An often-overlooked aspect of leadership is how to respond to unforeseen events. Join Christian Napier and Spencer Horn as they discuss a Reactive Management Framework for breaking down unfolding events into four categories: normal noise, clarion calls, whisper warnings, and siren songs. They will present appropriate responses for each category, from trusting organizations to handle routine matters to being fully engaged during crises, nipping potential issues in the bud, and maintaining equanimity when faced with significant but diminishing challenges.
A three-step process of sensing, sizing, and responding will be explored, providing practical insights for leaders seeking to balance their proactive vision with the essential skill of navigating the unpredictable nature of real-time events. Whether you're a seasoned executive or an aspiring leader, this podcast episode offers valuable perspectives on managing the dualities of leadership in an ever-changing landscape.
