    The lesson of this metaphor very often gets framed as you have to get off the dance floor and go to the balcony, but I think the lesson Heifetz was getting at was we have to be able to move between them with facility. You have to be on the dance floor and in the balcony simultaneously. In fact, the main learning I get about adaptive change from Heifetz is that one has to develop an agility to shift fluidly between different perspectives, different scales, and different cultures. The less rigid we are, the better our leadership will be.

    • @KansasLeadership

      Great comment, Gary Chapin! Since this is an introductory video, I think the primary purpose is to introduce the idea of shifting gears to reflection vs. staying in action mode. The facility you describe --shifting with fluency--represents the advanced skill of an "adaptive leadership Jedi." What we were aiming for in this video is to help people learn to "feel the Force" if you follow me. Before switching back and forth is second nature, you first have to learn to switch. --Sam Smith, KLC director of communications.

    The Boeing crashes were technical problems that got out of hand and needed someone to practice leadership. If there was the practice, the problem could have been minimized in terms of losses. Maybe we would not have heard about it, such as many cases where leadership is practiced. Adaptive leadership is useful but not the panacea for the problems we have with leadership. The closest we come to a fix up to 2018 was transformational leadership. It is has shortcomings because the one who envisioned was not the one who wrote the theory and the ting that makes it work is not emphasized. So we see too much left out of the theory compared to the conception.

  • @billbright2981
    @billbright2981 2 роки тому

    The adaptive leadership concept is good for some places where leadership operates, but not all places. If you wait for big challenges to practice leadership, we will have more adaptive challenges, complex problems, or crises to face. In many contexts leadership is needed everyday to avoid needing to mobilize people, which means the challenges have moved well beyond simple signs and problems. COVID-19 is one example, now you have an adaptive challenge or crises. In 2004 the medical field communicated what should be done to avoid a thing worse than SARS. What do we have now? The onus to act was not the medics, but those called leaders.

  • @hbchung1463
    @hbchung1463 2 роки тому

    I and many agree leadership is not always associated with a position and power, but often it is when there is the practice of leadership. However, when one says that leadership is only needed for hard adaptive challenges, the same may not be familiar with leadership in the military. There are various types of influences needed from day-to-day. The things necessary in life are not simply technical or adaptive as defined at the Harvard Kennedy School. There day-to-day modeling is necessary by those who know the way to show the way. The same builds leaders to handle challenges as in war, contingencies, and special operations. Consider research at West Point or some academy. Do you think leadership may have been useful in Enron and World Comm vs simple management and executives?

    If only a health foundation let alone a country put the same efforts and resources into true health and not only medication and symptom treatment. A lot of trust is lost when a health "crisis" hits and gyms and churches close down but liquor stores, smoke stores, fast food restaurants and other poor health choices stay open. Healthy Americans kicked Covid with minimal problems, why not motivate more Americans to actually make healthy choices to weather these storms? A gym strengthens the body, a church strengthens the mind and soul, and a community strengthens all of us and those 3 were more or less shut down. At least we could still get our cheeseburgers, vodka and smokes. Really disappointed in the KFL stance on this one. One final thought, due to the overreaction of those in power, our society gained an average of 30 lbs due to poor mental health. Now tell me how that benefits the greater good in times of health struggles?

    Does anybody actually still believe this pandemic is real, no one I know or work with has believed that in several months. You need to do a little more research, there are several papers come out from several countries that break down the who and why about the faux pandemic.

      Unfortunately, the 8.8 million + plus cases recorded to date are all too real: www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/coronavirus-us-cases.html. Contrary to your assertion, reporting from all the world's major news outlets confirms that this is the worst pandemic since the 1918 Spanish Flu, and that most people in the world accept the truth of this virus. In this country, the families, friends and colleagues of all 226,000 people who have lost their lives to the pandemic all KNOW this virus is real. As for our research, have you watched the video? Our reporting team has done extensive research.
