WORKSHOP SYNOPSIS
Develop your “human side” we often tell people, but we sometimes forget to tell them why and how. We need the human side more than ever because the pace of change in 21st century organisations is faster than it has ever been, but leaders are still using logical, linear mindsets meant for the slower paced 20th century. We live in a quantum world where discontinuous change is characterised by Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity (VUCA) and traditional skills of careful analysis and planning alone no longer deliver the results they once did. There has never been more need for developing a “human side” that is not about sentiment but a driver of business success. There has never more need for a new leadership and HR paradigm. There has never been a better time to: “Lead with your Heart”, there has never been a better time to “Lead with Love”.
The word “Love” is not a word often mentioned in oganisational literature, but with the rise of emotional openness and with more emphasis on vulnerability, love is now more easily talked about as a leadership quality. Once we focus its meaning beyond romantic connotations, “love” can be seen to be very relevant to the ledership domain. Indeed love which is characterised by thinking of others, giving exceptional service, helping out a colleague, caring about someone’s personal problems, giving tough feedback because you think a colleague is not doing their best, can all be seen as having their root in the concept of love. When linked with Servant leadership there is even more reason to link love and leadership. Servant leadership is a philosophy that has been around for at least 20 years and its essence is all about love. Now is a time in organisational life and leadership thinking to be comfortable with using the terms love and service more openly.
In this unique workshop participants will be introduced to the definition of love as it relates to servant leadership, and understand the benefits to the bottom line in terms of satisfied employees and staff retainment statistics. Participants will learn about love’s importance when driving a pyschologically healthy climate, and when encouraging bonding and camaradarie at work to ensure that goals are met.
