Creating the Future

The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created--created first in the mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of making them, changes both the maker and the destination.

How do we lead Transformation?

Zebra• Individuals disguised by overlapping

stripes…predator can’t distinguish • Dangerous to be in the back of the herd;

risky to be in the lead• Desire is to blend in• Dangerous to look

different… (weak, young, old)

Lion

• Power, majestic mane

• King, respect demanded• Eats the ‘lion’s share’ before others can

partake• Will kill cubs of previous lion when taking

over a pride.• Young males made to leave pride

Cheetah• Speed up to 70 mph• Not uncommon to hunt and live alone• Kill ratio around 3/10• Unsuccessful hunts means loss of

energy for next hunt

Wild Dog• Not particularly beautiful

in appearance• Perseverance lead to kills…

3 day hunts recorded• Highest kill ratio of

any mammal – 8/10• Very adaptive, goal focused• Leadership on demand• Collective responsibility for

young

TenacityTae kwon Do - Key tenet is Indomitable Spirit (Baekjul Boolgool)…related saying, fall down seven times, get up eight.

Tenacity…in letters to Congress and to his officers, and in his general orders, he had called for perseverance-for “perseverance and spirit”, for “patience and perseverance,” for “unremitting courage and perseverance.” Soon after the victories of Trenton and Princeton, he had written: “A people unused to restraint must be led, they will not be drove.” Without Washington’s leadership and unrelenting perseverance, the revolution almost certainly would have failed. As Nathanael Greene foresaw as the war went on, “He will be the deliverer of his own country.”

David McCullough, 1776

Good To Great• Professional Will – Unwavering

resolve to do whatever must be done to produce the best long term results. Sets the standard; looks into the mirror to appropriate responsibility.

• Personal Humility – Demonstrates a compelling modesty; channels ambition into the organization. Relies on inspired standards. Give credit to others.

Jim Collins 2001

Creating your Pack of Wild Dogs

• Get clear on what you are hunting

• Identify your potential pack of wild dog

• Empower pack to join the hunt

• Launch the hunt• Stay with the prey

until job completed

Alignment

Alignment Leader’s role is to help people

discover themselves. Manipulation is at best useful

in the short term. Focusing on individual’s

“vector” energy is more power than most organizations can imagine.

Exercise• What type of animal

grouping best describes the primary team you currently lead or serve?

• What could you do to move this team to a pack?
