Bruce & Mum

November 2013 Mum had a serious fall.

17 months they said.

Prepare for the worst they said.

Happy birthday Mum!

Who needs a Royal Commission, I say.

Opportunity from the Royal Commission

The sun will still rise in the morning:

You are a group of leaders with passion

Working with some energised people

So what is the opportunity for you?



Successful Leadership in an environment of transformation

• Command and control died years ago with generational change.

• I believe people are experts in themselves.

• Smart leaders already know what the problem is.

• The Royal Commission is the stimulus to make change.

• Great Leaders get to the How and the Who much more quickly and effectively.

Today you will actively see this for yourself.

Successful Leaders lead differently!



Why is Leading so hard?

• Increase alignment to Quality standards

• Reduce use of chemical restraints

• Readiness for more home care packages

• Getting the right “mix” of residents

• IT systems giving you more of what you need

• Letting go of unprofitable programs/services

• Shifting to a Customer centric mindset

• Stewarding Finance out of the back office



Systems Resist Change

When you try to change

something what happens?



Where is your organisation today?

Contented

In denial

Affectionate

Dysfunction

In renewal

No need to do anything different.

Unable to open up to fears

Sorting out stuff & possibly waiting for RC conclusion

Open and willing to take a risk



Leadership during Transformation

Question – how is leadership different from

management? Is it?



Leadership during Transformation

Reflecting on your situation:

• What actually needs to change in your

business?

• How “transformational” is that change?

Mini Coaching Masterclass

I believe the change that matters is the one in you. In the

next 30 minutes I am going to teach you how to coach with

your people.

1. Put phones and laptops away

2. Grab the Do Good Be Great worksheet

3. Grab a pen

4. Find something stable to write on

5. Take a deep breath, hold for 3 seconds, slowly and loudly exhale.



Reasons people follow a leader

Activity 1: Thinking about your career, write down the initials of a leader that has made a significant difference to you?

What three words best describe what this person contributed to your life?



Activity 2 – A to B via C, D, E ….

To close the REALITY GAP you (as a leader) need to ask more questions!

Turn over the sheet, write down one thing you would dearly like to change in your business. The problem must be something you can control and change in 90 days.



Activity 2

Neatly re-write one problem in section A: Current Reality



Activity 2

Thinking ahead, what’s your ideal state? Describe it in terms of the business outcomes you want to see.

Neatly write it in section B: Ideal State



How to get from A to B?

Thinking about how you can move to your ideal state, write down one thing you need to stop doing?



Can you win a war by yourself?

What happens when these don’t show up?

Source: Strengths Based Leadership by Tom Rath



How employees willingly follow you?

Your goal is to get from A to B. Thinking about your leadership style, write down one thing you can you do to:

D. Be more trustworthy

E. Be more compassionate

F. Be more stable and

G. Give hope for a better world



Wait, there’s more!



Rational vs Emotional

Logical

Meaningful



Why it’s so hard to lead



Where is your organisation, again?

Contented

In denial

Affectionate Dysfunction

In renewal

Creeping Desperation



Final thoughts

Being a leader is hard work, it’s messy.

Competing with a hard-wired human system defending a status quo.

What is this nature photo saying?



Reflection

What new insight have you gained from today about yourself or your situation?

How could being more coach-like help people focus on what matters and lift their energy?

How might roles change?

CEO = Coaching Executive Officer



What would CEO-as-coach look like?

Quarter 1 – Uplift X -> Quality Standard 8 Quarter 2 – Better measurement systems

Quarter 4 – Uplift Finance PartneringQuarter 3 – Home care capacity increase



The sector has changed, and, there’s no easy path forward.

What would be your ideal outcome from all this?

How ready are you as a leader for the

challenges ahead?
