Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other. Leadership Development focuses on developing John F.

TREY research 5 The Action-Observation- Reflection Model It shows that leadership development is enhanced when the experience involves the following processes: Action Observation Reflection The Spiral of experience is the most productive way to develop as a leader. Add a footer TREY research 6 The A-O-R Model Leadership development through experience may be better understood as the growth resulting from repeated movements through all three phases rather than merely in terms of some objective dimension. Add a footer TREY research 7 Learning theorists suggest that people can learn the most from experiences when they spend time thinking about and reflecting on those experiences. This notion provides the basis for the action-observation-reflection (A-O-R) model and the spiral of experience. It is not enough just to have experiences, but one needs to think about what they did, what the outcomes were, and how they can leverage what they did to learn the skills required to continue to perform effectively or how they can change to be more effective. Developing the skills necessary to observe the consequences of one’s actions and reflecting on the importance and meaning will improve leadership development and leadership performance.

A O R model. Add a footer TREY research 10 Add a footer TREY research 11 Perception and Observation With respect to observation, people selectively attend to events in the environment. One phenomenon that demonstrates this selectivity is called perceptual set. Perceptual sets can influence any of our senses, and they are the tendency or bias to perceive one thing and not another. Example: Think about the last time you started a new class. Did you have any expectations at the outset that might have influenced your experience in the class? If you expect a class to be boring, are you more likely to be uninterested in class? Add a footer TREY research 12 Perception and Observation (cont.) Perceptual sets can influence any of one’s senses. Tendency or bias to perceive one thing and not another. Feelings, needs, prior experiences, and expectations can all trigger a perceptual set Stereotypes about gender, race, and the like represent powerful impediments to learning because they function as filters that distort one’s observations.

Reflection is how humans interpret their observations Perception is inherently an interpretive, or a meaning-making, activity, of which attribution is an important aspect Attributions: Explanations that one develops for the characteristics, behaviors, or actions he or she attends to Add a footer TREY research 15 Perception and Reflection Factors that affect the attribution process: Fundamental attribution error: Tendency to overestimate the dispositional causes of behavior and underestimate the environmental causes when others fail. Self-serving bias: Tendency to make external attributions for one’s own failures and make internal attributions for one’s own successes Actor or observer difference: Refers to the fact that people who are observing an action are much more likely than the actor to make the fundamental attribution error Apart from perception and attribution, reflection also involves higher functions like evaluation and judgment Add a footer TREY research 16 Please take a few minutes to circle all of the attributes you think are descriptive of you.

You have never met this person before but the following characteristics are valid. Read them carefully and try to form an overall impression of the kind of person described. intelligent–skillful–industrious–cold–determined–practical–cautious Add a footer TREY research 18 PART II Now, with that overall impression in mind, select from the following list those traits which are most in accordance with the picture you have formed of the individual. Circle one in each pair:. Add a footer TREY research 19 Perception and Action Research shows that perceptions and biases affect supervisors’ actions toward poorly performing subordinates. Self-fulfilling prophecy is a perceptual variable that can affect actions. Self-fulfilling prophecy: Occurs when one's expectations or predictions play a causal role in bringing about the events he or she predicts. Having expectations about others can subtly influence our actions, and these actions can, in turn, affect the way others behave. Add a footer TREY research 20 Reflection and Leadership Development Reflection offers leaders insights about framing problems differently, viewing situations from multiple perspectives, and understanding subordinates better. Leaders tend to ignore reflection because they lack time or they lack awareness of its value. Leadership development can be enhanced by raising implicit beliefs to conscious awareness in order to aid thoughtful reflection. Intentional reflection may prompt one to see potential benefits in experience not initially considered relevant to leadership. Add a footer TREY research 21 Consider the following statements.

Add a footer TREY research 24 Making the Most of One's Leadership Experiences: Learning to Learn from Experience Research shows a meaningful link between stress and learning. The learning events and developmental experiences that punctuate one’s life are usually—perhaps always—stressful. In stressful situations, there is a tendency to do what’s always been done. What results is one of the great challenges of adult development: the times when people most need to break out of the mold created by past learning patterns are the times when they are most unwilling to do so. Being able to go against the grain of one’s personal historical success requires an unwavering commitment to learning and a relentless willingness to let go of the fear of failure and the unknown. To be successful, learning must continue throughout life, beyond the completion of one’s formal education. Add a footer TREY research 25 Leader Development in College University courses in leadership generally provide a broad survey of leadership research and findings. In these settings, knowledge is often transferred via the lecture method. Additionally, these courses make use of individualized feedback, role playing, and case studies to enhance learning and development. Simulations and games are other methods of leader development. Recent research suggests that development as a leader may most authentically and enduringly occur when the context and design of the experiences afford learns the opportunity to deeply personalize their lessons of experience. Add a footer TREY research 26 Leadership Programs Leadership programs should be multidisciplinary and should cultivate values represented in the broader field. Service learning is used to inculcate values such as social responsibility and the expectation to become engaged in one’s community. Should focus on expected developmental outcomes, with associated assessment and evaluation to determine program effectiveness. Add a footer TREY research 27 Different leader development methods may be used beyond service learning. Some courses or program elements might involve individualized feedback to students in the form of: Personality, intelligence, values, or interest test scores Leadership behavior ratings Case studies and role playing are used as vehicles for leadership discussions Simulations and games are structured activities designed to mirror the challenges or decisions commonly faced in the work environment Add a footer TREY research 28 Leadership training programs are more narrowly focused than Leader Development in university courses and are much shorter. Organizational Settings Oftentimes, these training programs target a specific audience and the set of skills that audience needs to better accomplish their job tasks and responsibilities (e.g., mid-level managers). Increasingly leadership development is occurring in the context of work itself. A great deal of research has demonstrated the positive effects of education and training programs on performance and advancement, but the content of these programs varies substantially.

Some approaches to leadership development emphasize individualized feedback about each person’s strengths and weaknesses based on standardized assessment methods. Others emphasize that leader development in the twenty-first century must occur in more lifelike situations and contexts. Leadership programs for senior executives and C E Os focus on strategic planning, public relations, and interpersonal skills.

To make enduring behavioral changes, leaders must provide positive answers to the following five questions: Is the leader motivated to change these behaviors? Do leaders have plans in place for changing targeted behaviors? Do leaders have opportunities to practice new skills? Are leaders held accountable for changing targeted behaviors?

People who want to avoid the responsibilities of leadership should keep an open mind about the importance and pervasiveness of leadership. Add a footer TREY research 40 Let’s recap everything… One way to add value to one's leadership courses and experiences is by applying the action, observation, and reflection model. To become a better leader, one must seek challenges and try to make the best of any leadership opportunity. Behavior change efforts are most successful if some formal system or process of behavioral change is put into place. Systems include action learning, development planning, informal and formal coaching programs, and mentorships. Leaders can help their followers with behavioral change through coaching or mentoring programs. Add a footer TREY research 41 Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off Final Word they're making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that's the difference. Ax Valeriano
