UAL 550 departed LAX at 9:30AM. As the B738 climbed to 9500 feet
and made the turn East over the blue Pacific ocean, the eyes were
moist. What an extraordinary week.
How might we enjoy another week together like this one? Full of dialogue, exploring and so curious, about the future.
How might we replicate the experience sharing information and our true heart felt emotions?
Our
pledge shall be to replicate this more often now. We have the
resilience required to achieve greatness, positive outcomes and proof
that we will “Go Far” together on this journey.
What have we learned?
The power of Trust
shall not be under estimated. When you realize that our decisions and
questions are not being second guessed, you are well on your way. That
person next to you, or behind you, is looking to your leadership.
Once you realize that as a fellow Leader, that your Trust Decisions are for the benefit of the team and not only yourself, you are well on your way.
How might you as a leader, assist or encourage a fellow team member on their current mission?
How
might you as a team leader actively listen and ask relevant questions
to better “Understand”, before you “Decide” and then “Act” with
confidence?
Why have you gained Trust in your fellow members of our tribe?
“In
calculating trust, each of us also makes mistakes. Sometimes you will
fire your engines and make decisions without enough information, or with
information that later proves itself to be untrustworthy. You may rely
on someone to help you make your decisions or rely on their opinion,
only to discover that person was not a good choice.
Through our mistakes, we refine how we calculate trust and update and revise our trust decision process, make new rules, and change what elements to take into account and how to measure them.” - - Jeffrey Ritter - Achieving Digital Trust
This was a valuable week of learning. Use what we have learned, to be even more Resilient.
The challenges ahead will not evaporate. The behaviors will not always meet our predictions.
Yet one item remains certain.
Our Team Trust is one…
