Summary: In Reading the Room, renowned systems psychologist and family therapist David Kantor applies his theory of structural dynamics to help leaders and coaches understand and improve communication within their teams. He helps readers understand how and why they and their teams communicate differently when faced with low-stakes or high-stakes situations, and he provides a framework to help improve leadership behavior in high-stakes situations. Acknowledging that early personal history and adult relationships have an impact on individual leadership and communication, the author discusses how leaders' awareness of their personal histories can help them become more effective in their leadership teams. Armed with the information outlined in this groundbreaking book, coaches and leaders will be able to: intervene effectively to produce positive change in both the group's dynamics and its outcomes, help people in the room alter their behavior to better reach their aspirations, identify the recurring sequences of behavior taking place in a group, understand why differing individual preferences for boundaries and rules affect their conversation, and much more. Written to help readers understand the reasons why leaders and teams get along-or don't-when they communicate in a group, this book will serve as the leader's "go-to" resource for insight and perspective in leading their team.Summary: Intro -- Reading the Room -- APPLE NAME: 4-PLAYER MODEL -- CONTENTS -- PREFACE -- chapter ONE: Reading the Room: Introduction and Framework -- PART ONE: A Complete Language for Understanding Leader Behavior -- chapter TWO: Level I: Action Stances: The Four-Player Model -- chapter THREE: Level II: Domains of Communication: Affect, Power, and Meaning -- chapter FOUR: Level III: Systems in Control of Speech -- chapter FIVE: The Behavioral Profile: A Synthesis of Levels I, II, and III -- PART TWO: Identity and Leader Behavior in High Stakes -- chapter SIX: Level IV: Stories, Identity, and Structured Behavior -- chapter SEVEN: Narrative Purpose -- chapter EIGHT: Leader Behavior in High-Stakes Situations -- chapter NINE: The Heroic Leader in Crisis -- chapter TEN: Sources and Signs of Moral Corruption in Leaders -- PART THREE: Models and the Ultimate Leader -- chapter ELEVEN: From Personal Model to Leadership Model -- chapter TWELVE: Building a Leadership Model -- chapter THIRTEEN: A Model for Living -- chapter FOURTEEN: Beyond the Behavioral Profile -- chapter FIFTEEN: A Structural Dynamics Analysis of Barack Obama -- AFTERWORD: WHERE STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS GOES FROM HERE -- NOTES -- ACKNOWLEDGMENTS -- ABOUT THE AUTHOR -- INDEX.PPN: PPN: 807358606Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-38-EBR | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PBE | ZDB-30-PQE
