METHODOLOGY 1. ADAPTIVE LEADERSHIP What is Adaptive Leadership?

  • Adaptive Leadership is a framework that views leadership as a practice, rather than a position. It draws on a core idea that individuals should conserve what’s working for them, let go of what’s holding them back and grow new behaviors and traits that enable them to thrive in new conditions. This approach assists individuals and organizations to adapt and thrive in fast changing environments and make meaningful progress on intimidating and tough challenges.
  • The Adaptive Leadership framework understands that adaptation, especially the letting go aspect, can be very difficult and painful for the people involved. Professors Ron Heifetz & Marty Linsky developed the framework at Harvard University School of Government to help practitioners understand their

terrain, the nature of the challenge, appreciate predictable responses and generate collective responses that make a difference to the status quo. It provides a set of social skills and awareness that allow humans to work together, tackle tough challenges and thrive. Why Adaptive Leadership?

  1. Adaptive Leaders make progress and get better results because of their ability to embrace change.
  2. The ability to adapt is essential for individuals who are experiencing the impact of a changing world at a personal and organizational level.
  3. Adaptive Leadership optimizes individual’s performance by addressing behavioral traits that stand in the way of utilizing potential.
  4. Adaptive leadership will bridge the gap between organizational goals and staff loyalties.

       Expected Outcomes

  1. Effectively interpret and diagnose existing challenges.
  2. Stakeholder collaboration and ownership of work at all levels
  3. Generate interventions that are beyond self-imposed constraints and limitations.
  4. Deepen your ‘self’ and ‘systemic’ reflective skills.
  5. Cultivate the art of listening to whole people and problems; and
  6. Navigate the grief and loss inherent in change leadership.

 METHODOLOGY 2 – TRAINING MENTOR LEADERS What is Mentorship? Mentorship is an intentional relationship that facilitates accelerated learning by allowing a more skilled and experience person to transfer their knowledge, wisdom and skills to a less skilled and experience person.  This is done though deliberate teaching methods and use of essential skills that aid growth. Why Mentorship For Team Leads?
