Remember when being a leader meant everyone followed? Harvesting Leadership is a back-to-basics membership area designed with you in mind.

Click on the statement above that sounds like you to discover what a Harvesting Leadership membership can do for you.

I'm an experienced leader, but what I've always done isn't working.
In fast times that are getting faster and with competitors constantly pushing the envelope on innovation and/or customer service and/or operational excellence the days of repetitive leadership are over. Harvesting Leadership provides the variety of lenses you need to be able to respond more appropriately given your unique environment.

The other trap you might find yourself in is the trap of burn-out. Renewal of mind, body and spirit is essential for your creativity, innovation and new ways of thinking to emerge; and if you are in the burn-out cycle, chances are you are enabling that in your organization too. When you are faced with a situation that isn't responding to your leadership, the right answer usually isn't to do the same thing with more force, emphasis or repetition. Harvesting Leadership provides you resources to renew your mind, spirit and body. Additionally, you may find the monthly teleconferences with other experienced leaders just the thing you need to recharge.

I know what change I want to implement but feel like I'm beating my head up against the wall trying to get others really onboard.
Stop taking your frustrations out on the wall (or the people behind it). People aren't onboard because:

  1. They don't think the proposed change is a good idea–and they may be right!
  2. They think this change is just a flavor of the month change (they'll just be asked to do another superficial change next year).
  3. They don't see what huge benefit this change will yield.
  4. You haven't included the critical folks (sponsor, implementers, skeptics) in deciding the nature of the change.
  5. Your words and deeds are sending mixed signals.
  6. You haven't used the right buy-in strategy given where on the productivity quadrant your organization lies.

Do a search on aligning or change management in the Harvesting Leadership membership area and you'll discover tools and tips for becoming effective at aligning people to a goal. Moreover, if you try these things and you are still not getting the results you want, phone into the appropriate monthly teleconference and get expert advice and coaching.
