  1. TOOL TIME: CLUB IMPROVEMENT 9 TOOLS EVERY DÉJÀ VU LEADER MUST HAVE

  2. WHAT IS A DÉJÀ VU LEADER? • SUCCESSFUL LEADERSHIP SEEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN • WHEN WE SEE IT IN ACTION, WE ASK: WHY DOES THIS SEEM SO FAMILIAR?

  3. THREE REALIZATIONS • THEY WERE ALL SUCCESSFUL IN WHAT THEY DO • THEY ALL REACH THEIR GOALS • WHAT IS THE CONNECTION?

  4. REALIZATION NUMBER ONE: • THE ANSWER TO “Who is this person?” was not a person at all • It was a way of behaving • A clear pattern • A path • A certain set of good choices

  5. REALIZATION NUMBER TWO • People who found what they were looking for in life seem to do a certain set of things in common

  6. REALIZATION NUMBER THREE: • If you were not born with these patterns for leadership in place, you can learn them • They exist on their own and are available to all of us

  7. WHY USE THE NINE TOOLS OF DÉJÀ VU LEADERS? • THEY ARE UTTERLY DEPENDABLE • MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHEN USED • WHEN AVOIDED, DISASTER OCCURS • BRING SUCCESS AND HELP

  8. TOOL ONE: EXCAVATE YOUR SOUL • DÉJÀ VU LEADERS EXPLORE THEIR DEEP HEARTS • THEY INVEST IN THEIR INNER DESIRES AND AMBITIONS

  9. OPTIMIZE OPPORTUNITIES • Become aware of dreams and talents • Listen to them and value them • Develop them • Seek coaching • Find the buried treasure

  10. Put on Your Hard Hat And Take the Appropriate Risks • There is very little growth and reward in life without taking risks • Avoidance of risk is the greatest risk of all • Healthy risk occurs after much preparation

  11. Grasp Your Dreams • Reach for them • Take appropriate risks • Potential is something to be realized, so dig it up!!! • Life comes from the inside out

  12. Tool Two: Yank The Diseased Tooth • Déjà vu leaders do not allow negative things to take up space in their lives • If they can’t fix the bad stuff, they get rid of it • They get rid of negative energy

  13. Cavities to Fill, Teeth to Pull • Déjà vu leaders fill the cavities in the minor bad stuff and yank out the major bad stuff • Clear out clutter & dead weight that take up space and don’t help us • Get rid of the things you are not using • Fill the cavity or pull the tooth

  14. When to Call the Dentist • When all hope for the desired outcome has been exhausted • New things that actually have hope for the future cannot appear until you get rid of what was taking up the space that the new thing needs

  15. The Cringe Factor • What’s the Cringe Factor? • Déjà vu leaders don’t get into energy- drains to begin with • What is the little voice inside telling you?

  16. Tool Three: Play the Whole Movie • Déjà vu leaders evaluate their decisions in the present based on how they will affect the future • “If I do A, not only will B happen, but C will too. And D and E and F and G and on and on” • What will happen in the end?

  17. Give an Oscar-Winning Performance • Plot a movie…a vision of your life • See it, plan it and evaluate it in light of where the movie is supposed to end • Make sure you have the right supporting cast • You will be a successful leader and have a life well lived

  18. Tool Four: Put Superman Out of a Job • Déjà vu leaders continually ask themselves, “What can I do to make this situation better?” • They call on themselves as the first source to correct difficult situations

  19. Déjà Vu Leaders Make a Move • They live out the “get moving approach” • They get out of the phone booth • They do something SUPER • Send Superman to the unemployment line!

  20. Tool Five: Embrace Your Inner Insect • Déjà vu leaders achieve big goals by taking small steps over time • Every feat ahead of us is really no more complex than one step at a time, one grain of sand at a time

  21. Déjà Vu Leaders Achieve Big Goals By Taking Small Steps Over Time • They achieve their successes by embracing their inner insect and acting like an ant • They don’t have ‘all or nothing’ thinking • They realize that wanting it all keeps you from having any • They know that wanting it now keeps you from having it

  22. What Are Your Ant Farms? • We get overwhelmed by the obstacles standing between us and our goals • Take a one-grain-at-a-time approach • Enjoy success as a leader like you never thought possible

  23. Tool Six: Earn a Black Belt in Hate • Déjà vu leaders develop the ability to hate the right things well • What we hate says a lot about who we are • Character is in part formed by what we hate, because we move to be different from whatever it is

  24. Hate or Tolerate? • What will you tolerate? What will you not? • Make your values intentional • Deal with your subjective hatred • Mix hate with love and respect=an integrated character • Build your skills • Choose to respond in a constructive way

  25. Tool Seven: Forget About Playing Fair • Déjà vu leaders give back better than they are given • The fault with fairness is that the other person must be good so I can be good • Fair is good, but it does not work

  26. Getting Beyond Fair • To succeed in leadership and life do not go around settling scores • Get rid of anger • Ask yourself what is helpful • Get past your own need • Ask how you have contributed • Give the opposite • Don’t play fair, play right

  27. Tool Eight: Quit Self-Exaggerating • Déjà vu leaders do not strive to be or to appear more than they really are • They live by the humility principle: They know they are who they are • Humility is being insignificant, unpretentious

  28. Everybody Screws Up!!!! • Leaders know that failures are part of the path to success and even successful people go through loss, failure and crises • Admit quickly when you are wrong • Receive correction from others well • The way of the déjà vu leader is basically to be “real”

  29. Tool Nine: Ignore the Popularity Polls • Déjà vu leaders do not make decisions based upon the fear of other people’s reactions • They know the difference between hurting someone and harming them • It’s like surgery • They go against the odds if the odds are against what is right

  30. Set Your Heading • To be a successful leader, you may not keep everyone around you happy • If you are successful you will tick some people off!!! • Don’t count your critics, weigh them • Make sure you are upsetting the controlling, irresponsible and manipulative people, not the kind and honest and responsible people

  31. Becoming A Déjà Vu Leader 11 honing and polishing tools: • Don’t go it alone • Seek wisdom • Receive feedback and correction • Find models • Review your patterns • Deal with impediments • Practice, practice, practice, and fail • Change your beliefs • Quarantine your weaknesses • Put your vision and goals on paper • Be accountable

  32. Be a Déjà Vu Leader • Put these tools to work for you • Look forward to the time when you do or say something that seems familiar to you-it’s not the Twilight Zone-IT’S DÉJÀ VU!!!!!
