Hippo Jobs and Susan Lin, the Young Australian Businessperson of the Year, this program explores a range of issues and strategies associated with attracting, retaining, effectively managing, and capitalising on the many strengths of Generation Y workers.

    Key Learning Points
  • Understanding the characteristics of Generation X and the Baby Boomers
  • Understanding the needs, experiences and wants of Generation Y
  • Strategies for managing Generation Y
  • Strategies for making workplace change in order to attract and retain Generation Y

    MANAGEMENT STYLES 1: THE AUTOCRATIC MANAGER

    This classic best seller vividly illustrates different management styles in action. Tony Spence is the epitome of the autocratic manager. Shouting and swearing, he bullies and generally humiliates his team of sales people.

    By contrast, supermarket personnel manager June takes a more bureaucratic approach, strictly applying the rules and regulations.

    Consultative manager Geoff believes in the human touch and says his door "is always open". Marketing manager Marion has a special challenge: trying to push through change against bitter opposition in a local council.

    MANAGEMENT STYLES 2: FOUR CASE STUDIES

    Textbooks speak of three management styles - autocratic, democratic and laissez faire. But how neatly do people fit into these categories? Lively case studies show what happens in the real world.

    Angel or devil? Notoriously autocratic manager Tony Spence has found religion! When his assistant comes late, he forgives him. But then his patience snaps...

    Limits of Democracy: Simon prides himself on being open-minded. He listens to staff and involves them in decision-making. But if they show initiative, he gets heavy.

    Honest Tyrant: Janice lays down the law and heaven help those who cross her. But at least she's honest - and looks after her people.

    The Invisible Manager: Richard makes much of "empowering" his staff- in reality he leaves them to sink or swim. When vital decisions are to be made, Richard takes refuge in the toilet!

  • The leadership video exposes viewers to leaders at all levels, from the corporate suite to the produce department of a natural foods chain. And even the celebrities decline celebrity.

    BUILDING THE PERFECT TEAM: BELBIN'S TEAM ROLE THEORY IN ACTION

    Featuring Barbara Flynn and Duncan Preston

    To appreciate the nine key team roles, and balance an effective team accordingly.

    Managers must understand that people bring more than their skills and experience to a team; they bring their personalities as well. Utilising people's behavioural strengths to create a balanced team adds immensely to both group and personal performance.

    This programme dramatises Dr Meredith Belbin's team-role theory, and explains how to identify nine key team roles for a balanced team. In true-to-life scenarios, it shows that although each team member has a functional role they also have a team role and these are critical to the team's success. Each of the nine roles is defined and shown in action.

    Using a clearly explained structure, Dr Belbin reveals how teams with fewer members may need people to perform dual roles. He shows how behavioural skills can be assessed and how, with care, teams can be constructed that take account of hierarchies as well as personal interaction.

    The key outcomes
  • Build and balance the most effective team
  • Learn skills for team building, meetings and project management

    5 QUESTIONS EVERY LEADER MUST ASK: ENGAGING YOUR TEAM TO REACH ANY GOAL

    Today's leaders face tremendous pressure to solve problems, achieve goals, manage change and improve productivity. But leadership doesn't have to be so stressful. This program illustrates how solutions can easily present themselves when leaders ask team members the right questions and trust that "the answers are in the room."

    Based on the book, Leadership Made Simple,by Ed Oakley and Doug Krug the program introduces a proven process called The Framework for Leadership , consisting of 5 questions, which, when asked in a specific order, enable leaders to engage their team in finding and implementing effective solutions.

    The Framework keeps groups from getting bogged down in the issue itself and the things that aren't working. It focuses them instead on what is working. Possibilities and solutions are generated from there.

    The net effect is that:
  • Ideas, answers and solutions are born from the people closest to the work.
  • Conflicts are resolved and group dynamics are redirected in a positive way.
  • Employees become critical thinkers and have a sense of buy-in.
  • Ideas and solutions are successfully implemented.

    The program, hosted by Ed Oakley, teaches viewers the 5 questions and shows how real-world organizations have applied the framework to common, yet critical, workplace problems. Within the workshop, participants experience the versatility of the Framework as they complete exercises where the 5 questions are modified to suit specific situations or challenges. A follow-up "mini-framework" is taught for when the group needs to check in on their progress.

    Whether your organization is working to institute a change initiative, resolve conflict, raise customer satisfaction, launch a new product or address a specific workplace challenge, your group leaders can use this program to achieve successful results.

    FOLLOW THE LEADER

    Guess what? There's a whole new generation of business leaders in the incubator. The Gen X-ers, and Gen-Yers right behind them, demand a new kind of leadership training.

    Armed with hundreds of hours of research over thee years, Executive Producer Bob Allen, who himself spent twenty five years as a leader in the Disney organization, set out to create a fast-paced, reality television-like, leadership training program for young people that really works!

    Follow The Leader is a new "rubber meets the road" course featuring three very different business leaders - different ages, different places in their careers, and very different industries. But there's a common thread - they're all successful, and they all possess similar traits and behaviors as business leaders. We follow them around and learn from them on the job. We hear from their people. No gurus. No acronyms. It's about positive role models.

    LEADERSHIP AT EVERY LEVEL

    Imagine if all your good managers became great leaders. When you have leaders at all levels, and not just at the top, productivity climbs and the atmosphere improves throughout your organization.

    Good management skills are a start. But that's not what makes you a leader. What makes you a leader is the willingness of others to follow you. And this requires respect, admiration and many other intangibles that go into true leadership. Fortunately, even though not everyone is a "born leader," every manager in your organization has the potential to become a leader.

    This video begins by demonstrating successful management styles: direction, influence, collaboration, and delegation. It then explains how your setting and your subordinates determine which management style is most appropriate for your situation -- and the need to adapt to changing circumstances.

    Leaders need to:
  • Take initiative.
  • Treat everyone fairly.
  • Embrace change.
  • Develop their people.
  • Admit their mistakes.
  • Build community.

    Our dramatic scenes help you recognize leadership behaviors at all levels of an organization. You'll learn how to exhibit leadership by making good decisions and keeping your own emotions under control. And you'll learn the critical importance of personal integrity.

    Leadership takes more than good management. And there's no better time than right now for you to take it to the next level.
