Management Strategies
 You must be able to present the
strategy clearly to all audiences; it
should contain a clear vision followed by
a set of clear time bound actions in
order to achieve consistent success.
 The more diverse your workforce, the
more you are going to have to develop
your management skills.
Management Strategies
 Strategy One - Ensure that you
actually are the manager
This might sound stupid, however
having the title of manager
invariably means very little. Do
you know what your “power to
accountability ratio” is?
Management Strategies
 Strategy Two - Know what you are
expected to deliver and know how to
measure it
Seek clear objectives. Keeping the main
objectives constantly in mind is essential
even if they evolve or change a bit over
time.
Be very clear in stating the key objectives
to the people who report into you.
Your measurement sources should be
reliable regarding the deliverable
elements.
Management Strategies
 Strategy three - Have a clear strategy
especially if managing a diverse workforce
 Should be able to identify the key actions that the
department is going to pursue. This shows clarity.
The STAR process might help in formulating a basic
strategic approach.
 Simple. Will everyone understand it and buy into it?
 Thought through. Does it identify the steps that
will need to be implemented in order to mobilise the
plan.
 Achievable. If you don’t believe it can be done then
no one will.
 Risk assessed. If you haven’t thought about the
risks and challenges then go away and think again.
Very little in management is a dead certainty.

Leadership vs. Management
Effective leadership involves setting a tone,
a focus, and a direction for an
organization, its members, and other
stakeholders.
In contrast, effective management involves
executing against the direction and tone
set by the leadership.
Individuals are not either leaders or
managers, but a mixture of leadership
and management, and the exact mix
depends upon the situation, the role and
the person.
As a culture, we have outdated
notions of leadership:
Just about everything we were taught
about traditional management
prevents us from being effective
leaders.
Just about every popular notion
about leadership is a myth
Our first challenge is
to rid ourselves of
these
outdated traditions
and myths
Myth: The ideal organization is
orderly and stable, and can and
should run like clock work
Fact:
The best leadership achievements
come from challenging the
process, changing things, shaking
up the organization
Myth: The management
techniques and behavior are
theoretical and bookish. They
cannot be practiced in real life.
Fact:
The best management
achievements come from
following the basics and making
them a second nature.
Myth: Leader as “renegade” who
magnetizes a band of followers
with courageous acts
Fact:
Leaders attract constituents not
because of their willful defiance, but
because the leader has a deep faith in
the human capacity to adapt and grow
Myth: Good managers focus on
the short term.
Fact:
Effective leaders have a long term
future orientation
Myth: Leaders are visionaries with
Prophet-like powers
Fact:
Leaders must have a vision, a
sense of direction, but not psychic
foresight. It can be their original
thinking or someone else’s.
Myth: Leaders ought to be cool,
aloof and analytical; they should
separate emotions from work
Fact:
When real life leaders discuss what they
are proudest of in their own careers they
describe feelings of inspiration, passion,
elation, intensity, challenge, caring and
kindness, even love
Myth: Leaders have the special
gift of Charisma!
Fact:
Leaders’ dynamism comes from a
strong belief in a purpose and a
willingness to express that conviction
Myth: The job of management is
primarily one of control: of
resources including time, money
materials and people.
Fact:
The more leaders control others, the
less likely it is that people will excel, the
less they’ll be trusted. Leaders don’t
command and control; they support and
serve.
Myth: It’s lonely at the top
Fact:
The most effective leaders are
involved and in touch with those
they lead. They care deeply
about them, and often refer to
them as family.
Myth: Leaders are superior –
those on top are automatically
leaders.
Fact:
Leadership isn’t a place: it’s a
process. It involves skills and
abilities useful in the executive suite
and on the front line.
Myth: Leaders are born, not made.
Fact:
Leadership is not in a gene; it is an
observable, learnable set of practices.
The belief that leadership can’t be
learned is a powerful deterrent to
leadership development.
Five Fundamental Practices
of Exemplary Leaders
 Model The Way
 Inspire A Shared Vision
 Challenge The Process
 Enable Others To Act
 Encourage The Heart
The Leadership Challenge by Kouzes and Posner
Two hardest areas also bring the greatest results:
Encouragement
Credibility
Why do you think giving
encouragement is so hard?
Encouraging the Heart
 Set clear standards – people need to know what’s expected of them
 Expect the best – self-fulfilling prophesy
 Pay attention – tune in
 Personalize recognition -- individualized
 Tell the story – share your successes
 Celebrate together – have fun
 Set the example – leaders go first
When people perceive their immediate
manager as credible they’re more
likely to: Be proud to tell others they're part of your organization
 Feel a strong sense of team spirit
 Feel attached and committed to your organization
 See their own values as consistent with those of your organization
 Have a sense of ownership of the organization
When people perceive their
immediate managers to have low
credibility they're more likely to:
Produce only if they’re watched carefully
Be motivated primarily by money
Say good things about the organization
publicly but criticize privately
Consider looking for another job if the
organization experiences trouble
Feel unsupported and criticized
What is credibility?
Credible leaders practice what
they preach
They walk the talk
Their actions are consistent with
their words
They keep their promises
They do what they say they will
do
From DWYSYWD
to DWWSWWD
From:
DWYSYWD = Do what you say you
will do
To:
DWWSWWD = Do what we say we
will do
Two Parts to Saying and Doing
 You have to know how to say it
In a way people can hear it
In a way they can add to it, question it, express
concerns, get clarification, help shape it
See concerns as essential info
Have the Crucial Conversations to create a
comprehensive shared pool of information
 You have to be able to do it
Implement it – if you say you’re going to do it, do it
Need to get it done – Doesn’t have to be perfect –
can be mid-course adjustments
The “say we do” process
Clarify your own and others beliefs
and values – why are we doing this
– to what end?
Unify your staff around shared
values – is this what we’re all trying
to accomplish?
Intensify their commitment to
shared values by living the values
daily – model it
You’re always communicating
whether you realize it or not
When it comes to sending a
message throughout the building
NOTHING communicates more
clearly than what leaders DO

Thinking
 Defined role-playing, usually to control ego
defence
 The second value is that of attention
directing.
 A very convenient way of asking someone
(including yourself) to switch gears.
 Allows to go somewhat beyond our present
state of knowledge because the theoretical
demands of self-organizing systems justify
such extrapolation.
 Help establishing the rule of the game.

hat is concerned with objective facts and figures.

  • 7. Management Strategies  You must be able to present the strategy clearly to all audiences; it should contain a clear vision followed by a set of clear time bound actions in order to achieve consistent success.  The more diverse your workforce, the more you are going to have to develop your management skills.
  • 8. Management Strategies  Strategy One - Ensure that you actually are the manager This might sound stupid, however having the title of manager invariably means very little. Do you know what your “power to accountability ratio” is?
  • 9. Management Strategies  Strategy Two - Know what you are expected to deliver and know how to measure it Seek clear objectives. Keeping the main objectives constantly in mind is essential even if they evolve or change a bit over time. Be very clear in stating the key objectives to the people who report into you. Your measurement sources should be reliable regarding the deliverable elements.
  • 10. Management Strategies  Strategy three - Have a clear strategy especially if managing a diverse workforce  Should be able to identify the key actions that the department is going to pursue. This shows clarity. The STAR process might help in formulating a basic strategic approach.  Simple. Will everyone understand it and buy into it?  Thought through. Does it identify the steps that will need to be implemented in order to mobilise the plan.  Achievable. If you don’t believe it can be done then no one will.  Risk assessed.

  • 16. Leadership vs. Management Effective leadership involves setting a tone, a focus, and a direction for an organization, its members, and other stakeholders. In contrast, effective management involves executing against the direction and tone set by the leadership. Individuals are not either leaders or managers, but a mixture of leadership and management, and the exact mix depends upon the situation, the role and the person.
  • 17. As a culture, we have outdated notions of leadership: Just about everything we were taught about traditional management prevents us from being effective leaders. Just about every popular notion about leadership is a myth
  • 18. Our first challenge is to rid ourselves of these outdated traditions and myths
  • 19. Myth: The ideal organization is orderly and stable, and can and should run like clock work Fact: The best leadership achievements come from challenging the process, changing things, shaking up the organization
  • 20. Myth: The management techniques and behavior are theoretical and bookish. They cannot be practiced in real life. Fact: The best management achievements come from following the basics and making them a second nature.
  • 21. Myth: Leader as “renegade” who magnetizes a band of followers with courageous acts Fact: Leaders attract constituents not because of their willful defiance, but because the leader has a deep faith in the human capacity to adapt and grow
  • 22. Myth: Good managers focus on the short term. Fact: Effective leaders have a long term future orientation
  • 23. Myth: Leaders are visionaries with Prophet-like powers Fact: Leaders must have a vision, a sense of direction, but not psychic foresight. It can be their original thinking or someone else’s.
  • 24. Myth: Leaders ought to be cool, aloof and analytical; they should separate emotions from work Fact: When real life leaders discuss what they are proudest of in their own careers they describe feelings of inspiration, passion, elation, intensity, challenge, caring and kindness, even love
  • 25. Myth: Leaders have the special gift of Charisma! Fact: Leaders’ dynamism comes from a strong belief in a purpose and a willingness to express that conviction
  • 26. Myth: The job of management is primarily one of control: of resources including time, money materials and people. Fact: The more leaders control others, the less likely it is that people will excel, the less they’ll be trusted. Leaders don’t command and control; they support and serve.
  • 27. Myth: It’s lonely at the top Fact: The most effective leaders are involved and in touch with those they lead. They care deeply about them, and often refer to them as family.
  • 28. Myth: Leaders are superior – those on top are automatically leaders. Fact: Leadership isn’t a place: it’s a process. It involves skills and abilities useful in the executive suite and on the front line.
  • 29. Myth: Leaders are born, not made. Fact: Leadership is not in a gene; it is an observable, learnable set of practices. The belief that leadership can’t be learned is a powerful deterrent to leadership development.
  • 30. Five Fundamental Practices of Exemplary Leaders  Model The Way  Inspire A Shared Vision  Challenge The Process  Enable Others To Act  Encourage The Heart The Leadership Challenge by Kouzes and Posner Two hardest areas also bring the greatest results: Encouragement Credibility
  • 31. Why do you think giving encouragement is so hard?
  • 32. Encouraging the Heart  Set clear standards – people need to know what’s expected of them  Expect the best – self-fulfilling prophesy  Pay attention – tune in  Personalize recognition -- individualized  Tell the story – share your successes  Celebrate together – have fun  Set the example – leaders go first
  • 33. When people perceive their immediate manager as credible they’re more likely to: Be proud to tell others they're part of your organization  Feel a strong sense of team spirit  Feel attached and committed to your organization  See their own values as consistent with those of your organization  Have a sense of ownership of the organization
  • 34. When people perceive their immediate managers to have low credibility they're more likely to: Produce only if they’re watched carefully Be motivated primarily by money Say good things about the organization publicly but criticize privately Consider looking for another job if the organization experiences trouble Feel unsupported and criticized
  • 35. What is credibility? Credible leaders practice what they preach They walk the talk Their actions are consistent with their words They keep their promises They do what they say they will do
  • 36. From DWYSYWD to DWWSWWD From: DWYSYWD = Do what you say you will do To: DWWSWWD = Do what we say we will do
  • 37. Two Parts to Saying and Doing  You have to know how to say it In a way people can hear it In a way they can add to it, question it, express concerns, get clarification, help shape it See concerns as essential info Have the Crucial Conversations to create a comprehensive shared pool of information  You have to be able to do it Implement it – if you say you’re going to do it, do it Need to get it done – Doesn’t have to be perfect – can be mid-course adjustments
  • 38. The “say we do” process Clarify your own and others beliefs and values – why are we doing this – to what end? Unify your staff around shared values – is this what we’re all trying to accomplish? Intensify their commitment to shared values by living the values daily – model it
  • 39. You’re always communicating whether you realize it or not When it comes to sending a message throughout the building NOTHING communicates more clearly than what leaders DO
  • 40. Leadership Pyramid from Stephen Covey Teaching Mentoring Modeling Hearing Feeling Seeing Leading by Example, Franklin Covey Co., 1998 Credibility Encouragement
  • 41. Six Domains of Leadership  Personal leadership  Relational leadership  Contextual leadership  Inspirational leadership  Supportive leadership  Ethical leadership

  • 46. The Purpose of Six Hat Thinking  Defined role-playing, usually to control ego defence  The second value is that of attention directing.  A very convenient way of asking someone (including yourself) to switch gears.  Allows to go somewhat beyond our present state of knowledge because the theoretical demands of self-organizing systems justify such extrapolation.  Help establishing the rule of the game.
  • 47. Six Hats Six Colors  White hat: White is neutral and objective. The white hat is concerned with objective facts and figures.  Red hat: Red suggests anger (seeing red), rage and emotions.

Notas del editor

  1. The foundation of leadership is modeling. Modeling is what we really are, not what we say we are. Character: Honest, trustworthy, responsible etc Competent: Knowledge, experience, wisdom, skills, talents Our actions speak louder than words. Modeling is seen. Mentoring- building a relationship. Concern and caring Mentoring is felt Teaching Teaching helps others become independent of us. Teaching is heard. People must see and feel before they will hear. Example: State survey plans of correction. Reoccurring deficiencies. Lack of sustain compliance. Caution! If there are inconsistencies between what an employee hears, sees and feels from leadership, trust is eroded. When a relationship of trust is broken, it is very hard to put back together.
  2. Phone calls - everyone hates 'cold calls' but they are inevitable. Develop a script and "just do it!" Think of it as research, not telemarketing. Letters or newsletter - as an alternative to phone calls. You can always follow up with a call. Join a professional society or civic organization - and become active. Get out and meet people, interact, volunteer. Identify those organizations whose members are likely to be hiring managers of the companies you are interested in (don't neglect organizations like the Jaycees, Boys & Girls Clubs or museum boards - they're usually loaded with corporate/local 'movers & shakers.') Internet newsgroups - answer questions, join discussions Consultants and consultants' networks - consultants often know of companies' technical needs. Technical conferences, workshops- attend and mingle, or better yet, present a paper Someone at a company you'd like to work for - try and get an introduction through one of your existing contacts or call them yourself referencing an article about them or a paper they wrote. Recruiters, headhunters - maintain a good working relationship with recruiters when they call you asking for leads and they will be more likely to help you when you need a lead.
  3. In situations of crisis and potential conflict always remember: STAR   We need to:STOP(Don’t panic – don’t react!) THINK(gather information) ANALYZE (using gathered information decide how you can best empathize with this person) RESPOND (respectfully communicate your understanding of the situation and what would work for you)   When conflict does arise will you always have time to think about the above process and work it through step by step? NO! The key is to begin to incorporate the principles and practice them on a regular basis – let them become a part of who you naturally are. When you are in a conflict situation you can always tell yourself to STOP! This will help you to not react quickly and will give you a few mental seconds to begin processing the situation in a more controlled way. Best growth and learning occur when conflict is handled honestly and constructively!   There are a variety of conflict management strategies that may be used most appropriately in different situations.  
  4. 5 Conflict Resolution Strategies    AVOIDWait / See  FORCEWin / Lose  ACCOMMODATE Lose / Win  COMPROMISELose / Lose  COLLABORATEWin / Win    AVOID When the issues are trivial, or circumstances dictate that a solution is better left until later. Maybe until you or the other people have calmed down, or reinforcements have arrived. Perhaps it is better to avoid decision making when you are so tired / stressed that your judgment may not be sound When moral or safety issues are involved. Not to be used just because you are afraid to deal with conflict! Issues will only build up and become more complicated.    FORCE This is when you force the issue to get the decision you want, usually for safety or ethical/ moral/legal issues. As the leader you are ultimately responsible for decision-making. If you have strong biblical principles for your decision on any of these issues you must stand firm. Share your reasons. Sometimes it is a good strategic move to ask the group to go away and think about the decision, pray and then meet again to make the decision. That way you may have the team share in the decision rather than imposing your view upon them. Remember, you are not omnipotent—they may come back with a better idea or solution ! Someone always looses and somebody may want to even the score.    ACCOMMODATE There are times when it is most appropriate to “give in,” in a conflict situation. This can occur when for one reason or another you were wrong (possibly you did not have all of the information), or when the other person has legitimate authority (e.g., the conference president). In such circumstances, particularly if you feel strongly about the situation, calmly state your reasons for disagreeing and then “accommodate” with dignity. Again, someone loses—you. You need to decide if it is worth it.    COMPROMISE This approach is used when attempted collaboration has been unsuccessful When the relationship or the issue is important enough to not give it up altogether When both sides strongly believe they are correct and you want each to get nearer their goal, so you come to an agreement by mutual concessions.    COLLABORATE This is the desired goal in all conflict situations Put our frustration aside, look at the situation Discuss our different viewpoints calmly and professionally Work together so that we are both happy with the final outcome Work on reframing the conflict, think laterally and come to agreement Negotiate. What are the points you can concede in order to obtain agreement for what is most important. Both sides give and take some until both are satisfied.  
  5. The Five Steps in Resolving Conflicts   1. Pray about the Problem Together Do this humbly not as a way to bring judgment down on the other person! Commit to trying to find a solution, and then define the conflict as a mutual problem. In the majority of conflict situations, neither side is totally wrong or totally right. In most cases there are things to sort out on both sides. So try to perceive the situation as a mutual problem not a win / lose struggle.   2.Clarify the Issues—Focus on the Needs And Goals Reframe the situation with the questions: What do we need to do to get out of this situation? What are our goals? What are the concerns? Don’t be dragged back into recriminations or old gossip that is quite destructive.   3. Understand Each Other’s Perspective. Treat the other person and their viewpoint with respect. Take the time to give each other time to state a viewpoint (active listening without interruption). Once we really understand the other person’s viewpoint it is much easier to want to come to an agreement. Use specific communication—use “I” words instead of “you” words. (Instead of “You make me so mad when you do that!,” I might say, “I feel so angry when something is said to me without considering my perception in the situation”)   4. Break the Conflict into Small Steps If the conflict is serious it may not be possible to sort all of the problems out at one time. Identify the options and develop the ones that give everyone more of what they want. Try to agree to deal with one issue at first, and then you can move on to the next.   5. Give and Take. Take a long-term view. Support what is legitimate and fair—resist greed and injustice. “Give” in areas that are high value to others and easy for you to give. Remember that you cannot expect to have everything go your way.
