Listening Habits that Cost You Power
Premature dismissal of a subject as uninteresting
Faking that you’re listening Assuming you know what is being
said Listening for validation of your ideas

Listening Habits that Cost You Power
Listening only for facts Letting emotion laden words arouse
personal antagonism Interrupting others when they are
speaking

“The more attentively you listenthe freer people become
in offering their ideas and the more we learn that our point of view isn’t always complete, or even accurate”

you have to say with eye contact

Communications Mastering Your Emotions
If you want to communicate support and encouragement rather than frustration and criticism…try Deep abdominal breaths Relaxed shoulders and face muscles
This can increase the likeliness that what you say will be heard and absorbed without defensiveness

LEADERSHIP IS NOT SOMETHING YOU
DO TO PEOPLE, IT’S SOMETHING YOU DO WITH PEOPLE
Cultivating Collective Responsibility
![Page 67: Leader as Coach, Coach as Leader Presented by Rich Russakoff for YEO Central America – November, 2003 Bottom Line Consultants](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e155503460f94afee15/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Cultivating Collective Responsibility
No one person should expect – or pretend – to have all the answers
Individual leaders can’t effectively process all of the ideas, information, and options that exist
Good ideas can come from anyone, anywhere
![Page 68: Leader as Coach, Coach as Leader Presented by Rich Russakoff for YEO Central America – November, 2003 Bottom Line Consultants](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e155503460f94afee15/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Cultivating Collective Responsibility
The best leaders make themselves replaceable by building a culture of leadership not personality
Everyone’s accountable all of the time
![Page 69: Leader as Coach, Coach as Leader Presented by Rich Russakoff for YEO Central America – November, 2003 Bottom Line Consultants](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e155503460f94afee15/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Collective Responsibility
Create a shared sense of purpose Make goals team goals Make each member responsible for
the teams results Share the glory, accept the blame

Collective Responsibility Plateau Busting
Consistency Focus on goals and execution
![Page 71: Leader as Coach, Coach as Leader Presented by Rich Russakoff for YEO Central America – November, 2003 Bottom Line Consultants](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e155503460f94afee15/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Lead with your Mission
Mission–a compelling sense of purpose: Why are you in business? What differentiates you from
competition? How do you improve your customer’s
life?

Collective Responsibility Fun
If work is fun, it always gets done Fun coaches don’t have to recruit Celebrate bowling parties, fire t-
shirts hats SW Law Suit

Character
People buy into the leader, then the vision
Stand up to bullies

Leaders Who Have Shown Great Character - Nelson Mandela
Speaks in a constructive and inclusive manner
Withstood personal hardship and overrode partisanship
Asked his own jailer to sit in the first row at his inauguration
Embodies human qualities that make people feel better about human species

Jack Welch
Great Leaders: Allocate resources
based upon return, not on need
Change before they have to
Face reality as it is, not as they want it to be
