Your Leadership Skills
The qualities of leadership required for a small-to-medium enterprise are vastly different to those for a large business or corporation. Also, the skills you used in starting your business may not be adequate. They could even be counter-productive in taking your business to the next level. Being good at doing what you do and running a business successfully require entirely different sets of skills. In your case, your money and future livelihood are what's at stake — and your success in these critical areas will depend on your leadership skills. Which is why, in beginning to work with you, what we need to find out is: These may sound very basic — but you treat them lightly at your own risk. In the course of assisting many businesses run by astute and energetic people, we have found, surprisingly, that these fundamentals are often only partially understood. Little wonder their success is usually limited, at best. At the very least your answers should be written down — a process which will quickly reveal your depth of understanding. How We Work with You In working with you as Head of your Organisation, your Quantum Dynamics personal Business Coach will introduce you to: The Balance Scorecard The Balance Scorecard method was developed to overcome the inherent limitations within conventional business plans. These were predominantly instigated by financial institutions and accountants whose perspective is inevitably skewed towards dollars and cents. They focus almost entirely on past financial performance, paying little if any attention to other key areas relevant to your business success. The Quantum Dynamics approach to applying the Balance Scorecard is based on the work of Kaplan & Newton (1992). The concept is designed to focus on and monitor your business from four different perspectives: In the centre of these four perspectives is you. You — as the head of your business, taking in your wants, expectations and desired outcomes. HBDI Whole Brain Technology Whole Brain Technology embodies the art and science of understanding how people think. At its core is the worldwide standard for measuring thinking preferences and brain dominance. The technology is scientifically designed to help you and your team to think more incisively, more clearly and with sharper focus than ever before. To access the particular way in which you and your people think, we use the Herman Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI). This is the world's leading tool for assessing thinking styles. It identifies your preferred approach to emotional, analytical, structured and strategic thinking, also providing you with significantly increased levels of personal understanding. Human Operating System This serves as the counterpoint to the Whole Brain methodology. Developed by researcher and author Peter Barrow, it enables you to view your role in your organisation from new and valuable perspectives. You, as head of you oranisation, are asked to be an expert (or at least competent) manager in every aspect of your business — while still having time to take care of its day-to-day operation. The answers are very revealing. Quantum Dynamics, working with our partners, Symphony Leadership, will help you gain a thorough understanding of your strengths, your coping skills and whether blind spots are impeding your path to success and growth. Most significantly, you will be able to identify the areas where you need to make lasting changes...areas you may well have refused to confront and remedy so far.
