The Changing “Leadership” Mandate

Industry, government and society across the globe are increasingly challenged by the emergent needs of globalisation, climate change, economy and the demands for greater levels of social justice.

The traditional mandate of leadership – to generate profit and shareholder value – is increasingly having the complexities of sustainable growth added to it.

We live in extraordinary times that present us with unprecedented opportunities to make a positive difference. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary leadership and organisations.

What’s needed is a greater capacity in leadership for innovation, accountability, courage, authenticity, resilience, self-direction and purpose.

The Leadership Collaboration

For organisations seeking to achieve sustainable, results-driven leadership capacity and capability, The Leadership Collaboration is a dynamic team of highly skilled and passionate individuals dedicated to the development of purpose-driven leadership. Our diversity of experience, our common will to deliver on the leadership mandate and our unique approach to the leadership challenge, sets us apart from other leadership engagements.

Our approach to the leadership question is based on the principle that leadership capability is a function of both individual capacity and collective leadership effectiveness. What differentiates leadership in our view, is not so much their philosophy, personality or style, rather its how the leaders interpret and respond, to their surroundings when they are challenged.

The Method

Our response to the leadership question begins in a process of discovery that is grounded and allied to the clients’ organisational purpose and strategic intent. We do this in partnership with our clients, jointly understanding, developing, designing and implementing an agreed client appropriate sustainable leadership solution. Our leadership work integrates four domains of the leadership reality;

+ Self-knowledge and self-management
+ Individual behaviour and competencies
+ Shared values, practices and relationships
+ Collective organisation, structure and strategy

We make use of an appropriate mix of diagnostics and experiential techniques to grow both individual leadership capacity and collective leadership capability in all four of these domains.

The design of our leadership growth processes are based on whole systems thinking and are fundamentally supported, entrenched and sustained through progressive Dynamic Coaching interactions.

The underlying premise in our work is that people behave in terms of their “frames-of-reference”.

The Offer

We work at all levels of leadership and in four circumstances of leadership growth namely;

+ Accelerating Emergent future high potential leaders
+ Preparing leadership to Transition to higher positions of leadership
+ Honing the capacity of Current leadership,
+ Preparing leadership for discontinuous Change.

The Result

The impact of our engagement is an accomplished leadership capacity and capability at the individual and collective levels that is aligned and purposefully driven to achieve sustainable results that are congruent with strategic intent and organisational purpose.
