| 15th May 2009 | Lyzzick Hall | The coach’s role in developing high performing leaders - how to help them lead with strength and dignity, passion and compassion. Imagine as leader you take your team to the top of a tall building. It has a flat roof, it is dark, there is no barrier round the edge of the roof and the team members have roller skates on. You ask them to skate around, but they huddle together in the middle and don’t do very much - it’s scary for them. If you now illuminate the roof with a light so bright (your vision), and put railings round the edge (the ‘contract’ - rights, responsibilities, rules, expectations), then the team will skate to the outer edges, using all the space. They put on a magnificent display, far exceeding your expectations. |
