In the “15-year study, interviews with nearly 3,200 leaders from across industries, public and private sectors, non-profits, and organizational levels were included.” Challenging topics are discussed, partly through short anecdotes about uncomfortable situations revolving around these topics in organizations, and how leaders can handle them more deftly, while increasing dignity, justice, and fairness throughout their organizations. These topics include bullying and other unacceptable behaviors, hiring, feedback, and whose story gets told and whose does not. Also, who gets “a seat at the table,” and why, especially if it is because of the organizational title they hold, or what department or function they represent. The author concludes that “if you want to stem the tide of the mass exodus of great talent leaving organizations for less toxic, more joyful environments to work, start today by righting the wrongs you know have long served to send great talent out the doors.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"55-60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He recounts his recent research as a result of travels through Asia, regarding entrepreneurship and leadership in South Korea and Thailand, where he “had the opportunity to meet entrepreneurs and learn how they manage and lead their organizations.” He and a translator “traveled across large cities, small towns, and the countryside, meeting people who founded different types of organizations. We spoke to 30 entrepreneurs in South Korea and 42 entrepreneurs in Thailand who represented a wide range of missions, from for-profit organizations to social enterprises.” He notes that “Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism are all important influences in South Korea, and have helped shape Korean identity and culture.” In Thailand, “Thai entrepreneurs told us that they do not see themselves as leaders. However, they described specific characteristics and behaviors they perceive to be associated with leaders and leadership.” Commonalities of characteristics and behaviors for both sets of entrepreneurs were, in his words, Ethical/virtue Moral character/morality; Benevolent/kindness; Compassionate/compassion; Promote welfare of others/authentic regard for people; Seek the greater good/genuine care for society; Mindful/mindfulness.</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"69-76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is designed to serve as guidance for organizations aiming to not just survive but thrive in this new era, setting themselves apart as leaders within their industry.” She discusses empathy, flexibility, and well-being; within the latter, stating, “Leaders must create an environment where employees feel supported, valued, and understood.” She discusses the principles of high-performing teams, and outlines conscious leadership, which she describes as a “new paradigm.” For teams, “leaders cultivate self-efficacy by encouraging open dialogue and showing receptiveness to new ideas and feedback – they enable the team to believe in itself and the people within it.” The benefits of conscious leadership include enhanced team performance, employee well-being, and organizational resilience. Challenges addressed are burnout prevention, shifting mindsets, resistance to change, and tackling problems head-on. She concludes that the article “underscored the importance of trust, diversity, psychological safety, and the five core capabilities of Conscious Leadership – Togetherness, Growth, Awareness, Resilience, and Purpose.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"61-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He describes how Chief Executive Officers/CEOs operate in a bubble, yet do not always realize that is the case. This “requires adjusting your thinking and behaviors—to create an environment in which people feel comfortable telling you what they’re really thinking and to remove your biases, so you open yourself to the true realities in front of you, rather than trying to confirm to what you think you already know.” He continues that “working on understanding and mitigating your biases is a key aspect of leadership (and human) development. There will be several that will impact the way you think and operate, consciously and subconsciously.” He describes what can happen early in a CEO’s tenure, regarding awareness of relationships with others and what changes occur, and the importance of listening.

She uses examples of the vision articulated by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., President John F. Kennedy, and Eleanor Roosevelt. “By imagining and depicting what is possible,” she writes, “these leaders inspired millions of people and even future generations worldwide to pursue new paths of opportunity—for freedom and justice for all in the case of Dr. King, for science and exploration in the case of President Kennedy, and universalizing human rights across the world in the case of Eleanor Roosevelt.” She uses current-day examples such as Kenya's Kennedy Odede and Shining Hope for Communities (SHOFCO), and Tent Partnership for Refugees, “a global NGO that mobilizes more than 300 companies worldwide to improve the lives and livelihoods of over 36 million refugees forcibly displaced from their home countries.” For corporations, she cites Trane Technologies, which “connects their commitment to the long-term well-being of its employees and communities. Furthermore, the company presents itself as a unique opportunity for investors, by describing its long-term approach to growth for the company and the planet.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"21-27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So be grateful, make the most of it, leave it better than you found it, let others have the credit, and make sure they are having fun and doing things that are meaningful to them.” And things must be put into perspective: “Leadership is about the pursuit and not the destination. I don’t think of myself less as a leader per se. Rather, I think of myself as a <i>student</i> of leadership, always learning and growing, always trying to get better at the craft, and always trying to learn from others and to do good for others as a result.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"14-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They describe what the BPR is, how it is used, and “how a typical BPR looks and works.” While the system, and the BPR itself, is probably best known through the two major companies led by Mulally, the authors write that “the BPR approach and structure works in any setting and has been integral to our own business since the beginning. We started as a team of two and have grown to include two more team members. The BPR helps our small team stay on track, focused on our mission, aligned with our values and operating principles, and reinforces our culture.” In the conclusion, they note that “by encouraging open communication, shared objectives, and strong leadership, BPR cultivates a culture of respect where everyone feels valued, empowered, and motivated to contribute to success.”</p>","PeriodicalId":100872,"journal":{"name":"Leader to Leader","volume":"2024 114","pages":"41-47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
