Why Leaders don't Lead… and "big boys and girls" don't follow | Arbinger - 3 views

  •  
    "I do my job, I get my results, and no one has to chase me down or manage me. Well my employees are also 'big boys and girls' and should be able to get results: I pay them top salaries, they were hired because of their competence and expertise, I trust and expect them to get things done. But when things become critical, or go wrong, no one steps up and takes responsibility and delivers results! I don't know what to do!"

Guest Post: "How Happy Are You Willing To Be?" via Nancy Smyth of the Arbinger Institut... - 3 views

  •  
    I know for me it's exhausting to keep trying to get people in my world to change. I have to work at it pretty consistently and still don't get lasting results. I firmly believe that I deserve to be happy and am upset by others' lack of respect for me. Don't they know who I am, what I have accomplished, what I have done for them? Can't they see I am contributing over 100%?

What if You Didn't Have to Worry About Yourself? : zenhabits - 1 views

shared by Joe Bennett on 24 Mar 14 - No Cached
  •  
    Nearly every moment of every day of our entire lives (more than 1.2 billion seconds for me) is spent worrying about ourselves. We are preoccupied by concern about ourselves: am I doing the right thing, will I mess this up, will I be able to meet deadline, what do other people think of me, am I good enough, why is this happening to me, how can I get better, why don't people listen to me, why don't they treat me better, why can't they get out of my way, why is my body so fat, why don't things go my way, am I missing out on things? But what if we were freed of this worry about ourselves?

Self Improvement Tips - Behavior and Habit Examination - Marie Claire - 2 views

  •  
    Amy Simonelli sent me this article. Great thoughts on why we are so self deceived. "According to social psychologists, there's another, even deeper reason: Humans are programmed to see others more clearly than they see themselves-a phenomenon called actor/observer differences. "We read situations differently depending on whether we are the actor or the person watching," says Heidi Grant Halvorson, a motivational scientist at Columbia University Business School, who writes the blog The Science of Success. While others can clearly see that you frequently interrupt conversations or get red-faced and sweaty arguing a point, it's easier for you to ignore or rationalize your behavior, Grant Halvorson says. "You have access to so much information that others don't, like your past experiences, your beliefs about your own abilities, your fears and insecurities. All that extra data affects your interpretation of what you do-so self-defeating behaviors make more sense and seem more reasonable to you."

Success Comes from Focusing on Impact, Not Outcome - 1 views

  •  
    The romance of goal-setting captures our attention at least once a year (looking at you, New Years). We want to run marathons, we want to write books, we want to fall in love, we want to get in shape-we want to follow through on our commitments and reach the goals we've set for ourselves, but it's all easier said than done.

How to Save Your Organization From Cultural Breakdown - 2 views

  •  
    Think your organization is in tip-top shape? "There's a saying that people don't need a doctor until they're sick," said Sam Whitney, one of the brains behind the Mindset Audit. "One of the problems with an inward mindset is that you don't know you have it. We wanted to develop a tool that could expose organizational mindset really quickly, and would allow people to walk away with an analysis of their score as well as suggestions for moving forward. As soon as you start to see those weak points, you begin to question the virtue of your organization's effectiveness, and that in turn causes you to question your place, and your part in that organizational breakdown. You're revealing a foundational mindset, and bypassing a lot of the common barriers by getting to the core of organizational issues."

Resolving Workplace Conflict - Arbinger - 1 views

  •  
    But there really is a way to conflict-free collaboration in our individual work lives-that is to say, an environment where individuals feel free to vigorously debate and challenge ideas, rather than "go along to get along." We typically think our ability to work without conflict depends on how others treat us, but Arbinger's work suggests something different: our ability to cut through conflict depends on how we see others. The structure, the nature of real collaboration, is the same at home, at work, or in our communities. And it all begins with mindset.

Arbinger in Education: A Professor's Perspective - 2 views

  •  
    After reading the material I realized how important these concepts are to leadership and that we were missing this aspect of leadership in our curriculum. We were teaching leadership theories and leadership skills (like giving good briefings, or being a good listener), but not focusing on the interpersonal aspect of leadership. The Arbinger material brings home for the students the relational side of leadership. Also, the students really connect with the stories and enjoy how the books are written as a narrative rather than a list of points to memorize. This material is a needed break from the endless stream of PowerPoint bulleted lists they get in most classes these days.

What My Dog Taught Me About Solving Problems - 4 views

  •  
    When we feel bugged by others, usually we demand a different response from them than we ourselves are willing to give. When neither we nor another are caring for each other, for example, we can get quite upset at the other's lack of care. We operate with an oxymoronic illogic: I'm upset because you are doing precisely what I am doing!

Fundamental Truths That Will Change Your Life - 3 views

    Success doesn't come from movement and activity. It comes from focus-from ensuring that your time is used efficiently and productively.

    "You get the same number of hours in the day as everyone else. Use yours wisely. After all, you're the product of your output, not your effort. Make certain your efforts are dedicated to tasks that get results."
