You currently work with that:
• Is addressing a ‘wicked’ challenge in the community—one
without a technical or precedent solution
• Involves people that work both in and outside your organization
• Is not yet achieving the results or level of impact you seek

Whether or not you
are a formal leader,
you are most
probably engaged in
the

leadership.

*”Group” refers to any type of collective, e.g., a team, an organization, a work group, or a community.
Leadership is a social process that enables
individuals to work together as a cohesive group*
to produce collective results.
The leadership process is effective when it
generates three crucial outcomes:
Direction
Alignment
Commitment

Let’s Assess Your Group…
Direction
Happening Not Happening
• There is a vision, a desired
future, or a set of goals that
everyone supports.
• Members of the group easily
articulate why their work is
important.
• People agree on what
collective success looks like.
• There is a lack of
agreement on priorities.
• People feel as if they are
being pulled in different
directions.
• There’s inertia.
• People seem to be running
in circles.
24. ©2019 Center for Creative Leadership. All Rights Reserved.
Alignment
Happening Not Happening
• Everyone is clear about each
other’s roles and
responsibilities.
• The work of an individual or
group fits well with the work
of other people.
• There’s a sense of
organization, coordination,
and synchronization.
• Things are in disarray:
deadlines are missed,
rework is required, effort is
duplicated.
• People feel isolated from
one another.
• Groups compete with one
another.
25. ©2019 Center for Creative Leadership. All Rights Reserved.
Commitment
Happening Not Happening
• People give the extra effort
needed for the group to
succeed.
• There’s a sense of trust and
mutual responsibility for the
work.
• People express much
passion and motivation for
the work.
• Only the easy things get
done.
• Everyone is just asking
“what’s in it for me?”
• People are not “walking the
talk.”

Let’s Assess Your Group…
Which outcome needs most
attention to improve group’s
performance.

While the responsibility for groups generating
Direction, Alignment, and Commitment
may fall on a leader or small set of leaders,
leadership is a process rather than a person.
Central to that process are
the interactions and exchanges
among all members of the group.

Leadership Culture
Leadership is a collective activity
Leadership emerges out of individual
expertise and heroic action
people in authority
are responsible for leadership

Three Kinds of Leadership Culture
How do we achieve
agreement on direction?
How do we coordinate our work
so that all fits together?
How do we maintain
commitment to the collective?

Strategies to Improve DAC
Involve Group Members:
1. Ask yourself first if you have all the necessary group
members (diverse, most connected to problem,
equally committed to finding solution)
2. Engage them in assessing group from their
perspective; and then engage them in an interactive
discussion about how D-A-C can be improved within
the group.

Strategies to Improve DAC
Take a Systems Perspective:
1. Individual group members’ characteristics
2. Group composition and structure
3. Interactions among group members
4. Relationships in the group
5. Group processes
6. Group culture
7. Equity, diversity, and inclusion within the group
8. Relationship with external environment

Building

culture of
resilience
• Leadership happens socially, in groups, not
within one individual.
• Leadership is a process that generates a set of
outcomes.
• We define these outcomes as direction,
alignment, and commitment.
• If a group is not achieving its goals, likely one or
more areas of DAC are weak.
• DAC can be improved by:
• Involving all/more group members.
• Seeking out expertise.
• Taking a systems perspective.
• Engaging in a continuous learning process.
