Leadership, Above and Beyond
In this presentation, Chris Douglas will share his insights and explain how to gain the trust and respect of others by staying “Above the Line,” taking responsibility for:
your own results
experiences
relationships
When we have the courage to act in alignment with the truth we:
behave in a manner that leads to positive change
are seen as leaders
position ourselves to influence others
and contribute to a more positive and successful work environment.
When something goes wrong or mistakes are made in organizations, there is a natural tendency for individuals to do whatever they can to avoid taking responsibility and potentially “looking bad” in the eyes of others. Most people:
hope the mistake goes unnoticed
lay blame on other people or factors
justify the failure with excuses.
These “below the line” behaviors rarely, if ever, resolve anything or allow learning from such mistakes to occur. More often than not, these behaviors and attitudes cause a loss of trust and give rise to frustration, negative attitudes and additional counterproductive behaviors.
Come to this SA-ASTD meeting and learn how to get positive results through accountability!
Chris Douglas is a consultant, coach and trainer; and founder of Quest Leadership Consulting. He has provided leadership presentations for a variety of organizations including IBM, Dell Computers, Motorola and the U.S. Government.
