To paraphrase a famous bumper sticker, “change
happens”. Change is inevitable, and today, pervasive. The speed and sweep of changes today in our business and personal worlds can tempt many leaders to
retreat into old patterns of reactive behavior. Command and control can appear to offer a simple method for
managing complex changes. However, to freeze is to die. The ability for an organization to change and
grow is in direct proportion to the leaderships' abilities to change and grow themselves.

In this rapidly changing business climate one thing remains constant:
the need to attract and retain focused, productive employees.
A difficult period of cost cutting and labor reduction has left more than a few business leaders smugly
confident that their new 'lean and mean' teams are ready and eager to help launch the business into a new
period of higher production and improved profits. The reality may be that an improved business climate
may soon signal wholesale defections of the best and the brightest from companies that have treated them
as easily-expendable automatons. |

More than ever,
talented employees are looking for companies, and
especially their leaders, who are committed to
employee personal well-being and professional growth. People go
to work for organiza- tions they value, they continue to
work for companies that value them. The most effective leaders
bring maximum value to their organizations by first bringing
value to their employees.
Many company owners, CEO's and top managers have come to realize
that the old model of impersonal, emotionless leadership
has often resulted in cynical, disconnected employees.
These
|
|
enlightened
leaders are creating new organizational models based on
commitment to humility-based, employee-focused, personally
transparent leadership; what we call Self
Propelled LeadershipSM.
People go to work for organizations they value
They continue working for organizations that value them
Self Propelled Leadership is
a model of leadership that focuses on the 'leader as lesson'.
Self propelled leaders are models of self-awareness,
self-management, empathy and inter-personal competency.
In short, self propelled leaders are highly emotionally
intelligent.
