5x5 Leadership - with Matthew Adam


Listen Later

Lucinda is joined by special guest Matthew Adam, to look at the concept of systemic psychotherapy, exploring how its principles, rooted in understanding the interconnected nature of relationships within a system, are highly relevant to organisational leadership. 

Using a 5x5 model framework—which balances five essential team functions against five common team dysfunctions—they examine the active, proactive process required to foster a healthy, high-performing organisational culture.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Systemic psychotherapy focuses on relationships and the interconnected nature of elements within a system, similar to how an ecosystem or a family operates, and this thinking is highly applicable to improving organisational systems.
  • The 5x5 model addresses the "five dysfunctions of a team" by balancing them against five essential team functions, providing an active, hands-on framework for improving team dynamics and performance.
  • Working on the model creates a positive, multi-modal, and circulatory impact across the organisation, meaning that strengthening one area simultaneously enhances all other areas due to the interconnected nature of the system.
  • The starting point for implementing the model is encouraging a reflective space where leaders address questions about how they can improve and what they would like to do differently, moving from a problem-saturated focus to a strength-based position.
  • BEST MOMENTS

    "Systemic psychotherapy is really about relationships. It's about how do we understand the interconnected nature of the elements that comprise a system and how they interact with each other."

    “Dysfunction doesn't have to mean dysfunctional"

    "Working on one particular area, you're positively impacting all of the others simultaneously."

    "We sometimes have to define our structure so that not only are we addressing team dynamic, but we're also introducing agility and flexibility."
