  2. The Leadership Challenge Leadership isn’t about personality, it is about behavior • The exemplary leadership practices grounded in research Model the Way Inspire a Shared Vision Challenge the Process Enable Others to Act Encourage the Heart

  3. Key Points to: Model the Way • Clarify Values & Set the Example • People follow the person first and then the plan…why? • Credibility—DWYSYWD • Determine your guiding principles…what are your values? • What is the “great” • Let people know what you believe—open your heart • Forge values around common principles & ideals • QUESTION—how did the Bank America guy accomplish this?

  4. Model the Way Flow Chart • Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • Find your voice • Affirm shared values • Commitment #2—Set the Example

  5. Commitment #1: Clarifying Values • Essentials • Find your voice • Affirm shared values • Taking Action • Credo • Engage in dialogue

  6. Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • What do leaders have in common? • They believe in something • Their beliefs are strong and matters of principle • K & P research demonstrated that personal-best leadership cases were stories of people who remained true to deeply held values • In order to speak out you need to know what to speak out about

  7. Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • If you don’t believe the messenger you won’t believe the message… • You can’t believe the messenger if you don’t know what the messenger believes… • You can’t be the messenger until you’re clear about what you believe.

  8. Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • Look at p. 55 in the text • What do you notice? • Clarity of personal values trumps everything • Clarify of personal values coupled with clarity of organization values is most powerful • What does this mean? • Personal values are the “route to loyalty and commitment, not organizational values

  9. Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • In order to find your words and your style, you need to be crystal clear on what your values are. • Leaders set an example for all constituents based on a shared understanding of what’s expected • Unless there’s agreement about values, credibility is lost—people shouldn’t waste their time figuring out what they should be doing • Engage your teachers in a dialogue about what the good is and what is valuable

  10. Commitment #1—Clarify Your Values • Taking Action • Credo class assignment

  11. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Essentials • Personify the shared values • Teach others to model the values • Taking Action • Story telling • Develop a routine for questioning

  12. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Personify the Shared Values • Spend your time wisely • Watch your language • Ask purposeful question • Seek feedback • Teach Others to Model the Values • Confront critical incidents • Tell stories • Reinforce what you want repeated

  13. Commitment #2—Set the Example No one will believe you’re serious until they see you doing what you’re asking of others • Leaders recognize that they need to be mindful for the choices they make because they’re telling people what’s appropriate and what’s not

  14. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Spend your time and attention wisely E.g.—if achievement and high quality instruction are important, how much time do you spend with teachers and students?

  15. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Watch your language… E.g.—employee, manager, boss, supervisor, subordinates Versus Associates, crew, cast, team, colleagues, constituents • Leaders know the power of words P.82—experiment with confederate

  16. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Ask purposeful questions • The questions you ask imply your values What have you done in the past week so that you’re better this week than the last? How are we going to move towards deep implementation? What are we going to commit to and hold ourselves accountable to?

  17. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Seek feedback • It shows that you’re open to communication Does this make sense? Do you agree? Is this some kind of crazy dream? Can we do this?

  18. Commitment #2—Set the Example • If CREDIBILITY = DWYSYWD then… …how can you know you’re doing that if you don’t ask for feedback?

  19. Commitment #2—Set the Example • Teach Others to Model the Values • Confront critical incidents (e.g. our F/L BLT discussion) • Tell stories (e.g. 2nd grade teacher’s articulation of how student writing used to be prior to rubric and clarity of learning targets) • Reinforce behavior you want repeated (e.g. through your words and your actions)
