People leaders are tasked with the challenge of bringing different groups of people with different ideas, characters, opinions and ways of working into one cohesive group, with one shared goal. How hard can that be?
In this week’s episode of the HRD Live Podcast, Sarah Gornall and Jenny Bird, authors of How to Work with People… and Enjoy It! give pointers for reflection, tools for experimentation, models for analyzing relational dynamics, and tables and diagrams to stimulate discovery and development. They believe that leadership and relationship start with us as individuals – the stories we tell ourselves, about the world and our place in it – and their method develops the tools for working with people from the inside out.
Sarah Gornall and her co-author Jenny Bird draw on extensive experience as both leaders and coaches of senior executives in their recent book “How to Work with People… and Enjoy It! (Routledge). Their previous book “The Art of Coaching: A Handbook of Tips and Tools” has met with wide acclaim. Both Sarah and Jenny have contributed to the coaching profession in the UK and Sarah is currently President of the UK Chapter of the International Coach Federation (ICF).
