Edward's Stories # 7
There was one additional discovery
Which appeared in Edward’s mind
While visualizing and preparing
For meeting with his team on Monday.
Edward always knew deep down
He had to lead differently. Be less commanding
More open and be truthful.
This Sunday Edward saw … In the Theatre of his Mind
The better way. He saw and understood … It’s not about saying
What needs to be done. Edward saw and understood … It is not about saying You are accountable.
…
In the Theatre of his Mind
He saw now a new play.
A play of co-creation
Rich with understanding and connection Everyone feeling valued and empowered
Understanding each other
Knowing every one’s WHY.
A new play
Where all love to be in
Contributing their best selves.
Why?
The Theatre of the Mind Showed so clearly: When organizational Why
And personal WHYs are aligned … Everyone sees and feels … It makes sense To be together, to co-create. Accountability replaced
By the desire to commit
To make the best happen.
…
Early Monday morning
Edward called his team
He explained the play
He watched the night before
In the Theatre of his Mind.
And yes …
He shared everything Including his lack of truthful leading. Edward explained
The Power of Visualization The Power of Reverse-engineering. He asked …
His team members To discover what they want The WHY which Makes them feel alive. He asked …
Them to find the reasons to co-create
What makes most sense.
Then …
Edward said … Imagine Just imagine …
[On Sunday] each one of us goes To their Theatre of the Mind.Visualizes the week ahead
Sees what one wants
To create and commit to that week. Just imagine … Then on Monday morning We all share our commitments. And then on Friday … We celebrate the achievements And learn together What went well, what we can do better. Just imagine … What we can create together.… Edward’s team members Imagined and committed.
P.S. Imagine yourself leading such meeting …
