"All knowledge is connected to all other knowledge. The fun is making the connections."
Arthur C. Aufderheide
Are we the right fit?
The best Roundtable Members possess the following six traits:
01
They are lifelong learners. Adopting a ‘growth mindset’ — believing that your basic abilities are not fixed, and committing to learning and developing over time is an important attribute for executives. People with a growth mindset prioritise lifelong learning so that they can consistently develop new and useful skills. They also constantly review their own performance and seek objective feedback from trusted sources.
02
They are curious. Curiosity helps to open the mind, enable growth, encourages new ideas and is a fundamental principle of adaptive leadership. Curiosity generates questions that wield problem-solving, leading to finding results. Curious leaders ask questions, listen, and observe.
03
They build trusted networks. Trust, like respect, is earned not given. Great leaders know how to establish trust with like-minded Executives outside their own organisation. What differentiates a leader from a manager is the ability to figure out where to go and to enlist the right people and groups necessary to get there.
04
They are open to new ideas and experimentation. An innovative leader does not need to be the person who creates the idea behind an innovation. Often, they simply recognise a great idea – perhaps devised by a colleague – and envision the path that leads to that idea becoming a reality. They have the courage to act.
05
They enable the full potential in others. While leaders generally find themselves in the spotlight, the best leaders are eager to take an active interest in the growth and success of their team and those in their trusted networks.
06
They are adaptable and help others adapt. Change is inevitable. To thrive as a leader requires the ability to adapt to these changes and adjust to new conditions. Adaptive leadership means seeing change not as an obstacle, but as an opportunity to focus on being ready. Adaptable leaders have flexible ways of thinking and plan ahead.
Our Members recognise that their leadership development is continuous and do not view themselves as a finished product.
