Our world urgently needs to move beyond command and control leadership, particularly within organizations committed to innovation, inclusion, and flexible thinking in the face of uncertainty. Hailey will model a different approach—a facilitative leadership stance—by guiding us through a Visual Thinking Strategies discussion. We’ll observe and listen deeply, become aware of our own thought processes, take the perspectives of others, and experience why slowing down can help us speed up. Hailey will pinpoint specific VTS techniques leaders can learn and use to shape such conversations: suspending judgment, creating space for all perspectives, seeking evidence, listening to understand, quieting our egos, and modeling openness, among others.
