Week 0 -- Leadership Intensive


A big thanks to Joe Staker and the owners of Collaborant, who donated their valuable time and expertise in training our QLP Entrepreneurs.  Joe, an entrepreneur in his own right, provided three days of in-person, high-impact instruction in the areas of personal accountability, conflict resolution, and communication.  We learned and practiced key principles and skills to get to the heart of working together:
  • Get our motives right by expanding our circle of concern and focusing on everyone’s needs and interests. 
  • Hold our reactions in tough situations and actively choosing who we’ll be.
  • Conflict presents an opportunity to improve a process or a relationship if we can get down to the underlying reasons driving why we all want what we want.
  • Communication works best when we dig patiently to the “root” issues and discuss specific instances and careful observations.
