Two Questions to Help You Change Your Leadership Style

]]>

Do you want to change your leadership style? Perhaps you’ve discovered something in particular that you want to do, or do differently.


And this, of course, is the problem. You want to change something you do, but the folks in the office just aren’t expecting you to change anything. They don’t WANT you to change anything.


Also, some people around you may be suspicious or cynical. Not all of them, maybe, but enough to make it tricky to change.


So no matter how enthusiastic or motivated you might be to make a change, all of the ‘noise’ around you makes you reluctant, or resistant, to change. The pain of change seems worse than the gain of change.


So you stop even thinking about change. And soon you’re as cynical and suspicious as all the rest. And nothing ever changes.


If this sluggish feeling is familiar to you, then what you’re experiencing is the heavy inertia of ‘the way things work round here’. It’s the power of the status quo to weigh heavy on you and stop you from changing anything.


How can you start the change process? What you urgently need to do is find ways over or round the inertia. And the questions to ask are these:


1. When is it easier to change my leadership style?

2. What

Having a positive attitude is extremely important when you are pursuing a goal that you may have or when you are trying to make significant changes in your life.  But,  there are many people that claim just having a positive or optimistic outlook will change everything about your life.  Is this really true or do you need more than just a positive mind frame?

Well,  for starters,  it is absolutely necessary to have a good outlook on yourself and your abilities to make significant changes in your life.  It is the basis of your success at whatever it is that you choose to do.  But,  it is not the end all solution to all of your problems.  You need to also take actions that are congruent to what it is that you want as well.  You cannot have thought without action and expect to get the results that you really want.

DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ADD ACTION TO YOUR LIFE…

You must make your life full of actions that will benefit you and not just thoughts.  Thinking alone does not produce a physical result.  You cannot just think yourself thin or wealthy.  You have to use those thoughts as your starting point and then develop a course or a plan that will lead you to the results that you would like to achieve or to see happen.

Think positive as much as you can but,  do not be afraid to get out there and start making your life one that is full of action as well!

Can Online Change Management Training Benefit a Company?

By: Project Management
Posted: Aug 17, 2010

The internet has certainly increased the way in which people approach education. In the past, the only way to attend a formal course of study was to physically visit a particular learning center. While this process has certainly not disappeared, it is now joined by various alternative processes for learning. One such method is online distance learning and for many companies, the ability to enroll employees in online change management training is a huge help.

Really, any process that can help expand the knowledge base and skills of the employees can prove quite helpful. This would be true not only of change management training but also of p3o training and business analysis training. Most companies, however, will be centering on change management training since it is so vital to the future success of a company. A company that does not have adaptable or flexible employees is doomed to suffer in a changing environment. That is why effective training programs

Do you fear remaining trapped in the same boring job and facing the same grind over and over again? Do you feel like your expectations and your job are at different wavelengths? Is your boss a pain? Are you stressed out at work?

 

If your answer to any of these questions is “yes” then you surely need a change. But probably, you are not very sure which way to go. You may be ridden with serious doubts about your future career prospects. Nothing new there. Like you, thousands of others are also wondering what to do with their lives; unlike you, a few of them have chosen to do something about it.

 

There are cost effective ways to explore your career possibilities, extend your productivity and reach a state where you are content with your personal and professional achievement. You can land your dream job, earn the salary you yearn for and become the kind of professional you want to. In short, it may be time for a career assessment test!

 

Tasks and education, training and required experience are only a few of the issues that career assessment involves. A career assessment test functions as an effective tool or symbolically speaking “a mirror” of what

Three great seminars that key employees should take these days are the p3o training , business analysis training and change management training . Not all courses are the same. They must be delivered by experienced educators who have lived and worked what they are teaching.

Change management training imparts skills required to deal with a feared aspect of business, which is termed change. Change is not only dreaded by employees but by all management as well. That fear must be overcome in order for the business to thrive and succeed. Every skill needed to prepare, implement and counter the opposition to change, which surely will occur, are part of the seminars.

On the other hand, change is not necessarily good either. If the change will upset and detract from the success of the business, it must be altered or abandoned. All these skills delivered in a hands-on manner are part of the seminars we offer.

Our staff are ready to show you how your company can move ahead of the competition by having trained management in up to date methods

Training the employees at the office can be a challenging task. Something as complicated as P3O training is not exactly easy which is the reason why a delicate hand needs to be employed to deliver results. Those companies looking to instill the proper business analysis training or change management training should look towards hiring responsible professionals to perform needed tasks. A common error that companies make is they will try to perform their own training even when such duties may be outside their league. Don’t make such a mistake if you are managing a company. Stick with bringing in experienced trainers and professionals.

There are services that can outsource such training professionals. The training that they can provide can be as ‘to the point’ or as expansive as a company wishes. In other words, the subject of change management training can be performed in a two hour workshop or it can be covered in depth over the course of a week long session. The duration and expansiveness management selects should be based on company needs. Regardless of the duration, however, you need reliable professionals to perform the training. If not then the quality of the training may falter. That

I am going to ask you to something very weird right now. First of all, I want you to listen to your thoughts. Now tell me, what thoughts fill your head? Would you label them as positive, or negative?

Now let’s say you are walking down the street with these thoughts. Do you think anyone who would meet you would be able to tell you what’s on your mind?

The answer to number one is up to you. But, the answer number two can be pretty generic. Although people will not be able to tell you exactly what you think, they will more or less have an idea of how you are feeling.

Here’s another question. When you enter a party filled with friends, do they all fall silent as if something terrible had happened? Or does everybody there perk up as if waiting for something exciting to happen?

You know what? The answer to all these depends on your frame of mind.

Thoughts are very powerful. They affect your general attitude. The attitude you carry reflects on your appearance, too – unless, of course, you are a great actor.

And it doesn’t end there. Your attitude can also affect people around you.

The type of attitude you carry depends on you. It can be either positive or negative.

Situational Leadership Theory In Change Management – Different Strokes For Different Folks

Given the catastrophic 70% failure rate of all change management initiatives, the quality of leadership exercised is clearly a significant component in reducing this risk.

In essence, situational leadership theory emphasises 2 areas:

(1) “Different strokes for different folks” – different leadership styles are applicable to different situations

(2) “Cometh the hour cometh the man” – leadership extends potentially to just about everyone in an organisation – at some time

Dr Paul Hersey, who is closely associated with the development of situational leadership theory, suggested in a fairly recent presentation that: “… a situational leader is anyone, anywhere who recognises that influencing behaviour is not an event but a process. The process entails assessing followers’ performance in relation to what the leader wants to accomplish and providing the appropriate amounts of guidance and support.”

According to change management guru John Kotter “…today’s organizations need heroes at every level. To truly succeed in a turbulent world, more than half the

Continuing from Part 1, let us see a few more career change mistakes that can disrupt the most successful professional lives when made without giving the following a thought:

Possibilities: Career change is a very critical phase in anyone’s career and hence it is imperative that one considers all possibilities and consequences of the same. Researching all such possibilities would be a good practice before making the switch. This research can be done online, by talking to your network and also by reading job profiles and news related to the new career. This will give you an insight into various careers that are available for you and will help you to make a more informed decision regarding your career change.

Personal parameters: Opting for a career change without self reflection and without considering personal likes and dislikes could be suicidal for any career. Assessing one’s own interests, skills and values is highly critical to any career change. Such an analysis is easy to do and all one needs is to make a list of things that one loves to do- in a job, at home or even in hobbies and another list of things that you will never want to do again. While deciding on a career changes, these lists can be used to perform a SWOT (Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats) and can have a great bearing on a conceived career
