10-Point System Multi-Dimensional Leadership System™

August 12, 2019

Positive Potentials’ 10-Point System Multi-Dimensional System™

In our book (see products), Magnetic Leadership, I pour my passion about the learned, values-driven leadership style. My theme centers around The End of Dominance: Enter the Multi-Dimensional Leader.

We have all heard about Servant Leadership and Shared Leadership. These ideas are much harder to implement. A company’s culture must be receptive to such ideas and demonstrate a desire to reap the benefits of such models.

The Multi-Dimensional Leader’s™ (MDL) model

The MDL makes decisions founded on long-range values and reasonable risk rather than reaction and illusion.

Has an innate sense of balance and alignment.
Dares to live daily integrity, even when it is difficult to “do the right thing.”
Possesses uncanny vision and courage to be different or contrarian.
Attracts and fosters self-reliant and self-motivated collaborations, people and resources.
Radiates emotional intelligence and teaches others this acquired skill just by being in her/his presence.
Embraces the value of mentoring and professional coaching
Cultivates entrepreneurial energy within the most rigid organization; breathes the vision to elevate the Purpose, Profits and Productivity for everyone within their sphere of influence.
Possesses presence and security to inspire confidence in others
Fosters Business Literacy™ throughout the company and service providers.
Respects and sponsors lifelong learning and models it.

When supporting our clients, we craft the vision in several ways:

• Identify qualities like those listed above.

• Determine Fish, flesh or fowl—What do you stand for?

• Offer strategic transitions, adaptation, and modification for the existing company culture to become the leader’s vision.

• Define, develop the Entrepreneur’s Mindset™* and apply Entrepreneurial Energy to each level of the company to stimulate ownership.

• Strategize and encourage visionary and values-driven leadership in others- productive associates and beneficial alliances who share the values.

The outcome of using Positive Potentials’ model is long-term results

• Generates increased revenue streams for maximum profitability and resilience in volatile markets.

• Uses Business Literacy™ and LaserLearning™ Principles to shorten the company’s learning curve (reduced bureaucracy, meritocracy rewards, open architecture, and boosted prized innovation).

• Manifests self-referred associates bringing freshness to their positions for greater accuracy and energy.

• Effortless flow rather PUSH/PULL. Stimulates flow performance (based on Mihaly Csiksentmihaly work with optimal experience.)

• Demonstrates value of streamlined and integrated business operations and processes focused on positive outcomes and results.

• Inspires all associated with the company and its providers to meaningful work and output, referrals, increased sales, and branding.

What is Your Catalyst for Change?

August 9, 2019

Enjoy this excerpt from Business to the Third Power.

What is Your Catalyst for Change?

Consider different outcomes in your decisions.

When working toward a decision, the obvious choice is not always the best outcome.

Being a parent, leader, or business owner can be like “swatting flies!” Can you hear the buzzing now?

Swatting flies is similar to the overload thinking, chattery activity, that swirls in our expanding heads. This swirling creates the buzzing when we haven’t navigated a way to extract or define the information to the outside of our heads!

Part of this “swatting-flies” phenomenon is due to the fact that our biology has not kept pace with our technology™. Our biology is still 10,000 years old! We’re overwhelmed and overstimulated by our surroundings and technology.

What does this have to do with a catalyst for change?

I suggest there is another way to live and manage change; you always suspected there might be. Change is disruptive especially when unexpected. We can prepare for change so the impact can be used to our advantage.

Consider our daily exposures:

Too much external stimuli. Constant bombardment of sound pollution, elected or otherwise.
Incapacity to process and assimilate information, creates Info Anxiety ™.
Not enough rest time (not sleep).
Lack of focus due to distractions; fueled by shoulds, have to’s and judgment.
Active pursuit of other’s ideas, not our own creating Seepage™* and energy drain.
Exposure to deliberate misinformation to cloud personal judgment (urban legends), jokes on email, plausible deniability leaks, etc.)

To begin, I recommend that you create an antidote solution for each bullet item above. Then, continue with your personal items and write the antidotes for them.

What does this have to do with a catalyst for change?

I suggest there is another way to live; you always suspected there might be. Follow me…for a sneak peek into alternatives to contempo-babble™, the buzz of contemporary living.

See our companion Field Guide Book Thriving in the Midst of Change under products. It can be your personal advisory board to support your decisions and next moves. Use our book to follow me and the experts at your fingertips.

PS:

I call if a Field Guide Book, much like the military generals use in their operations—you cannot know or remember everything!

Transform Managers into Coaches

August 9, 2019

The easiest way to boost performance is to transform managers into coaches! Poof!

Life is full of moving parts.

Easier said than done, I admit. However, here is an easy method to begin the magical transformation.

Define terms

Ask questions like these:

What does a coach do?
What about you would make you a positive coach?
How can you make “room” for mistakes?
1. Buddy system so they check their own work
2. Have “lab” sessions to allow people to noodle and doodle their way to a solution.
3. Encourage engagement around participation rather than having the “right” answer. There may not be a right answer.

Coaching is sharing, not telling.

Build confidence and trust. When a manager coaches rather than directs, the team members are more confident and less likely to feel criticized. They must feel that the manager trusts them to deliver on the promise.

Move from bossing to managing your team. When you present the initial idea and due dates, have the team choose where they can apply their strengths. Have the overview and be sure the team has the tools and expertise required for an optimum outcome. You must assess this before the project starts.

Coaching speaks to investment because the team member is valuable. Every person is responsible for a positive outcome. If people are not equally contributing, allow the team members to bring them along, usually done by the team leader.

Managers must be open to feedback. Grow your team’s performance when they are appreciated and know you expect their feedback and input.

The manager will not only have less interruptions (yeh!), your team will be more productive and innovative when they know their input matters. Be sure to interact with all the “moving parts” of the project. However, don’t just do a status report around the table. Have members explain how their portion of the project interacts with the others. Have them gather to produce a graphic, for example. This builds camaraderie and communication skills, you will enjoy more respect back as you extend it to others.
