Live from the keynote given by Lyssa Adkins

Here's a wrap-up of 5&5 about identifying your values -- the ones that are resonant and essential for you. In this 5&5, Lyssa Adkins offers you 5 ways to detect your values to thrive in the modern world of work.

If teams, and especially executive teams, are going to function in turbulent times they need to expand their 5 Core Competencies (or 5 CCs for short). Underlying these five is Relationship Systems Intelligence, a powerful and quite-a-bit-faster way to build core competencies.  Links: new book -- Systems Inspired Leadership

It's all well and good to recognize that your body's neuroception has created a nervous system alert and your executive functions have gone offline, but then what do you do? In this episode Lyssa offers two quick ways to get your thinking brain back online and two key questions to ask yourself as you are headed to your next meeting.  Links: Neuroception blog by Noelle Benach and, if you like reading the original medical research, see this NIH Manuscript by Dr. Stephen Porges.

Leaders who thrive in disruption and messiness take responsibility for their state. “What kind of state?” you might ask. We're talking about the state of your nervous system and your ability to know when your brain has been hijacked!  Links: 2-minute video on Amygdala Hijack by Sarah Knoll Wilson

Leading in turbulent times means going first in the courageous work of upgrading one's complexity of mind. The most effective leaders do this work "out loud" and, in so doing, get a lot of help accelerating their own development while also creating a pathway for this upgrade in the whole org.  Links: The Leadership Circle Profile

To lead in turbulent times, we need to stop believing everything we think! When we interrogate how our mind works we can see more of what's really going on and we can compare notes with team members so that -- together -- we can make better decisions.       Links: Ladder of Inference by Chris Argyris and excerpt from the Fifth Discipline Fieldbook.

Modern ways of working are based on values that honor and uphold the human being. What a marvel! Detect your values by investigating the values the underlie the frameworks and social technologies already in use in your work. For the examples in the episode, here are the links to look up the definitions of the values: Scrum values and Scrum values poster Sociocracy 3.0 principles Scrum Values: https://scrumguides.org/index.html Scrum Values Poster: https://www.scrum.org/resources/scrum-values-poster Sociocracy 3.0 Principles: https://patterns.sociocracy30.org/principles.html

Detect your values by peeking into the past and leaping into the future through two guided experiences: into the peak experiences, you have had – those times in your life when everything was "flowing" and a leap into the future to meet Your Future Self through a guided visualization BONUS episode.

In this Bonus episode, sit back, relax and let yourself be guided to meet a powerful ally...your Future Self...who knows all about your values.
