Summary of Resilient Leadership 2.0 by Bob Duggan and Bridgette Theurer

Description

An aerospace industry manufacturing firm with a strong reputation suddenly experienced quality-control issues. Consultants Bob Duggan and Bridgette Theurer traced the problems back to the CEO, an introvert who lacked self-awareness. His high-profile disputes with his co-owner and his two brothers added to the firm’s stress level. After Duggan and Theurer taught the CEO to heal the firm’s emotional system, its quality-control problems vanished. The authors explain the importance of a company’s emotional underpinnings and show how resilient leaders can build these systems and keep them strong.

Take-Aways Resilient leaders stay calm amid rapid change and advancing technological challenges. Resilient leaders distinguish “between reactive complaints,” which they ignore, and “productive complaints,” which they heed. Resilient leaders build on their own strengths and work toward minimizing their weaknesses. The positivity or negativity of a leader’s presence greatly influences others. All organizations have a “rational system” and an “emotional system.” Rational systems contain everything tangible and measurable. Emotional systems are a firm’s “network of relationships.” Resilient leaders are alert to how people feel. “Practice emotional neutrality” by never interceding in someone else’s dispute. Organizational anxiety is destructive, but resilient leaders can mitigate it. Institute a “personal development plan”: Acknowledge your strengths, and list the competency areas you want to develop and enhance.
