Study Notes

Think Win/Win Principles of Interpersonal Leadership

  • Interdependence and Leadership: Leadership emerges when individuals move from independence to interdependence, influencing others. The principle of "Think Win/Win" is central to effective interpersonal leadership.

Six Paradigms of Human Interaction

  • Win/Win: A philosophy seeking mutual benefit in all interactions. Agreements are mutually satisfying, positive outcomes for all parties, considering life as a cooperative rather than competitive arena. It's based on the belief there's plenty for everyone, one person's success doesn't exclude another's. It embodies the "Third Alternative."

  • Win/Lose: This paradigm ("Race to Bermuda") positions situations as win-or-lose, where one person's gain comes at another's expense, often using power, position, or other advantages. Deeply rooted in personal scripting, often from family and peer influences, as well as from educational and athletic contexts.

  • Lose/Win: A compromising mentality, where one gives in to accommodate another, driven by a desire to please or avoid conflict. Often shows a lack of personal confidence and a belief of personal weakness, resulting in suppressed feelings and potential long-term resentment.

  • Lose/Lose: The result of two Win/Lose individuals colliding, leading to conflict, vindictiveness, and mutual detriment.

  • Win: Sole focus on individual gain, disregarding others' outcomes, often appropriate in non-interdependent scenarios.

  • Win/Win or No Deal: A further evolution of Win/Win. It entails a willingness to walk away from a deal if a truly mutually beneficial outcome is not achievable, promoting honesty and preventing disillusionment.

Five Dimensions of Win/Win

  • Character: The foundation of Win/Win built on three traits:

  • Integrity: Valuing self, making and keeping commitments, necessary for trust.

  • Maturity: Balance between courage and consideration, recognizing the importance of empathetic understanding of others' perspectives.

  • Abundance Mentality: Belief that resources and opportunity are plentiful, fostering sharing, collaboration, and joy in others' success.

  • Relationships: High Emotional Bank Accounts (trust deposits) are essential for open communication, mutual learning, and synergistic solutions. Focus on the Circle of Influence to build deposits.

  • Agreements: Win/Win Agreements clarify expectations, desired results (not methods), guidelines, resources, accountability, and consequences for interdependent interactions. These agreements are liberating and promote self-supervision.

  • Systems: Systems must support and reinforce Win/Win values for sustaining the paradigm. Reward systems should align with desired goals and values.

  • Processes: Win/Win solutions require a process that places emphasis on understanding other’s perspectives, identifying key issues and concerns, determining mutually beneficial outcomes, and devising creative options for solutions. Using a "principled" approach is crucial, as outlined in books like "Getting to Yes."
