Topic 4: What it Means to Flip Your Script and Six
Flips
- Flip Your Script from me, myself and I TO we and team
- Six Flips:
1) Mindset
2) Skills - particularly in the areas of
Communication and Influence
3) Relationships (BIGGEST IMPACT - DO THIS
NOW)
- have a proactive conversation with
all new Peer to Boss relationships, do not leave this unspoken with
former 'best friends' you are now managing
- focus on Direction, Alignment and
Commitment
(Suzie Mentioned the Dashboard tool, here are two tools for
understanding:
Podcast #20 - Setting Performance Expectations the Easy Way w/ a
Dashboard
and a video demonstration of the Dashboard Process - Three Easy
Steps )
4) Do It All Attitude - learn to delegate,
develop, mentor
5) Perspective - dealing with politics, broaden
your focus, your network matters
6) Focus - character strength (CAN BE MOST
CHALLENGING)
- there's a lot more grey area as a
leader
- values alignment - get clear and let
others know, use to guide decisions
- In senior roles - integrity means the
most to their success; if we are not gauging this in younger
leaders - you could be promoting people into senior leadership
roles.
