Leadership in relation with others

Contenu

Before you start with this learning playlist it is worth it to complete the Personal pathway to leadership Learning Playlist. Preceding playlist mostly focuses on the “I” in becoming an effective leader - your personal pathway to become a leader. 
﻿
Before making an effective influence, in a team, in a group of people, or in your City of Learning you need to have a foundation of independence, for example knowing what your paradigms and principles are, being aware of the road you want to travel and what your personal destination is. The personal pathway is something that you can keep developing and work on through your whole life. It will grow your self-esteem, self knowledge and give you a foundation to cope and manage when more difficult times arise. The place where to start building any relationship is within yourself. 
﻿
Ok, then now the step into the Relationship with others Leadership Pathway.  
﻿
What can you expect in this Learning Playlist? The content is based on habit 4, 5, 6, and 7 of Stephen Covey’s book ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’ and has been specifically created for young people who are joining the Cities of Learning Network and taking part in the Youth Pathways to Leadership course Volume 2.
﻿
Do you want to develop further in recognising what is needed for you to be a team player or role model for your peers? Understanding what you personally need to do to achieve what you want for your community, then let's start. We can do it! We can cooperate! We can combine our talents and create something greater together!
﻿
Activities in this learning playlist are
Relational Deposit: which is all about investing in your relationships
Think Win-Win - A win-Win situation or result is one that is good for anybody involved.
Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood - This is when you empathically understand someone else before seeking to be understood in human relationships.
Synergy - a Synergy is when the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Renewal - to become new or refreshed and strong again
﻿
These above competences are related to learning to live and work together and it supports awareness of different needs of people. You can work on the ability and willingness to interact, communicate and collaborate with others in a constructive way. A lot of emerging jobs which are expected to become available in the nearby future will require having experience with these skills.

Contenu

People have the natural habit to listen autobiographically, which means that what has been said by another person is often reflected on yourself. And due to this we tend to respond in one of the next four ways:
We evaluate - we either agree or disagree
We ask questions - from your own frame of reference
We advice - we give council based on your own experience
We interpret - we try to figure people out, to explain their motives, behaviour, based on our own motives and behavior.
﻿
In this short video you can see different  listening and responding styles and the effect it has.
﻿
Of course both listeners in this situation have both very good intentions. Though one is listening on a deeper level.
﻿
It is interesting to observe diverse situations and then you most probably will discover an enormous difference in all worldviews that people can have. While observing, keep in mind that people have different perspectives and that all people in the same situation can be right. For example when you as a young person are taking part in a youth work activity in your city, you can respond to an awareness activity about the importance of earning Open Badges for your future career as ‘that’s boring and I don’t need them, not my cup of tea and I will not spent time on it to understand!’. Whereas a youth leader in the same situation you want to do something important for your peers by creating open badges for experiences that people have to recognise the learning that happened in that experience.

8 common reasons for misunderstanding: https://www.emooter.com/thoughts/about-misunderstanding/
﻿
After looking at ‘seek first to understand’ we now are diving into ‘then to be understood’. Seeking to understand requires reflection and thinking. While seeking to be understood takes courage.In the previous activity we tried to create a Win-Win situation. If you want to achieve this then it is important that you are heard too.
﻿
1: You can start with ‘seek first to understand’. This is in your Circle of Influence.
2: While you are deeply listening, you perhaps will notice that you can influence. 
3: Remember that you want to create Win-Win and Build you Crew, so deposit it in the relational bank account. Don’t damage the gained confidence from the other person.
4: When people don’t want to open up about their situation, you can be empathic by sense of the emotion or feeling and respond by for example ‘you seem excited/down/irritated/... today’. The other may say nothing and that is ok.
5: Now be open and brave and share your needs and thoughts. Even when you agree or disagree with the other, this is fine. Because you want to search for the Win-Win. Where you win and the other also. Perhaps even grow to synergy (but that’s the next activity).
