Welcome to the complimentary resources page for sustaining shared-view in the seven areas of significance where the most successful leaders stand out
Most of our troubles, personal, local, organisational, national, and international, are fundamentally based in our perceived need to hang onto the world in here (my view), our issues with the world out there (other people's views), and, our failure to focus more on the world we share (ours).
The exciting news is that when we find and sustain shared-view (ours) we can triumph over all our troubles.
In the workplace the most successful leaders sustain shared-view in seven areas of significance as overviewed in the diagnostic below. You can download the diagnostic here.
You can also download this diagnostic via a short action paper that I published in August 2019.
I take a quick look at each of the seven areas in the videos and podcasts below.
Reality
The 'one great idea' is that full appreciation of what is, dramatically increases your likelihood of achieving what can be (possibility).
Possibility
The 'one great idea' is that what we truly believe we can achieve.
Purpose
The 'one great idea' is that your life only has one purpose, so does your business, and the two are connected in an unbreakable way.
Strategy
The 'one great idea' is that strategy is the compass that guides your personal and business decisions, and execution is the map.
Execution
The 'one great idea' is that clever answers often hinder execution, whereas wise questions accelerate the process.
Progress
The 'one great idea' is that in the new world of work only the milestones and lead measures that have meaning for people have value.
NB I renamed this area Progress a year or so after filming. The idea comes from work with clients and 'The Progress Principle' i.e. "making meaningful progress visible."
Culture
The 'one great idea' is that behaviour determines your culture.
NB The latest version of the Valued, Values, Value model pictured is featured in my Heart-Leadership book which you can purchase here.
Performance Possibility Plans-on-a-page
The seven areas of shared-view are the focus areas of Performance Possibility Plans on a page that I assist my clients in developing and maintaining. I pioneered one page plans over 30 years ago. Today they are a key tool for focusing conversations about performance and helping people to be accountable. There are many ways to create a plan-on-a-page. The example below from my Heart-Leadership book is just one way. When we work together we'll determine what is the best way for you.
Next Step
Please consider joining the Wise Leaders Community. There are three levels of membership; Book Club, Egalitarian, and the Heart-Leadership Online Village. Learn more here.
My next book in the 21st century leadership series following on from Changing What's Normal and Heart-Leadership Become the wise lead you want to be, is a book about shared-view bringing in personal and relationship insights to the organisational ones above. My aim is to have this book published by the end of 2021. All my books are complimentary for Wise Leaders Community members.
