The C21L Wheel Principles
The C21L Leadership Development Wheel is designed to promote self-managed leadership development in individuals that:
-
takes account of the particular pressures and context of a 21st century workplace
-
is evidence based in relevant science and industry best practise
-
promotes leadership skills for both ‘WHAT’ leaders need to achieve and ‘HOW’ they need to behave in doing so
-
complements management development
-
supports leadership development as an ongoing, self-managed career journey
The Current Leadership Challenge
A C21 Leader’s job is to keep their own, and others brains at the sweet spot of performance
-
Humans performs at their best when neither under nor over stimulated by the demands placed upon them.
-
The human brain is programmed to avoid ‘threat’ and move toward ‘reward’ experiences
-
Science has proven that we monitor ‘threat’ and ‘reward’ in relation to both practical and relational factors. We feel social pain in the same brain regions as physical pain and apply the same ‘avoid’ or ‘toward’ responses in relation to both.
-
Our performance is directly influenced by our monitoring and interpretation of this ‘threat:reward’ balance in relation to our experience of both the ‘task/practical’ and ‘relational/human’ aspects of the workplace.
-
The 21st century workplace can be a challenging place, and much of how it operates runs counter to the principles known to optimise brain and therefore work performance. This can promote stress which can manifest in various psychological, physiological and relational ways.
-
A good C21 leader will lead in a manner that takes account of the above, for both themselves and those they lead
