LEADERSHIP – SIMPLIFIED!


LEADERSHIP – SIMPLIFIED!
  Nancy Allen - President
 
If you could take a fresh look at leadership through the lens of a simplified model that results in greater success, would you be interested?  If you answered a resounding yes, then I want to offer you a snapshot of the VAE MODEL from the book: “THE WORK OF LEADERS”.
 

The VAE MODEL: Vision, Alignment and Execution

Vision: Examples include, Remaining Open, Being Adventurous, and Exploring Implications.

Alignment: Examples include Explaining Rationale, Being Receptive, and Being Encouraging.

Execution: Examples include, Being Driven, Providing a Plan and Addressing Problems.

The Main Benefit of the VAE MODEL is that it lays out an easy to manage framework to guide the leadership process and provides clear explanations of where you might want to focus your professional development and personal efforts.

“Too often leadership books focus exclusively on crafting a vision and obtaining consensus without talking about how to implement the vision. This book nails all three: vision, alignment, and execution.”

—BEN SNYDER, CEO, Systemation

“I worked with the authors for nearly ten years and their powerful model not only helps leaders articulate a clear vision, it drives organizational alignment and flawless execution.”

—KRISTIN NEWHALL, partner, Riverside Company

News About The Royal Baby



News About The Royal Baby

Nancy Allen - Author

Given the News about the Royal Baby, I thought I’d suggest how each DiSC Style may have responded to this News. 

For instance, the Influential DiSC Style may have organized a Block Party, or Cookout designed specifically to celebrate the Royals New Baby.  This party - hearty idea is so perfect for this Style because they love to connect, collaborate and chat enthusiastically with others.

The Dominant DiSC Style, may have considered the News for a moment and then moved on to the next goal they needed to complete. Or, they may have gone to a cocktail party for a “short and sweet” gathering and the celebration would have needed to be quick.

The Conscientous DiSC Style may have made a list of all the great facts about the Royal Baby and the influences he will bring to the world. As long as these facts felt right and accurate this Style may have shared his list with friends, especially if he thought his friends might show appreciation for these factoids.

The Steady DiSC Style may grab a loved one and watch the beautiful sunset, while enjoying their favorite munchies in celebration of the News.  Keeping a celebration plan simple, familiar and comfortable is very satisfying to this Style.

Where do you fit in?  We’d love to hear back from you.
