Joe Bennett on 09 Sep 16The 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 Go Into Meetings Stress-Free - 3 views
-
The basics of meeting preparation (things like inviting the right participants and testing equipment) can feel like second nature for many who are familiar with the routine. But beyond logistics, anxiety can arise for individuals who are less comfortable with what happens off-script during meetings. Concern around asking the right questions, having the right responses and utilizing meeting time productively often distracts from the end goal. But there's a way to cut through meeting anxiety, and it's centered on helpfulness.
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.

""They have a real passion for detail," Mark Grein, executive director at Specialisterne, said in an interview from Stamford, Connecticut. "They tend to be very good at following a process, improving a process, optimizing a process." SAP SE, the German software maker, has hired 53 workers worldwide since 2012 through its Autism at Work program and is aiming for 1% of its staff, currently at 74,500, by 2020. "We do have clear anecdotal evidence of business benefits from our pilot program," including gains in productivity, quality, customer relations, people management and innovation, said Jose Velasco, who heads SAP's autism program in the U.S."
Supermoons and Water on Mars: What Outer Space has to do with an Outward Mindset - Arbi... - 3 views

Arbinger believes that results like these aren't otherworldly at all, but tangible and realistic victories that can happen at home, in our communities, at work and in the world (and in the cosmos) through the adoption of an Outward Mindset. Functioning with an Outward Mindset means that we're open to and curious about the needs, desires, goals and objectives of those around us. Not only are we simply aware of these things, but we care about them, and choose to be alive to ways we can help others achieve their objectives. We view others as people rather than obstacles, vehicles or irrelevancies.
Living at A Higher Level: Arbinger, Heart Math, and A Course in Miracles | Vincent - 3 views

he Arbinger Institute addresses the ego in a different way. Through simple storytelling, Arbinger recognizes the "boxes" we build and carry with us throughout our lives. These boxes, full of misconceptions, burden our hearts and impact our behavior, keeping us stuck in old patterns. Our ego reinforces the boxes we carry, making it easier for us to deny the humanity of those who are different from us, who disagree with us, or who hurt us. It encourages us to burrow deeper into our box, instead of expanding outside of it. This is how the ego interacts with fear.

This is hard to do. You keep seeing what you want to see instead of being objective. Definitely will need to keep working on this.

An Out-of-the-Box Place - 10 views

Framing Problems Through The Lens of Arbinger - Arbinger - 2 views

I asked this skilled leader (who I would describe as an out-of-the-box person) to share with me any problem she is currently facing. What she shared was a very common problems in her industry. She then described the problem in a way that would be an in-the-box-way of framing it. Meaning that she located the problem outside of herself. Outside of the leadership team. The problem, she said, was with the frontline workers. If only they could be doing things differently, then this problem would go away!
