DESCRIPTION
Some people say: "It's lonely at the top".
We say: "It's only as lonely as you let it be!".
The slides in this deck provide a framework and templates to configure a support structure for leaders of any organization, unit, function, or initiative. No one person, not even any of the greatest leaders in history, succeeded all by her/himself. Even a diverse core leadership team needs to get good and getting help.
The question is: "How?". The slides in this deck provide a solid foundation for anyone serious about architecting and building out their system of leadership like they would architect a house, a computer system, or a business before building it and running it.
CEOs often fall into the trap of orchestrating meetings with their Board of Directors to:
— Show how great they are and how well things are going (whether they really are or not!).
— Avoid leaving the meeting with more to do than when it started.
A great deal of value can be derived from working with a board, but it takes a concerted effort to build, cultivate, prepare for, and work with individual board members and the board as a whole for that potential to be realized. Efforts to build a high-performing board are well-spent.
