PBC: 081 - Leadership- building and sustaining a Vision
Description
If you are working on something exciting that you really care about, you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you.
- Steve Jobs
The term “vision” is thrown around a lot in the context of organisations and leadership. What is meant by this umbrella term? How important is it? How can we create a compelling and effective vision? How can this vision be sustained in the inevitable difficult times that will come to all of us?
Mike and Melon are continuing their exploration of leadership- as it occurs in military aviation and special forces, as well as in families, sporting teams and community groups. This week they define vision- the overarching north star or reason for the organisation’s existence. It shouldn’t just shape strategies, but also the values and principles of the team that guide the way there.
How can we build a vision that motivates and draws us forward effectively? How can we get buy in from the people in the team? Your team contend that there has to be an open forum, where a consensus can be formed together, and that achievable goals can be set.
The difficult task of sustaining the vision when the chips are down is also covered. The example of Churchill during WW2 is offered- constant communication and reinforcement that serves to maintain the long term effort through the short term hardship.
Join the conversation and let us know your experiences. How have you seen this done well? What insights can you offer? Where could we take this conversation next?
