Do they know what is on your agenda?
Is your leadership a game that you are playing and hoping that those around you are “getting it”?
Establishing and using a leadership agenda will give you a source of personal motivation, a clarity about what you truly want and need to do and, most importantly, a set of actions which others can understand and help you with.
Your leadership agenda is built up by helping you focus on the key innate strengths that you have and relating them to the opportunities and necessities you have in your role.
Drawing on personal reflection, self assessment, feedback and individual consulting sessions you are given a framework to establish the small number of actions which will make the most difference to your personal impact and personal satisfaction.
This will also help you to address your significant weaknesses. Probably just one or two. These are the things that slow you down, drain your energy and are likely to be causing problems for others. Once you have settled on a handful of key strengths and one or two significant weaknesses, then you are ready to create your personal agenda.
After this you are given a set of actions and processes which will enable you to fully utilise your agenda and support you to keep it going. The impact on others is regularly described as “huge”, “immediate”, “startling” and “very motivating”.
The work we did on sharing our leadership agendas was a massive step forward. We would never have done this ourselves. You enabled us to look at ourselves and each other. We were then much more able to communicate openly and comfortably about the way ahead for all of us. You didn’t theorise about it but brought it back to individual experiences and applications.
Everyone values the personal and private nature of the one to one’s – they have helped enormously.
