Dialogue Guidebook
This guidebook was created to help everyone grasp the value of the dialogue process and to learn how to put it to effective use. It covers what dialogue really is, how it works, when to use it and how it compares with our more common ways of communicating. This guide will also provide a kind of a “starter kit” to get you going.
But dialogue by itself may not be enough. Experience has shown that people want to see some action coming out of dialogue. Just reaching a new level of understanding often begs the question –“what should we be doing about this?” For many people, this question moves them into the action mode.
While several people could be acknowledged for their contributions to this thinking, Suzanne Maxwell, stands out. Her guidance and leadership in promoting and using dialogue has been invaluable!
Veiwpoints- Leading A Life: A West Point Guide
West Point, the United States Army’s Military Academy, is possibly the best leadership development institution in
the world. It has produced a remarkable list of leaders from US presidents and military heroes, to CEOs, and astronauts.
Who better to tell the leadership lessons learned there than Larry Donnithorne, a graduate and a thirteen-year faculty member at West Point, who was asked by the Academy’s superintendent to write a book about West Point’s process of leadership development? The result was The West Point Way of Leadership.
This article captures the essence of that book, of which the Harvard Business Review concluded, “The West Point model of leadership is a fascinating and insightful one, one that Donnithorne presents modestly, carefully, and convincingly....The philosophy that underlies is based on moral principle, timeless values, and the leader’s selfless commitment to others.”
