Driven Leadership Inc.

The ability to have difficult conversations doesn't happen overnight. So what's the first step? 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁...specifically vulnerability based trust. Trust is the foundational piece in Patrick Lencioni's work The Five Behaviors because nothing else in the Five Behaviors model can function without it. Without this ability to let our guard down and admit where we need help, teams end up wasting so much time and energy. Plus, it keeps us from having the real, difficult conversations that often hold us back from reaching the goals of the organization.

Getting to consistently collaborative meetings isn’t a one and done thing. It takes time! How have you seen collaboration done well in a workplace?

Not even my top two, but how have you seen people suck the life out of a meeting?

What kind of leader are you when the goalposts move?
Yes, sticking to goals matters, but when outside factors shift the line, the real test isn’t whether you hold firm…. it’s how you respond.

Push through? Pivot? Adapt? Do something hard?

None of these are better or worse but it is where leadership really shows up. We’ve had the privilege of seeing extraordinary leadership in the College teams that we worked with this year.

If you’ve ever thrown a live gr***de into a strategy conversation, it may be worth stopping and evaluating yourself, not the others in the room.

We run classes on how to deal with conflict like this so hit us up (link in bio and all that) if you’re looking for better ways to handle conflicts
