4 Our focus for today. Effective Communication Working Together Developing and Nourishing Relationships
5 Finding the Right Tools!
6 Myers-Briggs Temperament Test Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is just one of many frequently used tools utilized for leaders. This test provides information about your preferred style of behaving and thinking.
7 Let s take the test.
8 What is Your Type?
9 What Does This Mean For You? Extroversion versus Introversion Sensing versus Intuition Thinking versus Feeling Judging versus Perceiving
10
11 Let s See Who You Are and Who is Here Today:
12 Manager Profiles What types make the best leaders or managers? All Types occupy manager positions, but understanding your strengths and weaknesses can help you become more effective in your job!
13 Frequency of Types in Managers A study of 26,477 managers at the Center For Creative Leadership, indicated the following frequencies for people in leadership positions. ISTJ 18.2% ESTJ 16% ENTJ 13.1 % INTJ 10.5%
14 Clearly, there are many Thinking and Judging preferences among leaders and managers. Most organizations favor logical and decisive behaviors. Women managers sometimes show greater Feeling types, but they also tend to have Thinking as their preferred types.
15 So, What Does This Mean? A manager/leader who makes decisions based on logic and rational ideas (T), may be ignoring values & ideals when seen through the eyes of a person who makes decisions with his/her feelings (F). Coaching example with Sally and Todd T s can view F s as too emotional & Illogical while F s can feel that T s are too Task oriented & uncaring.
16 A manager who has Judging (J) prefers to organize the external environment through order, structure & schedules. This will conflict with a person who is Perceiving (P) who prefers to keep the environment as open & unstructured as possible to include more information, possibilities & spontaneity. One of the biggest sources of conflict over work habits shows up in this fourth dimension!
17 What About Your Team? Do you have an idea who are the extroverts and introverts? Who are the thinkers versus feelers and how might they respond to your type? Who are the J s and P s? How does this play out in your work environment? How does this affect employee relations?
18 The Tater Family
19 How Can You Motivate Your Team? Daniel Pink: What Really Motivates Workers?
20 With your table partner(s) What?-What have you learned from Daniel Pink? So What?-What difference could it make for you and/or your team? Now What?- What can you do with this information?
21 Check out the Fish Philosophy for your workplace Fish Culture from Pike Fish Market
22 1. Coming Together Is A Beginning! You must understand people to be an effective leader or manager! MBTI Types or some other personality instrument. Take the time to get to know your team! Determine their strengths and areas for growth.
23 Strengths Finder- Strength Leadership Books
24 Why Do People Follow A Leader? From Strengths Based Leadership Book Leader focuses on employees strengths. When we fail to invest in employees strengths, the odds of them being engaged are low (9%). When we invest in strengths of employees, the percentage jumps to 73%!
25 If you focus on people s weaknesses, they lose confidence. From Strength Based Leadership Communicate each person s strengths to your team! Verbally let them know what they are doing well with specific feedback. You Can not NOT communicate! Everything you say and do gives others a message.
26 Communication Activities How to use a push mower. The Wright Family Paper Tear
27 #1 Reason People Leave Their Jobs They don t feel appreciated! -Recognition and praise can immediately transform a workplace! Praise is rare in most workplaces. From How Full Is Your Bucket? Book Little Praise= Productivity + Stress & B.P. Fill up their buckets!
28 Be a Bucket Filler: Not A Bucket Dumper
29 Think about giving 5 positive interactions for every 1 negative interaction. Sandwich method However, too many positives can decrease productivity as well.
30 From the great coach John Wooden "You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you."
31 2. Keeping Together Is Progress The most effective leaders surround themselves with the right people and maximize their team. From Strengths Based Leadership Book Teams should be well-rounded. Think about a great basketball or football team. Each player must contribute his/her part.
32 How Is Your Team? Are you a well-rounded group of employees? How could you improve? What do you think strong teams have in common?
33 According to A Gallup Study From Strengths Based Leadership Book What Strong Teams Have In Common.. 1.Conflict doesn t destroy strong teams because strong teams focus on results. 2.Strong teams prioritize what s best for the organization and then move forward. 3.Members of strong teams are as committed to their personal lives as they are to their work. 4.Strong teams embrace diversity. 5.Strong teams are magnets for talent.
34 3. Working Together Is Success Most effective leaders understand their followers needs. They rally people toward the organization s goals, mission, and objectives! What leader has/had the most positive influence on you? What are three words that describe him/her?
35 How Can You Help Others Work Together? 1. Build Trust We don t trust everyone, only those in our community! Trust takes time and effort. Trust increases speed and efficiency in the workplace. Chances of employees being engaged at work when they do not trust the company s leaders are just 1 in 12 compared to 1 in 2 if they trust the leadership! Strengths and Leadership Book
36 2. Provide Stability for the Team Employees need a leader who will provide a solid foundation! At a very basic level, employees need a paycheck, and they need to feel secure about having a job. If managers do not meet this basic need, they are sure to face resistance. From Strength Based Leadership Book
37 Those J s need stability in their routine without changes on most days. If they have a manager who does a lot of changes, this can increase stress and decrease productivity!
38 3. Show you care! People don t care how much you know until they know how much you care! Theodore Roosevelt Employees appreciate a boss that shows he/she care about them as a person. Results in: 1.More likely to stay in the job. 2.Have more engaged customers. 3.More productive in their job. 4.Increase profitability for organization.
39 "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Maya Angelou
40 What do you do to show others you care about them at work?
41 4. Create a fun work environment for everyone! What does this mean? Any social, interpersonal, or task activities at work of a playful or humorous nature which provide an individual with amusement, enjoyment, or pleasure From the article: Does Fun Pay? The Impact of Workplace Fun on Employee Turnover and Performance
42 How Can You Improve Your Work Environment? HUMOR and LAUGHTER!
43 How Laughter Makes Better Business! 1. Humor is more important than pay! A study of 2500 workers found that 55% of them would take less pay to have more fun at work. How about you?? 2. A Sense of humor may reduce sick days. Laughter can boost your immune system!
44 3. Joking around does NOT distract people from work! Studies show increased humor in the workplace does not detract people from productivity or ability to complete tasks that require concentration. It can actually increase productivity! 4. Laughter lowers blood pressure, improves blood flow and decreases stress hormones! It is good for your health! Healthy employees are generally more productive employees!
45 5. Supervisors who use humor are perceived as better leaders- When leaders infuse humor, work performance, work satisfaction and cohesion among workers goes up! 6. Fun Environments reduce burnout and turnover! Humor in the workplace has been proven to enhance workers coping mechanisms and reduce workers withdrawal & burnout! One in three people will experience burnout at their jobs. Look at the people on your left and right; if they look OK, then you re the one!
46 7. Humor Boosts Creative Thinking Humor has been proven to help develop creative thinking in various settings. Helps to diminish the fear of criticism when someone comes up with a creative idea. Previous 7 Facts are from: DocStoc.com by Rochelle Bailis
47 From article- Using Humor in the Workplace By Management Resources Workplaces that encourage laughter have happier, healthier and more productive workers and, as a result, see an increase in profits and sales! People with a good sense of humor are better communicators and team players!
