YOUR TURN
YOUR TURN
MY CHALLENGE TO YOU
1. Lead by Example - Reflect

               Observe how
               often you fall
               short of the
               expectations you
               have for your staff.
2. Shared Vision for the
      future - Test
              Get out and ask one of
              your most junior staff
              what they think the
              vision is and how they
              personally fit into it
3. Enable Others to Act -
         Examine
               Starting with you the
               leader - does your style
               empower others by
               allowing creativity in
               ‘The How’ while holding
               accountable for ‘The
               What’?
3. Enable Others to Act -
         Examine

               Remove barriers, provide
               resources and become the
               coach; not a manager or
               mentor
4. Challenge the Process -
    Be Open Minded
                Be open to challenges then
                challenge others’ thinking
                and established practices
                Find ways to stretch
4. Challenge the Process -
    Be Open Minded
                Be open to challenges then
                challenge others’ thinking
                and established practices
                Find ways to stretch


                Ask yourself, “Is there a
                better way?”
5. Encourage the Heart -
         Uplift
              Look for and
              feedback the
              good things and
              help with the
              learning, Coach
