Study Notes
Leadership Framework Summary
-
Consistent Element: Business and leadership remain consistent regardless of industry or organization size (large multinational, Fortune 500, midsized, startup). The language (acronyms) changes.
-
Framework Focus: The framework focuses on two key leadership impact areas: decisions and influence.
-
Simple but Not Easy: While the framework is simple to understand, applying its seven perspectives requires significant time commitment. Leaders must prioritize and make strategic choices about what to say "no" to.
-
Impact of Perspective Alignment: Allocating time to all seven perspectives (minimum 90 days) leads to improved decision-making confidence and courage, especially in the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment.
-
Importance of Information: Leaders cannot wait for 100% information; instead, they must gather information from the seven perspectives to make effective decisions and improve influence.
-
Momentum and Engagement: Consistent use of the perspectives increases engagement from team members.
-
Continuous Improvement: Business needs continual evolution and adaptation; Leaders need ongoing input to assess their effectiveness.
-
Framework Value: This framework provides a structured approach for leaders to connect the dots between leadership components, identify strengths and areas for development, and achieve more clarity and effectiveness.
