Bonding for Greatness…Unfolding Joyful Effectiveness in Leadership Teams

The authors share an approach to developing sustainable integration in senior leadership teams, especially in today's VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) corporate world. This approach has applications in a wide variety of contexts, including governments. The common patterns of problems have been spelt out as being centred on the issues of Context, Connection, Consciousness and Commitment. After looking at the philosophical foundations (or the underlying paradigm behind this approach), the paper then goes on to describe the Objectives, Methodology and Design of the Bonding for Greatness TM program. The importance of the Quality of facilitation is underlined as being critical to the success of the process. Preliminary results on the impact of this programme in enhancing joyful effectiveness of Leadership Teams are analysed.
