Kouzes/Posner 1st Law of Leadership
If you don’t believe the messenger then you won’t believe the message
Leadership is
a reciprocal relationship
Credibility is
the foundation of leadership
Kouzes/Posner 2nd Law of Leadership:
Do what you say you will do
Never ask someone to do something you would be unwilling to do yourself
Who are you?
People want to know you and why they ought to be following you
Who you are is not simply what you do and your titles
Values
drive commitment
You need internal guidance to
navigate the turbulence
To act with integrity:
you must first see clearly
Clarity of values give you
the confidence to make decisions
Clarity of personal values has most impact on:
employees’ feelings about their work
If your values don’t align with the organization:
you will be acting every day you come to work and that will show through to your constituents
Conformity produces:
compliance, not commitment
Unity is:
forged not forced
Listen to others to:
understand their values and aspirations
People won’t fully commit if:
they don’t sense a good fit to who they are and what they believe
