Innovative Leadership

Sometimes, in order to avoid the discomfort of conflict, we don’t take into account that it is necessary to actively participate in the dialog when the goal is for a common good. In order to move forward in this search for consensus through dialog, different tactics can be used:

Actively participate. All members must feel that they are part of the conversation.
Promote debate. Presenting a series of different ideas to discuss and evaluate encourages people to participate and to dialog.
Direct the conversation in a logical, sensible way.
Be transparent when it comes to expressing ideas and points of view.
Have the possibility to vote on the different opinions expressed.
Be assertive when it comes to expressing your opinion on others’ ideas.

In other words, companies and teams of leaders must build a tolerant culture that celebrates and respects differences. The Inusual Blog spotlight also shares a Harvard Business Review, on the most effective teams of leaders that stand out.
