Introduction by Phil LeNir:
In 2007, Henry Mintzberg and I started a company called CoachingOurselves.
We brought a reflective approach to developing leaders and managers to the enterprise
learning space.
The building blocks of our approach are 90 minute sessions by
small groups of managers. Each session is guided by one of our themed
discussion topics. Managers work through the topic together; sharing their
knowledge, learning from experiences, resolving issues and planning strategy
and actions to make change happen.
The 90 minute sessions are the foundation to Leadership
Development Programs, HIPO programs, Reflection Cafes, Cultural Change
initiatives, and Event Workshops.
The topics can be used standalone, or can be combined with
others to build a curriculum focused on specific business objectives; driving
change, leadership, developing the organization, engaging people, venturing and
innovating.
In this blog I have included the topic titled Decision
Making: It’s not what you think. It has been split into 3 parts, with the first
part below, and subsequent parts to be released in the coming weeks. To get
real value out of this topic gather your management team together for
discussion and reflection on your decision making process. Simply begin a discussion
by answering the question(s) on each page, and let the discussion go wherever
it needs to go.
As opposed to the classical view based on classroom training
or e-learning, Henry and I believe managers and leaders learn best through
reflection on natural experience in the light of conceptual ideas. This approach
has been successfully used by hundreds of organizations around the world to
deliver leadership and organizational development programs and initiatives.
