This class teaches the underlying models to provide a means to make sense of leadership and provide a framework for leadership development.
Students will learn the 7 levels of leadership maturity and the character traits observed at each level. They will learn that leadership can take several forms and learn when and how to lead by direction, by example, by inspiration, and by signaling.
Great leadership requires great empathy and hence a deep understanding of the human condition. Using models from Plato, Aristotle, Maslow, & Kahneman, together with theory from social psychology, clinical psychology, and the study of resilience, and neuroscience and brain chemistry, students will learn how to recognize and interpret human behavior.
Humans are social, pack animals, and to lead them successfully leaders must understand sociology and how humans behave in groups. The 3-dimensional model of organizational culture helps leaders make sense of their situation and provides them with specific, actionable levers to hack culture and drive change. Understanding tribal behavior is vital for successful leaders. Students will be introduced to the Immelman matrices and understand how identity & purpose can drive change. This will be integrated with Maslow´s Hierarchy and an understanding of the human condition.
Finally, the concept of social entropy, leaders as entropy reducers, and the relationship of the leadership and organizational maturity models to complexity science and integration with the Cynefin Framework will help to put leadership actions into the proper context.
The leadership maturity model maps seven levels of leadership quality and energy from abdication to duty-driven. It maps character traits and behavior and provides us with a roadmap for leadership development.
We use the leadership maturity model to make sense of leadership actions and capabilities – to understand motivation and put decision-making in context. It gives us the means to understand the capability of a leader and their ability to move large numbers of people with cohesion, alignment, and congruence.
Organizational maturity will always be limited by leadership maturity and hence, organizations that seek great change and aspire to market-leading performance must develop the leaders who can take them there.
