rather than hoard that part of the work
39息 2014, IdeaShape
Plan for your weaknesses
 Embrace your productivity style - its only a
weakness when it limits your flexibility
 Make allies, not excuses
 Figure out which weaknesses to fix -
the derailers for this job and your next
 Make it easy for people to tell you whats
not working
Go get feedback
 What am I doing that helps you accomplish X?
(so I know to keep doing it!)
 What do I do that sometimes makes things harder
for you and the team?
 What issues or people should I be giving more
attention?
 What might I be missing?

How to receive feedback
Thank you.
Feedback is always a gift.
Yes, I can see that.
How is it even partially true? Find it.
Help me see it... tell me more.
What data? What meaning?
I am glad you told me. I am ... [feeling, impact]
Whats going on for you right now? (Not an explanation of why you did it!)
My experience of the situation was different.
Heres where you choose whether to describe your perspective or hold it for later.
I want to [learn from this, make it right, etc.] What can I do?
Focus first on what you can do on your own. Then, invite them to look at the system.

  • #18: Tornado v. hurricane
  • #22: Nimble mix. Whats foreground, whats background
  • #24: Myers-Briggs with many dozens of marketing teams, from Autodesk to LinkedIn
  • #29: Compared to your teams 3-5 years ago more diverse, less diverse?
  • #31: These are women of the Himba tribe of Namibia in their village There are only 7000 Himbas left Teams I work with : diversity increasing almost exponentially
  • #32: *BUILD IS AUTOMATIC Challenging because we humans are by nature not great at valuing differences and relating well across them.Were primed for like me or not like me is this critter an ally in finding food or does it eat me? Obviously, we dont eat our psychological opposites, but this in-group/out-group template conditions our reaction to all sorts of differences. Can I count on that person to speak up for me in our next team meeting? Or, are they working some other agenda? We live and grow into our differences in social contexts that celebrate and discourage various aspects of who we are. In some families and cultures, children especially girl children arent supposed to initiate conversation. Or be imaginative. Or tough-minded. Plus, our typical ways of organizing and our images of leadership seldom help us make the most of differences. Many of our clients, and perhaps us, often act as if were looking for a superhero to save our fractured organizations, instead of seeing that power in ourselves working together. When I ask my clients who they turn to for advice and support most describe people like themselves. So if we believe in the value of diversity, weve got a lot of work to do.
