Why we are Unique
Leaders learn 3 Interdependent Skillsets: Focused Engagement, Invite Feedback, and Demonstrate Accountability.
All 3 skillsets, below and to the right, work interdependently so leaders can influence alignment and build high performing teams. For this to happen, leaders must get these 3 skillsets right, and become fluent with how they interrelate in their real-world context.
Applying these Interdependent Skillsets, leaders interact with team members and cross-functional partners differently as they create Experiences, driving needed Opinions and Behaviors to achieve Targeted Results.
The need to Focus Engagement of directs and cross functional partners around Targeted Results:
- 85% of survey participants don’t understand what their organization is trying to achieve, and 93% of those surveyed are unable to align their work or take accountability for desired results.1
- 51% of managers and employees say their leaders do not outline clear success metrics for change.2
- 74% of employees that they did not effectively change how they work after focusing on a particular change.3
The need to Invite Feedback
- TruBridge tracks data from engagements for over 8 years showing when leaders engage in feedback, 90% of it is Giving Unsolicited Feedback compared to 10% Inviting Feedback.
- Most leaders erroneously believe that Giving Unsolicited Feedback is their job because they are the boss.
- An unbalanced approach leads to disengagement, lack of contribution, poor communication, and ultimately undermines Targeted Results.
The need to Demonstrate Accountability
- 84% of the workforce describes itself as “trying but failing”, or “avoiding” accountability, and 80% of people see accountability as punishing.1
- 91% of respondents rank improving the ability to hold others accountable in an effective way as one of the top leadership development needs of their organization.2
