DESCRIPTION
In a high-pressure environment such as the C-suite or Boardroom, tension is bound to exist. Since tension is bound to exist, the goal is not to eliminate tension, but to turn tension into productivity.
To do this, management should focus on surfacing Performance Tensions. Performance Tension refers to the class tension related to business performance. There are 3 specific types of Performance Tension that exist:
1. Profitability vs. Growth
2. Short-term vs. Long-term Priorities
3. Success of the Whole Organization vs. the Parts
This presentation discusses these 3 types of Performance Tensions in detail. It also discusses concepts of the Management Relationship Spectrum, Tension Management, Natural Tension, among other topics.
Through proper Tension Management, we can transform conflict, dissent, and disagreement into a tool for driving performance. In fact, having the "right fights"—by embracing the right tensions and making them work for our organization—is an effective approach for organizations and teams to drive progress.
This deck also includes slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
This presentation offers a comprehensive framework for understanding and managing tension within an organization. It delves into the nuances of the Management Relationship Spectrum, highlighting the importance of finding the "sweet spot" where tension is productive, but not excessive. By visualizing tension on a continuum, leaders can better navigate the complexities of organizational dynamics and foster a culture of constructive conflict.
The deck also provides actionable insights on how to re-energize the organization and build a foundation of alignment. Key questions for the CEO are included to facilitate strategic discussions and ensure that the management team is focused on the right tensions. With practical templates and a step-by-step approach, this resource equips leaders with the tools needed to turn tension into a driving force for performance and innovation.
