THE WHOLE-PERSON PARADIGM
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
Stephen R. Covey (2004), “The 8th Habit, From Effectiveness to Greatness.”
“Mission statements and strategic priorities that are developed in a rush by those at the top and then announced are forgotten. Without involvement or strong identification, there will be no commitment.”
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
FOUR ORGANIZATIONAL REALITIES:
Market realities - how do people in your organization or team perceive the marketplace? What is the larger political, economic & technological context? What are the competitive forces? What are the trends & characteristics of the industry? What about the possibility of disruptive technologies & disruptive business models that could make obsolete the entire industry or basic traditions?
Core Competencies - what are your strengths?
Stakeholders Wants & Needs – what do they really want & need? What are their issues, problems and concerns? What do their customers want & need? What is the market reality of the industry in which they operate? What possible technologies or business models could disrupt them or make them obsolete? What about the owners, those that have supplied the capital or paid the taxes – what are their wants & needs. What about the associates, the employees, your coworkers – what are their wants & needs? What about all the suppliers, distributors & dealers-the entire supply chain?
Values - What are these people’s values? What are your values? What is the central purpose of the organization? What is its central strategy in accomplishing that purpose? What are the values that are to serve as guidelines?
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
FOUR NEEDS OF ORGANIZATION:
1. SURVIVAL – financial health (BODY)
2. GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT – economic growth, customer growth, innovation of new products & services, increasing professional & institutional competency (MIND)
3. RELATIONSHIPS – strong synergy, strong external networks & partnering, teamwork, trust, caring, valuing differences (HEART)
4. MEANING, INTEGRITY, & CONTRIBUTION – serving & lifting all stakeholders: customers, suppliers, employees & their families, communities, society-making a difference in the world (SPIRIT)

“I INTEND TO DO”

Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
SYSTEMS, STRUCTURES AND PROCESSES
Covey (2004), “People are the programmers and systems are the program, hence, people are ultimately responsible for those systems. Systems and structures are things, they are programs. They have no freedom to choose. So Leadership still comes from people. People design systems, and all organizations get the results they are designed and aligned to get. Systems, structures and processes must remain flexible so that they can adjust to those changing realities.”
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
EFFECTIVENESS
Covey (2004), “Effectiveness is the balance between production of desired results (P) and production capability (PC). In other words, it is the golden eggs that people want and the golden goose that lays them. Sometimes, we call this the P/PC Balance. The essence of effectiveness is achieving the results that you want in a way that enables you to get even more of those results in the future.”
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
“WIN-WIN”
Covey (2004), “In an organization, “win-win” means that there is an explicit overlapping of the needs of the organization (financial health, growth and development, synergistic relationships with stakeholders and meaning/contribution) with the 4 needs of the individual (physical – economic, mental – growth and development, social/emotional – relationships and spiritual – meaning and contribution).”
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
FOUR ROLES OF LEADERSHIP:
Inspires trust without expecting it. (Personal Moral Authority)
Creates order without demanding it. (Visionary Moral Authority)
Nourishes both vision & empowerment without proclaiming it. (Institutional Moral Authority)
Unleashes human potential without externally motivating it. (Cultural Moral Authority)

Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
THE 4 DISCIPLINES OF EXECUTION (4DX)
DISCIPLINE 1: Focus on the Wildly Important Goals (WIGs).
DISCIPLINE 2: Create a Compelling Scoreboard.
DISCIPLINE 3: Translate Lofty Goals into Specific Actions.

CREATING A SCOREBOARD
The Current result (WHERE WE ARE NOW)
The Target result (WHERE WE NEED TO BE)
The Deadline (BY WHEN)
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
TRIAGE REPORTING
Triage Reporting – everyone reports quickly on the vital few issues, leaving the less important issues for another time. The focus is on key results, major problems, & high-level issues. This doesn’t mean that only “urgent” issues are discussed. It means that only “important” issues are discussed, even if some of these issues are not “urgent.”
EFFECTIVE ACCOUNTABILITY SESSIONS TYPICAL STAFF MEETINGS
(TRIAGE REPORTING)
Quick reporting of vital few issues “Death March” around the room where people feel pressure to talk with everyone else checks out
Review of scoreboard No measures of progress
Follow-up No follow-up
Mutual accountability Only manager holds people accountable
People openly report struggles & failures People hide their struggles and failures
Celebration of success Focusing only on problems

LEADERSHIP AS A….
POSITION (Formal Authority) CHOICE (Moral Authority)
Might makes right Right makes right
Loyalty above integrity Integrity is loyalty
To get along, go along Stubborn refusal
The “wrong” is in getting caught The “wrong” is doing wrong
The top people don’t buy it Ethos, Pathos, Logos
The top people don’t live it Be a model, not a critic
Image is everything “To be rather than to seem ”
“No one told me ” Ask; recommend
I did what you told me to; it didn’t work, now what? “I intend to”
There is only so much There is enough to spare

The leader knows best and makes all the important decisions
Don’t need to see the future; need only to do what is told and follow the rules
Systems must be designed to get work done efficiently
Workers cannot be trusted; without the “carrot & stick” not much good will happen

THE FIVE MAIN COMPONENTS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EQ) - CONTINUE
1. SELF-AWARENESS – our freedom to choose, is the heart of habit, be proactive. We are aware of the space between stimulus & response, we are aware of our genetic, biological inheritance, our upbringing, & of the environmental forces around us.
2. PERSONAL MOTIVATION – this is the basis of our choices, that is, we decide our highest priorities, goals & values. This is our most fundamental decision.
3. SELF-REGULATION – once we decide our priorities, we live by them. This is the habit of integrity, self-mastery, of doing what we intend to do & living by our values.
4. EMPATHY – this seek first to understand, then to be understood. It is learning to understand our own selves & getting into the heads & hearts of other people. It is becoming socially very sensitive & aware of the situation before attempting to be understood, influence others, or make decisions or judgments.
5. SOCIAL COMMUNICATION SKILLS – this is to think in terms of mutual benefit & mutual respect, to strive for mutual understanding in order to have creative cooperation.

DEVELOPING THE THREE MAIN COMPONENTS OF MENTAL INTELLIGENCE (IQ)
1. Continuous, Systematic, Disciplined Study & Education.
2. Cultivation of Self-Awareness – making assumptions explicit.
3. Learning by Teaching & Doing.
Dr. Kenneth Kee/27.01.2005
Covey (1990), “ in organization, people usually perform one of three essential roles: producer, manager, or leader. Each role is vital to the success of the organization…If there is no producer, great ideas, and high resolves are not carried out. The work simply doesn’t get done. Where there is no manager, there is role conflict and ambiguity; everyone attempts to be a producer working independently, with few established systems or procedures. And if there is no leader, there is a lack of vision and direction. People begin to loose sight of their mission…Although each role is important to the organization, the role of the leader is the most important. Without strategic leadership, people may dutifully climb the “ladder of success,” but discover, upon reaching the top rung, that the ladder is leaning against the wrong wall.”

MYTH - ‘Carrot and stick’ – the Jackass theory is the best form of motivation (Old Paradigm)
REALITY - ‘Carrot and stick’ motivation is animal psychology. People have the power to choose. You can buy someone’s back, but not their heart and mind. You can buy their hands, but not their spirit. (New Paradigm)

I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward and drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do you might just as well turn over to me, and I will be able to do them quickly, correctly. I am easily managed – you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done, and after a few lessons I will do it automatically. I am the servant of all great people; and alas, of all failures as well. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a human being. You may run me for a profit or turn me for ruin – it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
