Simultaneous Leadership™
Developed around the recognition that authority and responsibility have become more diffuse as information flows more freely, Simultaneous Leadership™ captures the skills necessary to lead and follow simultaneously. This model applies not just project by project and team by team, but moment by moment and throughout the workplace.
Simultaneous Leadership™ is a practice, and it takes practice. Just like improvisation, there are individual and collective disciplines you need in place to make it work.
Modeling new approaches to holding conversations, running meetings, making decisions, delivering feedback, and encouraging authenticity, Leading Leaders focuses on the personal competencies and collective disciplines necessary to create the trust, openness, and information flows that improve work performance and team satisfaction.
