We blend this with the specific needs of the client. We co-create the design with our clients.
At leadership centre we refer to the “Who am I “ as “Orientations”. The Orientations which have direct impact on our leadership, we call it “Leadership Orientations”. We have through our research identified the following orientations as “Leadership Orientations”.
These are the lego blocks which build the super-structure of leadership abilities like Strategic orientation, Decision Making, Collaboration, sensitivity, Results orientation etc.
- Thinking
- Risk Appetite
- Power
- Interpersonal/Political
- Ambition
- Trust
- Learning
- Nuturance
- Result/Closure
We believe that leadership is more than skill and style. Leadership is predicated by a person’s orientations (typical behaviors) which shapes the leadership abilities and its fit to a context. The broader the fit of the orientation the more versatile a person is in his exercise of leadership in a variety of contexts. Thus, in our engagements with our clients we work with the individual using the action-consequence model to link up one’s leadership orientations (typical behaviors) to outcomes:
Leadership is a social skill. Socially aware people shape the thought, emotions and actions of others better. The key to social-awareness is self-awareness. We help our learners become aware, gain insights and discover their fullest leadership potential. This in turn builds organizational leadership capacity & capabilities.
This is the approach of classical facilitation:
-This model of learning works on the ‘Orientation Toning process’, which is using ‘Restraint and Release’ of thought, emotions and actions. This release is moderated according to the demands of a context, without being tied down by one’s default settings.
