THE ROCK AND THE FISH: TEACHABLE POINTS
Success as a leader requires a number of characteristics and capabilities. The most effective leaders are able to derive and articulate a vision, and execute that vision by working with and through others.
High-performance leaders value the opportunity to transfer their knowledge to others and always have leadership teachable points of view—key values and ideas that have influenced a leader’s personal development, performance, and career success—that are shown through stories or powerful descriptions of important topics.
Participants in Becton, Dickinson and Company’s Advanced Leadership Development Program are asked to describe their teachable points of view, the key circumstances and people behind this perspective, and the lessons learned from the experience. Through narratives, these future leaders shape their thinking and apply their outlooks to everyday workplace settings.
To design their teachable points of view, leaders should teach, not lead. All effective leaders have teachable points of view, which should be modeled regularly and communicated in works—preferably stories.
