People need to feel safe before they take risks, so to help people unleash their full potential you must first make them feel secure \u2013 even in an uncertain world.<\/span><\/h3>

On November 3, 2022, Professor George Kohlrieser from IMD, Lausanne, presented the Turner X-Over High Performance Leadership: Leading Strategy Execution. Jacques Pijl<\/a> wrote a series of blogs about this. This is the first in a series of three.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

The personal is professional. George Kohlrieser profoundly transformed my perspective on leadership, as I wrote in my previous blog. And I\u2019m not alone. George\u2019s teachings have influenced thousands of leaders across the globe over the last decades. From him I learned that the personal is professional. Turner clients and collegues got to experience the same during his Turner X-over session on high-performance leadership in strategy execution. The 9 key takeaways:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

  1. Never be Held Hostage<\/strong><\/li>
  2. Cycle of Bonding<\/strong><\/li>
  3. Leading from the Mind\u2019s Eye<\/strong><\/li>
  4. Leader as Secure Base<\/strong><\/li>
  5. The Power of Language<\/strong><\/li>
  6. Conflict Resolution<\/strong><\/li>
  7. Power of Dialogue<\/strong><\/li>
  8. High Impact Negotiation<\/strong><\/li>
  9. Managing Emotions<\/strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

    In this blog I will zoom in on Takeaway 4-6. More on Takeaways 1-3<\/a>. More on Takeaways 7-9<\/a>.<\/p>

    From my experience as a father, I know that being predictable is a prerequisite for my children\u2019s psychological safety. Children dare to venture further when they feel secure with their primary caregiver. Similarly, teams dare to push the envelope when their leader is a secure base and lets them know they care. And that includes the way you talk to them. Language matters, respect matters. And so does an ability to come up with one-liners that express a core truth that can help them become their best selves, what\u2019s known in Transactional Analysis as \u2018bull\u2019s eye transactions\u2019. Let\u2019s take a closer look at principles 4 and 5: Leader as Secure Base and The Power of Language.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
