Leadership Point of View™

Create a leadership vision that inspires your team

Under great pressure, today’s leaders balance relationships and results, making difficult decisions every day. Leadership values and principles help leaders to make tough trade-offs and lead their people with purpose and authenticity when they are clear about them. Leaders inspire trust, respect, and engagement when they share their values and motivators with their people.

Through Blanchard's Leadership Point of View™, leaders uncover their values, write leadership stories, and develop trusting relationships.

Talk to an Expert

Leaders who know what they stand for are able to share that with others.

Leadership Point of View (LPOV™) takes leaders on a journey of self-discovery. In the process, they identify formative experiences that have shaped their leadership styles. They then collaborate with Blanchard coaches and learning partners to write a compelling narrative that transforms these pivotal events into a leadership story. In turn, leaders share their experiences with colleagues and colleagues.

Listeners gain a new perspective of their leader, a deeper understanding of their leader's motivations, and a renewed commitment to their work after sharing an LPOV.

2 Half-Day Instructor-led Course

The Leadership Point of View in-person experience is two half-day sessions, ideally spaced two to five days apart, followed by a peer and facilitator coaching call. Use this delivery process to coach a group of leaders within an organization to create their own LPOV and get feedback from their facilitator and peers before sharing it with their manager and work group.

Prework: LAUNCH — Engaging prework assignments that explain key LPOV concepts in preparation for the cohort learning experience.

Day 1: LEARN and PRACTICE — Outlines the purpose and value of a Leadership Point of View. Participants experience an LPOV presentation from a senior leader. They then take steps to craft a LPOV through exploration of key people and events. Participants reflect on and identify their expectations for themselves and others, then work with a partner to determine ways to demonstrate each value in action through sharing of life stories with a learning partner.

Day 2: LEARN and PRACTICE — Participants explore what has become clear by creating their LPOV. Participants share a draft presentation and receive feedback and peer coaching in triad groups. The day ends with tips for finalizing their written LPOV and sharing it with others.

Post Work: Triad Coaching Call — Required follow-up call with, ideally, three peers and the LPOV facilitator/coach, conducted two to three weeks after the cohort sessions, which allows each participant an opportunity to practice their Leadership Point of View presentation and receive feedback from the peer group.
