Dent Circle: Leadership
May 17, 2021 5:00pm - 6:30pm PT
In this Leadership Circle meeting, we’ll explore our personal board of directors.
Each of us has an internal board of directors, made up various characters, such as the expert/details person, the big picture person, the taskmaster, the nurturer, the critic, the protector, the young child, the learner/explorer, etc.
It’s a useful coaching intervention to explore who is at the board meeting/table. It’s also useful to explore who runs the board meetings. Ideally, it’s our highest and best self—our executive function—that runs the meetings. However, for many folks, the critic or protector is in charge, which presents challenges. It’s also helpful to see who at the table gets heard and who doesn’t.
Facilitated by Eric Svaren, a member of the Dent Coaching Stable, these informal gatherings are open to all Denters who have an interest in leadership: we welcome practiced managers as well as those just getting their feet wet in the art of motivating others to tackle tough challenges.
