How the Turn the Ship Around Workshop Works
A step-by-step breakdown of the workshop process
1Introduction
In this opening segment, participants are introduced to the leader-leader model and its core pillars: Control, Competence, and Clarity. The purpose of the workshop is also shared, emphasizing the goal of decentralizing leadership.
2Setting the Intent
Participants reflect on their current responsibilities and rewrite them as 'intent' statements, promoting a shift from a permission-based mindset to one of ownership. They share these intents with the group to foster accountability.
3Role-Playing Scenarios
In small teams, participants engage in role-playing exercises based on realistic scenarios that typically centralize leadership. This activity encourages them to apply the leader-leader principles, focusing on initiative and decision-making without waiting for permission.
