This post recently appeared on Smartblog on Leadership : To start off the New Year, a lot of leaders will take their teams “off-site” for a day or more. An off-site meeting can be a great way to develop strategy, get creative, develop a team, learn, and re-invigorate a team. A new team member? A restructuring?

I recently ran a Moose-on-the-Table workshop for a major division of a large company going through the wrenching change of a wholesale restructuring and totally refocusing their business. But when I’m leading a team with really tight timelines, I get stressed and feel like I don’t have time to go that slowly.

Last week I ran a highly customized Peak Performance Leadership workshop and facilitated a strategy session in beautiful Colorado Springs. It was the perfect place to discuss climbing to higher levels of personal, team, and organization performance — especially during these fast changing and turbulent times. New Technology.

After a talk I recently gave on positive psychology at a large multinational company, a senior leader told me, “I’m going to use this to fuel my team’s success, so I’ve decided to only talk about good things with them from now on.” You and Your Team Series. And now I have new research to back that up.

But sometimes you need to get into a meeting, perhaps because the decisions made there will have implications for you or your team, or maybe because you feel you’ve been left out of important discussions. Will you or your team be significantly affected by the outcome? You and Your Team Series. Mark was surprised.

We believe the strength of any team is in the followers and there can be no leaders without followers, but the vast majority of research to date has focused on the leadership side of this equation. It is worth keeping in mind that some jobs have clear leadership requirements; virtually all jobs have followership requirements.

That, in brief, is the concept of a leadership circle. In short, today’s existing leadership structure, expertise and purpose are designed to address today’s challenges — not tomorrow’s. Creating a leadership circle is a step toward addressing these shortfalls.

In contrast to “transformational” and “authentic” leadership, which has been criticized for being fuzzy and wishy-washy , “fitness leadership,” as we refer to it, offers a more concrete approach. “We had to train harder, measure our goals better, and become a better team,” Bunge said.

Were their teams more functional and productive? Change the name of the department and the people working there no longer fit the bill and new persons came in that fit the new name, a restructuring of a sort is what they called it. Did they feel more engaged or involved? Were they happier? Did they feel more energized and valued?

Employees at TEKCO greeted with cynicism the senior executives' blog posts and podcasts about the importance of community spirit, because the same executives had previously engaged in a massive restructuring that involved layoffs.

In addition to receiving traditional training, each participant designs and carries out a 100-day project that targets an important business challenge, such as increasing the firm’s footprint in the health care segment or developing new software to enhance mobile phones (these are real examples). That will give urgency to the learning.

When Pfizer undertook a major restructuring in 2007, they turned to ten employees to tell their stories. Then build a team of social employee influencers who can direct others to executive content and real-time engagement opportunities. This type of support is especially important when a company is undergoing large-scale change.

I recently resigned my position as CEO of Leadership Network. Leadership Network has a long, great history of helping the Church accelerate growth and innovation. I spent my time restructuring the organization and the team; hopefully positioning it for the future. This was not a quick decision. Adjunct staff member.

The team was polite and respectful. Think of how often activists have pressed for the sale and restructuring of firms and for the dismissal of CEOs. By contrast, World Bank data suggests that the average holding period in 2015 for public company shares globally was just over seven months. They were also cautious.

“The biggest leadership challenge is to create the future while managing the present across the entire organization.” What is needed is a model that creates shared value, not shareholder value, a model that replaces the old notion of competition and disruption, and instead fosters collaboration, engagement and participation.
