Human-Centric Leading (HCL) is a way of thinking that brings out your best and helps you transform the people-related problems that block high-quality collaboration, creativity and innovation.
This new mindset reminds you to see people as humans with emotional needs and unlimited potential, rather than replaceable titles, jobs, costs or cogs in a wheel. Doing so feels good and acts as an antidote to the problems created by seeing people as replaceable. As a result, you can co-create exponentially better outcomes when working with people.
Our workplaces mechanize us humans by treating us as replaceable costs, titles or cogs in a wheel. We must prove our worth as if we have no inherent value. Yet to lead effectively and transform the complex problems we face today, we need our entire selves.
Humanizing the workplace is as easy as seeing yourself and others as humans with emotional needs and unlimited potential, who strive to do our best.
We are taught to "leave our emotions at the door," pretending that it is possible to do so. But one look at the reactivity, conflict, miscommunication, CJB (criticisms, judgements and blame) or emotional drama that plagues many workplaces, we can see that our emotions go everywhere we do.
Respecting our entire selves helps us to think clearly and solve problems without losing our humanity. No emotional drama necessary.
Human-Centric Leading (HCL) a mindset -- a way of being that respects your entire personhood. It is also a toolkit that equips you with ways to approach people-related problems in respectful and effective ways that brings out the best in everyone involved.
