LEADERSHIP MUST LEAD

A system is defined by the quality of its leadership. A ship on the open sea may have the finest crew on board, the best provisions, and fully stocked fuel tanks, yet without a competent captain, it will never reach its destination but instead drift aimlessly. Simply filling leadership roles with arbitrary competencies is far from sufficient. After all, there is a fundamental difference between having the head chef, the chief engineer, or a trained captain at the command bridge determining the course. In this sense, leadership is a distinct discipline that ultimately determines the success of a system.

The challenges of our time are increasing in both complexity and speed. Established leadership methods have lost their effectiveness, while truly effective methods are still struggling for acceptance. One thing, however, remains certain: leadership must lead! If it fails to do so, conflicts inevitably escalate, resources flow uncontrollably, and the organization heads straight toward dissolution. Anyone who still wishes to lead must evolve in line with these new realities.

There is broad agreement that change is necessary. But what exactly needs to change?

 

This foundational seminar introduces the world of open systems and provides the basics of a modern understanding of leadership.

TEAM DEVELOPMENT LEADING BEYOND

The whole is more than the sum of its parts, just as a tree is more than a mere collection of leaves and branches. Constructive collaboration brings forth qualities that cannot be found in any of the individual parts in isolation. If we want to work with real TEAMs according to the OSM® Standard, we must recognize the team as an independent entity with its own unique characteristics. Simply labeling a group as a “team” is not enough - just as writing “honey” on a jar does not make bees come flying.

For true teamwork to unfold its full potential, the ground must be fertile -and organizational structures must be prepared. However, such structures are not generic products available on the market - they must be cultivated internally, and that responsibility lies with leadership.

This seminar illustrates what defines real teams and what prerequisites must be in place to sustainably cultivate teamwork within the organization.

UNDERSTAND – BE UNDERSTOOD

Language is more than just spoken words, and speaking does not automatically mean being understood. Wherever people meet, different mental models collide. The foundation of effective communication lies in the willingness to understand and the ability to express oneself clearly. This requires not only words but, above all, a mindful attitude. Awareness of the interactions and dynamics of modern communication opens the door to stepping out of destructive inner contradictions and fostering constructive, mature relationships.

In this seminar, you are going to learn the basics of systemically open communication, designed to cultivate dignified relationships.

DESIGNED FOR

Anyone interested in effective communication.

SYSTEMIC RHETORIC

Language is an art, designed to delight the human heart with eloquent messages. The adventure shared within the family circle, the speech among friends, the presentation at school, the statement before the assembled workforce, the address in a public space - communication is ever present. As hosts, we are usually focused on WHAT we want to serve our guests. However, we should pay even more attention to HOW we serve, and most importantly, WHY we serve.

Expressing oneself in a way that is remarkable within a group requires more than merely memorizing speech techniques. It demands authenticity combined with a deep awareness of group dynamics. Systemic Rhetoric creates an authentic connection between the speaker and the audience, allowing messages to resonate on a deeper level and have a more lasting impact. It goes beyond traditional approaches, empowering speakers to consciously take responsibility for group dynamics and influence communication in a meaningful way.

In this advanced seminar on systemically open communication, you will learn how to interact effectively with groups while taking responsibility for learning processes.
