Results-Based Leadership: Heighten Unity and Motivation with a Shared, Principle-Based Vision 

​

When you and your principal collaborators consult together to formulate a shared, principle-based vision, express it concisely, and then work with all members of the organization until they fully understand and identify with it, the results will be greater unity, cooperation, and motivation. Daily activities will become more meaningful and the vision becomes a compass that facilitates decision-making.

 

By applying the easy-to-follow guidelines presented in the book, you will understand the power of formulating a vision, have a method to develop it, and know how to help the members of your organization identify with it.

Then, your organization will have a vision that members are motivated to achieve.

 

As a result, they will become more productive, more united during consultation, and more willing to cooperate with others in achieving their common goal.

How to Design Dynamic Learning Sessions:  A Guide to Preparing Classes that Your Students Love

​

When we teach something, we assume that the listeners learn it.  But that is often not the case. Even a few hours after we've explained something, if we ask a question about it, many cannot respond.  For learning to occur, the students or participants need active involvement. ​

​

An easy way to achieve this is to design a class or a presentation, using the learning cycle, with its phases of experience, reflection, conceptualization, and application. We begin by defining a learning objective that indicates what the participants will be able to DO once the class has finished.

​

Then we plan participatory activities that correspond to the different phases, in which the participants converse with one another and carry out practical applications. As a result, they appropriate what they are learning and begin to think about and use it.

• How to design workshops focused on capabilities, including both performance and learning objectives

• How to integrate different types of motivation so that participants are more likely to practice what they learn
