Magic in the Room #129: Luke on Differentiated Leadership
November 21, 2022
In this Magic in the Room episode, Luke reflects on Edwin Friedman’s concept of a differentiated leader. A differentiated leader has done the work of self-definition and self-regulation. This leader knows who they are and their purpose so well that they are not swayed by the reactivity, herding, blaming, and short-term thinking of the anxious system around them. Instead, they have a strong vision and invite people to join them.
In today’s episode of Magic in the Room, Chris and Luke sit down with Kelley Francen and April Carter to discuss leadership development at the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. Kelley and April developed a unique program that integrates the traditional cultural teachings of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation into leadership development. The goal of this program was to make sure that the values of the community are activated by the leaders. Even if you do not work in a Tribal setting, there are valuable lessons in this episode about you can develop leaders who live the organizations values.
Today we wrap up season five of Magic in the Room! This season has focused on the skills that people need when leading a team. The good news is that these skills can be learned, if we are intentional. In this episode, Hannah, Chris, and Luke share their biggest takeaway from the season, and share some advice for every leader.
