LEADERSHIP
TO THE FIFTH LEVEL
"I
have spent 20 years in management in public, private and not-for-profit
sectors. I have found the Leadership to the Fifth Level model
the best 'framework' yet for practical application in the real world
of work. It is easily recalled and applied to situations,
but even better, is quickly understood and useable as a ready reference
for my own actions as well as those of my leadership staff.”
David
Lawrence, Sr. Vice President, Human Resources and Real Estate, for
the American Cancer Society-South Atlantic Division, Inc.
This cutting-edge program
uses research known as Constructive Developmental Theory to identify
the leadership levels of individuals. These levels define the ways
in which leaders understand and make sense of different situations,
relationships, and their own behavior. The higher the leadership
level, the better a leader is in engaging in behavior that produces
sustainable solutions and the kind of results needed in an increasingly
complex business environment.
To
the Next Level
Leadership development
using this approach can provide real developmental change in individuals
and through them the organizations they serve. The process of facilitating
real developmental change requires time and challenge. Turknett
can work with individual leaders, high potentials, executive teams,
or entire departmental teams. Participants build the awareness and
the ability to unseat the status quo and grow as leaders to the
next level. The approach is especially effective in situations where
high-level leadership and a focus on the good of the organization
are critical – for example, in mergers or in other times of rapid
change.
Turknett Process
- One-on-one audio taped interview that is transcribed and analyzed
- Detailed, personal feedback based on interview results
- Two additional follow-up coaching sessions for action planning
