Rosa Parks challenging the process in 1955 Challenge the Process No one ever made history by copying his/her predecessors. True leaders look for opportunities to innovate, grow and improve themselves and their settings. Challenging the process is not pointing out failures or complaining about situations. It is the practice of finding a better future and taking steps toward transforming it into reality. Corollary: He who challenges processes must also prepare for conflict. However, leaders allow their commitment to the future to overcome the obstacles of the present. “When the promise is clear, the price becomes easy.” “Leaders learn by leading, and they learn best by leading in the face of obstacles. As weather shapes mountains, problems shape leaders. Difficult bosses, lack of vision and virtue in the executive suite, circumstances beyond their control, and their own mistakes have been the leaders’ basic curriculum.”
Risk Management at BLTW Strategy Statement Education in risk awareness and the available applicable resources will help each chapter’s Risk Manager to address concerns with housing, events, and personal safety. Collaborating with the Betty Ford Center and the Leadership Training Board’s Curriculum Committee, The Risk Team will present a program that utilizes both professional academic insight as well as practical application techniques. Case studies, speakers, and an overview of our existing programs will be some of the varied mediums in which this important information will be disseminated.

RISK… Encourage the Heart Leaders recognize that the process of leading and changing established norms is a path strewn with arduous obstacles. Effective leaders recognize every team member’s contributions by: • Celebrating accomplishments • Looking for little victories that demonstrate momentum toward the overall vision • Demonstrating the courage needed for the team to persevere • Providing challenges to bring out the best in each person and to reward contributions Kouzes and Posner went back and did a follow-up study to determine which of the five practices were the most salient and important: In 1995, they wrote Encouraging the Heart because their research had shown that this practice that did more to invigorate an organization than any of the other four. Additionally, this is the one practice that team members deemed to be the most important.
RISK….. Model the Way Of the leadership practices mentioned in the book, this is often the most familiar to people. However, it is also the most misunderstood. People tend to equate “walking the talk” and living one’s values with great leadership. However, a person who models the way but doesn’t perform the other four practices is not necessarily a leader. In order to be a leader, one must have loyal people to lead. Along the same lines, simply having a vision for a better future is not enough to inspire others to follow. Furthermore, possessing great execution skills is also not enough. We must employ all five practices of the Leadership Challenge to become true leaders. Modeling one’s personal values is important for building credibility amongst followers, but it is also necessary to challenge processes, inspire shared visions, enable others to act and encourage the heart.
