“Three Signs of a Miserable Job”sourced from Patrick Lencioni Anonymity + Irrelevance + Immeasurement = MISERY
Some Core Leadership Ideas sourced from Simon Sinek’s Start With Why Leaders know why, how, and what Why do I lead? Why does what we do matter? Purpose/relevance to group? How do I lead? Show enthusiasm, Invite participation,reinforce realistic optimism, tell inspiring anecdotes and stories. What do I accomplish as a leader? What are the products and outcomes that happen?

Tips: Supervision that Works
The “Switch” Change Modelsourced from Switch by Chip and Dan Heath "When change works… people who change have clear direction, ample motivation, and a supportive environment. Small changes tend to snowball. But this is not the same as saying that change is easy." - Chip and Dan Heath
Direct the Rider (Reason) Resistance to change may be a lack of clarity. Specify manageable next steps in the right direction. Motivate the Elephant (Emotion) Connect on an emotional level, to keep the Elephant moving. Shrink the change, so it doesn't spook the Elephant. Shape the Path (Process) If you want people to change, make the process easier.
Example of Switch A manager got feedback that she wasn’t really listening… Direct the rider Productive communication builds a stronger team and accelerates career. Motivate the elephant Find something that feels good on an emotional level that I can sustain… shrink the change. What small thing can I do? Shape the path She moved office furniture so she had a meeting area where she wasn't tempted to glance at her computer screen. She tweaked the environment so she had no choice but to connect better…
Your Examples of Positive Change Shape the path (large group) What implementations have made processes better at OFI or other places you have worked? What has worked well? Think small. One example that comes to mind: cutting down on numbers of repeat participants at TANF Orientations. This made for more confidence and less anxiety for presenters. The change appealed to the rider and the elephant… Exercise
“Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less.” John C. Maxwell
Leadership = Influence Sourced from Influence: Science and Practice, Cialdini
“People give back the kind of treatment they received from you.” Especially when you go first.
Reciprocation What items can you “give first” to team members? Moments of influence come after “thank you.”
Urgency / Scarcity – People focus on what they think may be disappearing. What does losing out “look like”?
People are persuaded when they sense knowledge and credibility. Show confidence through tone and body language. Authority
Consistency People are more willing to act if the action is consistent with what they have said publicly. I dare to jump off the highest point of the pier.
Consensus People will be likely to say yes to your request if you give them evidence that people just like them have been saying yes to it.
Liking People say yes to people with similarities - people who give compliments and make cooperative efforts. They don’t need to “like” you in the way of BFFs. You influence by common-ground liking them.
“Emotional Intelligence” (EQ)Sourced from What Makes a Leader? - Daniel Goleman 5 Components of EQ - Self-awareness - Self-regulation - Motivation - Empathy - Social skill
The 5 Components of EQ Source: Daniel Goleman, “What Makes a great Leader?”
Your Personal & Professional EQ Exercise Golden rule, platinum rule, and “currency” Being more intentional about your EQ willpay huge dividends in your professional life.Being intentional doesn’t mean being fake. Please take a few minutes to do an “EQ self-assessment” - see handout.

EQ in giving and receiving feedback feed-forward Be Factualfacts, not rumor Be Clearat least as clear as the situation allows you to be Be Accurateif we use the words "always" or "never,” we need to make sure we are accurate. Be Objectiveseparate the behavior from the person. It is better to say, “It affects the whole team when you…” Be an Investor the goal is to help people develop – be prepared to be the receiver as well as the giver.
Giving and receiving feedback Use “and” instead of but, “our” instead of my Be careful of the “comma but” syndrome – instead, pause after the positive… and use and – And try to say “our” team and “our people” Try for more positive than negative Studies show feedback is much more effective in changing behaviors if positive, specific feedback outnumbers negative, specific feedback.
