Since we last met, what has been going well? What have been the significant changes and pressures?• For you, personally?• In your work?• In your wider system?
Pay attention to the way you are listening to your partner.
Reflect together:Given the above, what will help us to be as ‘present’ as we can over the next three days? What might we need to acknowledge and handle as a group?

Reflecting on progress and learning from your ‘safe-fail experiment In Place Teams:• Individually reflect out loud on the progress you
think have been made in relation to your safe-fail experiment and your part in it
• What challenges have you faced and how have you handled them?
• What have you learnt about your own systems leadership?
One person speaks, one acts as ‘listener’, others as ‘observers’. Take it in turns and rotate roles.

Reflection as a team
As a team:
• What did you notice? What was common, what was different amongst you?
• How do you interpret your experience now?
• What impact did the listener and observer roles have on the quality of your reflection when you were the speaker?
![Page 15: Leadership for Change Programme Residential 2 Tuesday 4 th November – Thursday 6 th November, 2014 Welcome!](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051618/56649c785503460f9492e1a9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Exercise : experimenting with perceptual positionsHome group exercise: Reflecting on ‘safe-fail’ experiment using deep listening• ‘Clients’ talk together to the group about their experience of running
their safe-fail experiment(s) – what happened, what they noticed, how they are starting to interpret the experience and what they are learning about systems leadership
• Consultants listen in silence – paying attention to the different levels. Are differing aspects of the system being represented beyond personal positions/perspectives?
• Clients then ‘turn their back’ on the group. The consultants discuss their observations about the interpretations being made and any assumptions, biases or feelings that are beginning to show up. What is this telling them about the system?
• Clients come back into the group and reflect on what they have heard, sharing any new perspectives , insights or ideas that have opened up for them.
Reflect on what it is like to have ‘a good listening to’. How did the listeners impact on the conversation?

Mapping power in your system• In Place Teams illustrate the power relationships
and types of power in your system
• Use ‘Lego’ to represent yourselves and the most relevant players – organisations, people and constituencies
• Build your system on the paper provided. Discuss how you see the power relationships
• Use coloured pens to show the types of power and
arrows to show the direction of the power relationship.

….. how things are done around here.
Ouchi and Johnson, 1978
….. the collection of traditions, values, policies, beliefs and
attitudes that constitute a pervasive context for everything we
do and think in an organisation. McLean and Marshall, 1983
‘values and basic assumptions which organisational members come to
share’. Van Maanen and Schein, 1979
‘ Culture is the result of all the everyday conversations and
negotiations between members of an organisation’ Seel 2000
How do we understand organisational culture?

Levels of culture (Hawkins and Smith)
ArtefactsOutward manifestations, buildings, furnishings, objects, settings, PR, high profile symbols. Rituals. Stated values. Policies, procedures and systems.
BehaviourSpontaneous actions, routine responses, enacted realities and values. Repeated patterns/norms of behaviour. Often absorbed via role models.
Mind setBasic assumptions and world view that underpin thinking and behaviour. Mostly unconscious. Paradigms.
Emotional groundThe passions, aspirations, motivations and projections that represent the emotional energy within a culture. Often well camouflaged, muted or expressed in distorted forms.

Culture and change (Seel)
• Unless the paradigm is at the heart of culture change, there will be no lasting change
• Paradigms are not imposed by CEO’s or invented by consultants, rather
‘they emerge from a multiplicity of interactions between individuals within the community’
• Therefore, change needs to move away from ‘planning change’ onto ‘facilitating emergence’
![Page 25: Leadership for Change Programme Residential 2 Tuesday 4 th November – Thursday 6 th November, 2014 Welcome!](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051618/56649c785503460f9492e1a9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Inquiring into culture – being creative
• Using metaphors/pictures• Heroes and Villains• Find an object• Complete the sentence..‘our organisation always….’ ‘our organisation never….’ ‘our organisation loves…’ ‘our organisation hates..’• Tell stories• Unofficial induction• Amateur anthropologist/alien visitor/journalist
![Page 26: Leadership for Change Programme Residential 2 Tuesday 4 th November – Thursday 6 th November, 2014 Welcome!](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051618/56649c785503460f9492e1a9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Culture inquiry
• Use one of the creative exercises to inquire into the culture of another organisation/sector/professional background etc that you are curious about
• Use this and the cultural web hand-out as a guide to draw out the underlying mind-sets/paradigms that really inform behaviour, from the perspective of the interviewee. How do these mind-sets show up? How do they impact on relationships with others in the system?
• What do they think might be needed to work well with others coming from different cultures?
• Any new insights/discoveries? Any assumptions confirmed or challenged?
![Page 27: Leadership for Change Programme Residential 2 Tuesday 4 th November – Thursday 6 th November, 2014 Welcome!](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051618/56649c785503460f9492e1a9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Some implications for systems leadership
• Be curious and appreciative– seek to understand and share underlying mind-sets
• Work with informal processes and conversations• Encourage greater connectivity between people
from across different organisational cultures• Support spaces for thinking/talking differently
together “a talent for speaking differently, rather than arguing well is the chief instrument of cultural change” Rorty
• Nurture and model new behaviours- develop ‘simple rules’

The Network Secrets of Great Change AgentsJulie Battilana &Tiziana Casciaro
1. As a change agent, my centrality in the informal network is more important than my position in the formal hierarchy
2. If you want to create small scale change, work through a cohesive network
If you want to create big change, create bridge networks between disconnected groups

Actions for building a great leadership team/group
• Treat the beginning with great attentiveness:- Begin with personal stories and identify shared values/interests to support shared purpose- Assess individual capabilities- Get constructive norms in place from the beginning – and revisit them on an iterative basis.

Measures for assessingimpact of thinking
• Are problems getting solved by our solutions?• Are we applying what we learn from mistakes?• Are we quicker to identify problematic behaviours or
old patterns that no longer serve us?• Are we taking more risks? Experimenting more? • Do we truly feel “We’re all in this together”• Are we behaving better with each other?• Are we handling stress better?

We need boatrockers!
• Rock the boat but manage to stay in it
• Walk the fine line between difference and fit, inside and outside
• Able to challenge the status quo when we see that there could be a better way
• Conform AND rebel
• Capable of working with others to create success NOT a destructive troublemaker

2. Reframe your thinking: failed attempts are learning opportunities uncertainty becomes curiousity

4. Get social support

Assume no one has the answer in isolation.
No man is an island entire of itself; Every man is a is a piece of the continent,A part of the main.If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less,As well as if a promontory were,As well as if a a manor of thy friend’sOr of thine own were:Any man’s death diminishes me.For I am involved in mankind.Therefore, send not to knowFor whom the bell tolls,It tolls for thee.
