You need a real leadership team
The need for innovation and agility have never been greater. And your CEO can’t do it alone.
Your top leader needs a top team whose leaders park their tribes and egos at the door, and who embrace candor over comfort to tackle your company’s most complex problems together.
Real Leadership Teams takes a different approach by diving into your organization’s toughest issues to both build a sustainably stronger team and make massive progress on those issues.
The conventional team-building approach has fallen short
You’ve taken the tests, done the offsites, and dove through the “7 Dysfunctions.” Yet, you still haven’t become a real leadership team.
Tribalism still trumps collaboration, you’re still mired in minutiae, and comfort has cannibalized candor.
Team meetings are endured as a necessary evil. Leaders below are confused, siloed, or afraid to speak up. Business performance continues to disappoint. And the organization remains more fragile than agile.
You need a different approach. It’s time for something new.
A new approach for better results
The real work of your leadership team is to make tough enterprise-impacting decisions amidst immense volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). Conflict within the team is natural and necessary as multiple perspectives and priorities are reconciled.
Real Leadership Teams (RLT) equips your team to embrace conflict and thrive on disagreement, accelerating their ability to make the very best decisions in a VUCA world. These capabilities are immediately applied to generate massive progress on your business’s toughest problems. Forged in the crucible of complexity, your leaders emerge as a sustainably stronger team.
Research demonstrates that the ability of leadership teams to embrace conflict NOT harmony is the best predictor of top-team effectiveness.
