Carl Rogers, the noted psychologist, once believed his job was to fix people. His main question was, "How can I treat, or cure, or change this person?" Despite his best intentions, it didn’t work. Ultimately, Rogers changed his approach, asking, "How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his or her own personal growth?"

Rogers’ experience speaks to the heart of leadership. The effective leader asks: "How can my relationships with others encourage them to grow in self-confidence, passion, skill and clarity of purpose?"

LeaderFISH!™ gives you the skills to build these kinds of "helping" relationships.

What’s In Each LeaderFISH! Unit?

Unit 1: It Starts with Me

The secret to outstanding leadership is not in what you convince others to do for you, but what you inspire them to do through your example.

Unit 2: Be There

People may admire your talent, charisma and business skill, but they will not really trust you until you make time to be present for them-emotionally as well as physically.

Unit 3: Play

You can’t just order creativity like a lunch special or instill happiness through a program. To enjoy the many business and human benefits of Play, you need to nurture an environment full of trust and respect, and free of fear.

Unit 4: Make Their Day

One of the best ways for a leader to make someone’s day-or month, or year, or life-is simply to value them. Simple gestures, such as appreciation and giving people a voice, fulfill emotional needs too often ignored on the job.

Unit 5: Choose Your Attitude

As a leader, your attitudes have a powerful effect on the people who work around you. What impact do you want to have on others? You-and you alone-get to choose the attitude that will achieve that impact.

Unit 6: Find IT, Live IT, Coach IT

How can you live and lead more purposefully, so you are affected less by what happens around you and guided more by who you want to be? It starts by defining your purpose (Find IT), taking action (Live IT) and asking others to help you be the person you say you want to be (Coach IT)
