Today’s knowledge-based organizations require highly educated individuals to bring their specialisms and experience together with others for a common goal of meeting organizational strategy and objectives. Predictably, these organizations are facing unique challenges. Not only do they require a clearly articulated mutual, beneficial, and meaningful purpose for their subject-matter-expert workers (who are professionals in their own right), but they also require a new kind of leadership awareness, and an energy-positive work environment for them.
The science is clear. Negative, disruptive, and ineffective behaviours that arise from individual negative emotional energy is one of the greatest risks to organizational success in today’s knowledge-based environment that depends on a person’s mind-capacity (working-brain) for performance.
The organizational climate is increasingly more competitive and organizations are more complex and ambiguous than ever before in history. As the trend continues, it will be necessary to create programmatic, systematic methodologies that will develop and sustain the necessary work culture, team force, individual mind-competencies, and explicit behaviour skills that can thrive in the complex, ambiguous and dynamic environment of today’s global economy.
Creating a culture that focuses on positive human energy takes a new kind of awareness, particularly self-awareness, that results in appropriate and relational workplace behaviour. The Skill of Positive Presence equips you with the tools needed to not only ensure that you are personally displaying the most effective and performance-driving behaviours, but it also equips you to recognize and effectively deal with the disturbing, disruptive and toxic behaviours that inevitably arise in today’s chaos of constant change.
