The Problem
- Senior corporate leaders are under more
pressure than ever to
lead their teams to create great products and services that match
the customer while also being profitable.
- Leaders must also balance getting these great results with continually
developing and growing their people.
- So leaders find themselves working harder, longer hours under
more stress.
- However leaders are often not getting the
results from their
people or the personal gratification they would expect for this
level of effort.
The Blind Spot
- When faced with less than optimum results, leaders often assume
they lack skills, so they seek more and more
leadership skill training and executive coaching on executive skill development.
- This is an excellent start but it's an incomplete
strategy. Leadership
skills are an important ingredient. In fact, every company
has its own list of executive skills or executive competencies. Leaders
can be overwhelmed with the number of skills to learn. The
myth is that people think leadership success is all about skills. The
truth is that being a successful leader requires more than just
the necessary skills.
Val's Solution
- Val says that leaders need a leadership model that includes skills
but goes beyond skill training.
- Leaders need a "winning formula." A way of using
all the skills they acquire. And in order for the "winning
formula" to be effective, it needs to be:
- simple and easy to remember
- a formula that builds on and summarizes lots of leadership
skills
- a formula that serves as a "guiding
principle" for
the leader in practical everyday interactions.
That "winning formula" is
Val's Leadership Model:
The 3 C's of Leadership™
-
CLARITY
-
COURAGE
-
CONNECTION
|
Val coaches senior leaders to use the 3 C's of
Leadership™ formula
to be a leader at all times -- at work, at home, in the world.
The 3 C's of Leadership™ formula means that leaders
who are truly successful are always a leader. The
real successful senior leaders demonstrate the 3 C's (Clarity,
Courage, and Connection) in all ways in all aspects
of their careers and lives. For example, being a CEO is not
a job. It's
a lifestyle!
Leadership is not something you do. To
be outstanding, it's got to be who you are.
Val coaches senior leaders to successfully develop and integrate
these 3 C's for outstanding results and people development.
