Dr. Dave Cornelius:
Hello and welcome, this is Dr. Dave. I guess our session now is talking about "Generative Leadership: Enabling Happy Contributing Customers". When I think of generative leadership, I think about leaders who give birth to organizations and other human behaviors to demonstrate the ability to achieve amazing things.
Dr. Dave Cornelius:
So let me just give you a little bit of a background of who I am, and as a speaker, and who's spending time here with you today. One of the things that I look forward to is trying to be a servant leader. I'm an entrepreneur, a coach, trainer, delivered over about a billion dollars in customer value. I'm a founder of many things, so I'm a founder of the "Agile for Humanity Conference & Meetup".
Dr. Dave Cornelius:
I'm the "5 Saturdays STEAM Program". Most people know it as "STEAM". I'm a podcaster, I have this podcast called "KnolShare with Dr. Dave". It runs on iTunes and Spotify. The reason they call me Dr. Dave is that I did a Doctoral Dissertation and it's called "A Value of Scrum to Organization". So that's published out there. I'm a verbal... Written several books. "Elastic Minds" is probably the latest published I'm working on "Deliver Value". And one of the things that I'm really passionate about is giving back to the community. So "5 Saturdays" where we work with high school students. We do a lot of amazing things helping to change the trajectory of their lives and some of the things that they're doing.
Dr. Dave Cornelius:
So let's talk about the "Challenge". The challenge that I ran into. So I was doing research for a startup company, and I found that disengaged people or teams cost about $550 billion. A half a trillion dollars in productivity loss. And when we think about the impact of that to the organization? We're talking about lost revenue, poor team performance, and oftentimes business failure that happens through this process. And the way I look at this is that I laid us firmly at the feet of the leaders. I look at leaders who are responsible for laying the groundwork to create culture, where we have values, and beliefs. Environments, where we have an innovative space to work and play. And also psychological safety, something that's really popular in the agile space. And this is the courage to speak out without fear. So this is a really important aspect for us that helps to kick off idea that there's a challenge out there. There's something that's really impacting organizations in the United States, and beyond.
Dr. Dave Cornelius:
Now, I came up with this idea about "Leaderless Leader". I was doing a podcast with my friend Earl Cobbs. And I was just thinking of what should we call the podcast? And I came up with the idea that there's this concept of a "Leaderless Leader"", and the condition of a leaderless leader is there's an absence of demonstrated leadership by those individuals. Because as we said, we're responsible for creating an environment for people and the organization, deliver value to customers, and the stakeholders, the organization stakeholders, as well as the shareholders.
Dr. Dave Cornelius:
So some of the common attributes that you find in leaderless leaders is that they have unclear vision. They're all always chasing after the delayed shiny pursuit. There's an absence of empathy and it's "Just get her done I don't care, just go get that stuff done, I don't give". And when we talk about delegation without accountability, and they would say, "My team failed". They wouldn't be like "We failed", or "I am partially responsible for the failure as well", It's like "My team failed".
