Big Bold Goals Leadership Experience: 1/2 Day
““Really powerful stuff. It made organising the whole staff day at St Hilda’s College, University of Oxford so worthwhile. So much appreciation for the stories, anecdotes, and wonderful team exercises”
”
What’s involved?
A half-day session of experiential blended learning for leaders and staff who have ambitious plans to succeed in today’s world of fast change and continuous innovation. Leaders who are looking to increase the resilience, engagement, and focus of their teams, to manage the pressure and stress on everyday performance, and improve productivity.
If you’re inspired to make change, determined to re-think the meaning of leadership, and committed to empowering your teams - then we can help.
How?
The Big Bold Goals Experience combines three core components in a series of short keynote talks to set the scene, which are then followed by participant interactive sessions to reinforce the messaging from each talk.
Session 1
This session involves deep listening. Deep listening is a tool designed with a very specific purpose to create a fresh story of the future between two or more people. It challenges you to ask questions that are anchored in feelings, such as ‘What would make you proud if we could achieve it together?’
The activity involves answering the question one at a time and sharing answers while the other person just listens. They then repeat back what they have heard and check if they have heard correctly. Invariably new ideas, edits, and additional explanations arise.
Where the Magic Happens – this is where you discover what you share in common. It is much easier to build on aligned and shared beliefs to create something that doesn’t yet exist, new goals.
Developing a Big Bold Mindset is priceless - you create a shared goal together to shape the future of where you are going as a team.
Session 2
The next session involves ‘being more resilient’. Leaders who work in high-trust workplaces show vulnerability and ask for help from colleagues rather than demand it.
In this session, you learn about being vulnerable and how to build higher levels of trust amongst your teams where communication is open and honest. A culture of trust enables teams to collaborate effectively, be open to new ideas, embrace change, and contribute innovative solutions to challenges.
Session 3
The final session is about ‘putting people first’. Leadership is not a title, it’s a mindset. It’s about how you look after those around you and about how you show up. The Big Bold Mindset is about igniting the passion in people around you.
This session involves a Superpower activity. Have your team ever had conversations to create a shared understanding of each person’s unique brilliance? In this activity, you will ask colleagues what they see as your unique capability and receive personal feedback. By looking for a common theme in these comments, a golden thread will pull it together to discover your Superpower.
This task will help you to unleash the strengths of your team, and if you put people first results will follow!
