  6. INTRODUCTION MOST IMPORTANT ELEMENTS OF LEADERSHIP: COMMUNICATION & TEAM BUILDING

  7. COMMUNICATION

  8. EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION 45% LISTENING 30% SPEAKING 16% READING 9% WRITING

  9. LISTENING FOUR MAJOR STEPS: . . . HEARING . . . UNDERSTANDING . . . EVALUATING . . . REACTING REMEMBER: Only 11% of what comes into the brain is through the ears !

  10. LISTENING FIVE COMPONENTS OF GOOD LISTENING: 1. ACCEPTANCE - acknowledge that you are listening. 2. REFLECTION - repeat the speaker's words. 3. CLARIFICATION - ask for explanation. 4. INTERPRETATION - absorb what is being said. 5. SUMMARY - conclude what has been said.

  11. BENEFITS OF EFFECTIVE LISTENING • You get more from a conversation than the indifferent listener. • It helps you refrain from snap responses. • You increase your chances of making more realistic decisions. • You show respect to the speaker, and in return receive respect. • You learn to speak more effectively by observing how people convey, or fail to convey, their messages. • You discover the level of language that others will understand best. • You become better prepared to make your own message fit with the knowledge, views, and the feelings of those with whom you are communicating.

  12. TEAM BUILDING

  13. TEAM BUILDING An effective Leader will recognize the value of team building, and will administer her duties with the loyalty and support of a dedicated and effective team.

  14. Definition of Team • People working together to achieve a common goal or objective • Individuals contributing their best for the organization, not personal gain

  15. Collaborative Atmosphere • Getting people to work together • Appreciating each effort and contribution • Respecting each other’s opinions, skills and personalities • Addressing rather than ignoring problems • Using good communication skills

  16. TEAM BUILDING BENEFITS OF A TEAM: A. COLLABORATION - People want to work well together and to support one another because they identify with the team. Individual competitiveness is reduced. B. COMMUNICATION – People who have learned to support and trust one another share what they know. Information flows freely up, down and sideways. C. EFFICIENT USE OF RESOURCES – People are willing to apply and share resources, talents, and strengths.

  17. TEAM BUILDING BENEFITS OF A TEAM: C. EFFICIENT USE OF RESOURCES – People are willing to apply and share resources, talents, and strengths. D. SIMULTANEOUS DECISIONS AND SOLUTIONS – Everyone generates and evaluates more options than one person alone could develop. Lead time for implementation is reduced because all concepts are explored together, not sequentially.

  18. TEAM BUILDING BENEFITS OF A TEAM: E. COMMITMENT – People who feel responsibility for and ownership of decisions feel more committed to carry them out. People do not want to let the team down. OUTSTANDING LEADERS ARE NOT ALL ALIKE . . . EACH LEADS FROM THEIR INDIVIDUAL TALENTS AND STRENGTHS . . . AND . . . THEY BUILD THE TEAM !

  19. TEAM BUILDING CHARACTERISTICS OF EFFECTIVE TEAMS: • Information flows freely and is shared openly and honestly. • Relationships are trusting, respectful, collaborative and supportive. • Conflict is regarded as natural and is focused on issues, not persons. • Atmosphere is open, participative, non-threatening and noncompetitive.

  20. TEAM BUILDING CHARACTERISTICS OF EFFECTIVE TEAMS: • Decisions use resources efficiently and are by consensus with full commitment. • Creativity is open with more options and is solution oriented. • Power base is shared with contribution by all. • Motivation is commitment to goals set by the team with achievement by the group, not individuals. • Rewards are peer recognition, based on contribution to the group.
