Managing Relationships: The Humble Mindset – (Tuesday Cohort)

charlestweedly · 07/24/2020

More traditional forms of leadership are based on maintaining transactional and rules based “professional relationships” in which we maintain social and professional distance. As organizations face more complex, interdependent tasks, leadership must become more personal to insure open, trusting communication that will make collaborative problem solving and innovation possible. The Humble Mindset calls for a reimagined form of leadership that coincides with emerging trends of relationship building, complex group work, diverse workforces, and cultures in which everyone feels psychological safety. Today’s leaders need build higher quality, trusting relationships more characteristic of friendships and effective teams.

In this module we focus on managing teams through Facilitative Leadership. Facilitative leaders:

1. Foster high quality connections and help others find meaning in their work.

2. Provide direction without totally taking the reins.

3. Learn to balance managing content and process.

4. Invite disclosure and feedback to help surface unacknowledged or invisible beliefs, thoughts, and patterns.

5. Focus on building the capacity of individuals and groups to be more productive and resourceful.

6. Operate from a position of restraint.
