This episode is brought to you by Toddle.Tim's work as a leader with the National Association of Independent Schools provides him with frequent exposure to schools and how they take innovative approaches to technology and learning, examples of which he discusses in this episode. Tim and the hosts also talk about "productive struggle", keeping things simple, and seeing AI not for what it does but for what using it then allows us to do (with the time AI can save us).

In today's episode of the MORE podcast, Ricardo is joined by Georgee Low, they discuss a method that Georgee has successfully used to help her clients make difficult decisions called Why Discovery.  What is Why Discovery? It is based on the work of Simon Sinek, and it gives you a decision making filter for everything that you do.  George recommends this method to anyone who wants to create a business that really matters to the world.  The process Analyze 3-6 moments in your life that were truly impactful, a moment that you can really feel. Look for common themes from those moments and then create a statement.  This statement will help you to recognize your values, which should be actionable.  Use these actionable values to drive your decision making process.  Who can benefit from Why Discovery? Individuals who are struggling with finding their purpose and feel like they can't articulate what is missing.  Those who want their career to be about more than just making money.  People who lack motivation.  How is this different from other similar processes? Oftentimes people think of purpose as WHAT you are doing, this process is about WHY you are doing it.  How can we ensure this works for you? For it to be useful, you have to use it. It takes effort. Georgee recommends that you write down your big why statement and review it at the end of each day.  Once you create a habit, it becomes natural.  Georgee's book and podcast recommendations The Power of Giving Away Power by Matthew Barzun Trailblazer by Marc Benioff and Monica Langley From Strength to Strength by Arthur C.

This week we're talking about three ideas that influence how I lead. What happens when leaders find the courage to distribute rather than hoard power? Creativity multiplies, trust deepens, and inclusivity expands… and a new kind of order emerges.

Episode 13: Giving Away Power for More Authentic LeadershipWe're used to working and teaching in hierarchical structures, where power flows from the top down. But what would happen if, instead of maintaining power at the top, leaders gave power away to others? How could sharing power change the way we work, the way we relate to others, and the way we approach problem-solving? And what would schools look like if everyone was part of a constellation of contributors?Guest: Matthew BarzunResources and Expanded Show NotesFull TranscriptIn This Episode:“The problem with power sharing is it, because so much of us are in this pyramid mindset, it's sort of like, well, if I have 10 units and we share it, I guess I'll have five and you have five now. But what all these amazing leaders who inspired me realized was no, no, no, power isn't a finite thing, like something you mine in Western or Eastern Kentucky, like coal. It is something, it is infinite, and you make it. And you make it with other people sitting around a table, virtual or real. And it all begins with giving away power.” (14:28)“Diversity and division. They have the same root, ‘div'. So what they love most and fear most has something to do with separateness. And so that, you know, now we see where it ends with the constellation. I was like, so they want to stand out as an individual like me, but they don't want to stand out so much that they're lonely. Right? So they want to stand out and fit in. And then I was like, boy, do we have a good image for that in the form of a constellation. Stand out, be special and form something special to you. Easy to say, hard to do.” (30:57)“We want freedom together. And not some mushy compromise, right? Half freedom, half together. Freedom with and through one another…the hard part was how could we figure out how to be free together? Thirteen separate colonies. And we did a constitution and we, you know what I mean, all that kind of stuff. And we had a motto for it: From Many One. And we had an image that was supposed to go⁠—remember, he named that ship the USS Constellation. We had an image that's supposed to go with that motto.” (43:37)“It cannot be isolated to the teacher or to the student or to the comedian or to the thing. It's this mutuality, it's this interdependence. It's the invisible. When someone shows you Orion's Belt, right? The lines aren't there, you have to imagine them. And then once you've seen them, you can't unsee them. And so that, I think, is what's going on here, that if we can find those connections, pass them onto the next generation, they will be alive and not be able to unsee them and be able to build useful, much more powerful things together than we could on our own.” (47:25) Hosted on Acast.

Matthew Barzun's book The Power of Giving Away Power explores the idea of Constellation theory as a new framework for effective leadership. In this recording, he shares what this framework is, what it means in practice, and how it can be useful for philanthropists and other social leaders.--BiographyMatthew BarzunMatthew Barzun has always been fascinated about how we can stand out and fit in at the same time. He helped countries do both when he served as US ambassador to the United Kingdom and to Sweden. He helped citizens do both as National Finance Chair for Barack Obama by pioneering new ways for people to have a stronger voice in politics. And he helped tech consumers do both as an entrepreneur when he helped build CNET Networks in the early 90's. Barzun was raised on the East Coast, started his career on the West Coast, and settled in the middle in Louisville, Kentucky with his wife, Brooke, and their three children.

Matthew Barzun is our special guest on this week's episode of THINK HUMANITIES. Barzun talks about his book, "The Power of Giving Away Power," and about his time as ambassador to Britain and Sweden during the Obama administration. THINK HUMANITIES is made possible with generous support from the Spalding University School of Creative and Professional Writing.

You know pyramid thinking; it's the pervasive mindset that compels us to ask, “Who's up? Who's down? Who's in? Who's out? Who wins? Who loses?” But thinking about power and its flow between people in those terms means missing out on other skills. Pyramid thinking says, “If you're not spinning around the winning-or-losing hamster wheel, then you're doing nothing”—when in reality, blowing up that binary lets us focus on learning, playing, and building. What's the shape of that model? Author and former U.S. ambassador Matthew Barzun sees it as a constellation, where everyone is both distinctly themselves and part of something greater. If pyramids symbolize top-down-ness and control, then constellations symbolize interdependence and co-creation. In this episode, we talk to Matthew about his new book, The Power of Giving Away Power, a key leadership thinker lost in time, and reimagining Teddy Roosevelt's “arena.” Apply to work at The Ready: In the United States: http://theready.com/team In Europe: http://theready.com/team Our book is available now at bravenewwork.com We want to hear from you.

Former Ambassador to the United Kingdom and Sweden Matthew Barzun joins Zibby to talk about his latest book, The Power of Giving Away Power, and how the best leaders are often the ones who don't lord their power over others. Matthew shares how his experience with the 2008 Obama presidential campaign and his interactions with Queen Elizabeth sparked his research, as well as how their leadership style often inspires their supporters to be more willing to volunteer than accept payment for their efforts.

In eras when distrust is high, hierarchies of power are usually suspect. Leaders earn trust by spreading authority through the ranks. In his book “The Power of Giving Away Power,” Matthew Barzun contrasts pyramid hierarchical structures with constellation structures in which power is dispersed. Pyramid structures encourage a competitive win-lose mind-set, he writes, while constellation structures encourage cooperation. –David Brooks • New York Times • Jun 11, 2021_____In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer is a production of the George Bailey Morality in Public Life Fellowship.

Matthew Barzun is the former U.S ambassador to Sweden and the United Kingdom, and in his new book, The Power of Giving Away Power, Matthew lays out a shift in how to think about power and leadership.   In so many areas of our lives, power is seen as a pyramid, where the people at the top make the decisions, create the ideas, and determine the course of action. Matthew makes the case for the constellation mindset, where we rely on individual parts coming together to form something greater and grander than previously thought possible.   Matthew asks some big questions that challenge our concepts of what winning and losing looks like, and how we approach our disagreements.   Connect with Matthew on his website at https://matthewbarzun.com, and follow him on Twitter (@matthewbarzun).

You can do anything, but you can't do everything. Delegate the things you shouldn't be doing. Surround yourself with great people, delegate authority to them, then get out of their way. Don't tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with the results. Together everyone achieves more - TEAM. Give them the power and authority - you are creating leaders.

Join TNS Host Michael Lerner in conversation with Matthew Barzun about his new book, The Power of Giving Away Power: How the Best Leaders Learn to Let Go. About the book: "In this practical and personal journey, Barzun brilliantly layers lessons across history and industries with his own experiences as an internet entrepreneur, political organizer, and US ambassador to the United Kingdom and Sweden. With lessons for leaders of all types, The Power of Giving Away Power shows how the Constellation mindset shines in some of the most impactful organizations and innovations the world has ever known. And it encourages us all to recognize, as Barzun writes, "the power we can create by seeing the power in others" — and making the leap to lead. Together." Matthew Barzun has always been fascinated about how we can stand out and fit in at the same time. He helped countries do both when he served as U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom and to Sweden. He helped citizens do both as National Finance Chair for Barack Obama by pioneering new ways for people to have a stronger voice in politics. And he helped tech consumers do both as an entrepreneur when he helped build CNET Networks in the early 90s. Barzun was raised on the East Coast, started his career on the West Coast, and settled in the middle in Louisville, Kentucky with his wife, Brooke, and their three children.

The G7 kicks off in Cornwall today. Boris Johnson and leaders from Japan, Canada, Italy and France who make up the Group of Seven will be joined by US President Joe Biden and the German Chancellor Angela Merkel . On the agenda the biggest issues affecting our world - everything from climate change to the economic recovery post Covid. But how should they change their approach? How much better could things be if leaders, instead of lording their power over us and operating a top-down approach, did something different? In his new book 'The Power of Giving Away Power', Matthew Barzun argues that if leaders just let go and listened and worked more closely with their colleagues, we'd see things thrive and grow.

Article I of the Constitution vests all the legislative powers of the federal government in Congress. Is that consistent with Congress' routine practice of delegating rule-making authority to executive branch agencies? The classic case on this is Schechter Poultry Corporation v. United States in 1935, when the Court articulated the non-delegation doctrine, but there has not been another successful constitutional challenge to a congressional delegation of power for the last 85 years. That might soon change. The recent case of Gundy v. United States (2019) gives the current state of play on the non-delegation doctrine.

Certified Life Coach James Lott Jr talks about giving away your power to people and then regaining the power back !

I'm often asked why people won't step up and take ownership even when the bosses in the organisation tell them they're empowered. But people can only be empowered to the same extent that you are willing to give away your power. In this episode I talk about standing in different positions in the organisation to see the world a different way, and inviting people in your company to stand where you stand and see what you see. Please contact me on social media with your experiences of leadership and your thoughts about the practices I am talking about.
