“CYMRAKA: Transformational Leadership Promoting the 4 P’s (Pilipino, Planet, Peace, and Progress)” Five Ways to Well-being A review of the most up-to-date evidence suggests that building the following five actions into our day-to-day lives is important for well-being: Connect… With the people around you. With family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. At home, work, school or in your local community. Think of these as the cornerstones of your life and invest time in developing them. Building these connections will support and enrich you every day. Be active… Go for a walk or run. Step outside. Cycle. Play a game. Garden. Dance. Exercising makes you feel good. Most importantly, discover a physical activity you enjoy and that suits your level of mobility and fitness. Take notice… Be curious. Catch sight of the beautiful. Remark on the unusual. Notice the changing seasons. Savour the moment, whether you are going to school, walking to work, eating lunch or talking to friends. Be aware of the world around you and what you are feeling. Reflecting on your experiences will help you appreciate what matters to you. Keep learning… Try something new. Rediscover an old interest.

Sign up for that course. Take on a different responsibility at work. Fix a bike. Learn to play an instrument or how to cook your favourite food. Set a challenge you will enjoy achieving. Learning new things will make you more confident as well as being fun. Give… Do something nice for a friend, or a stranger. Thank someone. Smile. Volunteer your time. Join a community group. Look out, as well as in. Seeing yourself, and your happiness, linked to the wider community can be incredibly rewarding and creates connections with the people around you. Five Ways to Well-being Well-being Good feelings, day-to-day and overall happiness, satisfaction Conne ct Good Functioni ng Give Keep Learning Be active Take Notice Mental Capital Resilience, self-esteem, cognitive capacity, emotional intelligence As the evidence indicates, it is known that each action theme (connect, be active, take notice, keep learning, give) positively enhances personal wellbeing. The model suggests that following the advice of these interventions enhances personal well-being by making a person feel good and by bolstering his/her mental capital. The actions mainly influence well-being and mental capital by interacting at the level of ‘functioning’.

They may not be sufficient to denote ‘good functioning’ in its entirety but, according to the evidence base to date, they play an essential role in satisfying needs for positive relationships, autonomy, competency and security. The action themes are designed to promote their own positive feedback loops so they reinforce similar and more frequent well-being-promoting behaviors. For example, ‘giving’ by doing something nice for someone will, in most cases, provoke a thank-you, which increases a feeling of satisfaction and the likelihood of doing something nice for someone again. Alternatively, learning something new (like how to cook your favorite food) may lead to a sense of achievement and, as a result, a greater sense of competence and autonomy, which, in turn, leads to feelings of contentment and self-worth. This is reflected in research findings showing that simply having positive emotions changes how people think and behave and enhances psychological resources like optimism and resilience. The feedback loop between well-being and mental capital operates in both directions and represents a multitude of possible relationships between the two. For example, it makes sense that feeling happy can lead to greater resilience or that higher self-esteem leads to greater feelings of satisfaction.

As Huppert summarizes, ‘positive emotions can lead to positive cognitions which in turn contribute to further positive emotions’. The aim of this set of actions is to communicate behavior changes at the individual level. They have been formulated to be as accessible as possible to all individuals in the population, in trying to overcome both available resources and favorable external conditions (like school, work, home life and physical health). What this model does not explain is the role of enablers (infrastructure and motivators) at the societal level, which have the capacity to encourage and sustain individual behavior change. Critically, each action does not need to be practiced in parallel. For example, an individual could ‘be active’ by going for a walk while connecting’ by going for a walk with a friend. They are generic actions that purposefully appeal to as wide a number of people as possible. Yet, at the same time, they can be applied to specific life domains. For example, there is not an action specifically oriented around well-being at school, but an individual could incorporate the advice into their school life by cycling to school, by taking on a new responsibility at home or by investing some time in relationships at work.

Now you’ve finished reading all the instructions, obey only 1, 2 and 20 LEADERSHIP - is a process that enables a person to influence others to achieve a goal; inspires the followers to set higher goals for themselves.

4 dimensions: - the leader - the followers; and - the demands of situation or the GOAL - communication Also note that the situation normally has a greater effect on a leader's action than his or her traits. This is because while traits may have an impressive stability over a period of time, they have little consistency across situations. Various forces will affect these four factors. Examples of forces are your relationship with your seniors, the skill of your followers, the informal leaders within your organization, and how your organization is organized. the Theories on Leadership: 1. Trait Theory – certain personality traits may lead people spontaneously roles. 2. Great Events Theory – A crisis or important event may cause a person to rise to the occasion, which brings out extraordinary leadership qualities in an ordinary person. 3. Transformational Leadership Theory – leadership skills can be mastered by people who wish to become leaders. Very Important Components of Effective Leadership - belief and confidence in leadership - effective communication by the leadership into leadership Leader You must have an honest understanding of who you are, what you know, and what you can do. Also, note that it is the followers, not the leader or someone else who determines if the leader is successful.

If they do not trust or lack confidence in their leader, then they will be uninspired. To be successful you have to convince your followers, not yourself or your superiors, that you are worthy of being followed. Followers Different people require different styles of leadership. For example, a new hire requires more supervision than an experienced employee. A person who lacks motivation requires a different approach than one with a high degree of motivation. You must know your people! The fundamental starting point is having a good understanding of human nature, such as needs, emotions, and motivation. You must come to know your employees' be, know, and do attributes. Communication You lead through two-way communication. Much of it is nonverbal. For instance, when you “set the example,” that communicates to your people that you would not ask them to perform anything that you would not be willing to do. What and how you communicate either builds or harms the relationship between you and your employees. Situation All situations are different. What you do in one situation will not always work in another. You must use your judgment to decide the best course of action and the leadership style needed for each situation.

For example, you may need to confront an employee for inappropriate behavior, but if the confrontation is too late or too early, too harsh or too weak, then the results may prove ineffective. Effective Leadership Checklist: • Able to handle top leaders or other leaders • Able to manage time wisely-can establish priorities and not get swamped down by minor details • Results-oriented; “I do not care how you do it. Just do it.” Able to read between the lines. People do not always tell you somethinghow they say something is often as important as what they say. • • are a tyrant, too little and you are a cream puff. Patient Good at handling stress. They must resist taking job-related stress at home since this can damage one’s family/social life. • • • A good example for followers. They cannot break the rules and expect followers to adhere to them. Motivated. They have to like being a leader in spite of all its problems and have the will to manage. • • Able to handle emergencies Firm, yet fair-a very difficult combination • Able to be close to followers and still be the boss- particularly difficult when managing friends and former peers. • Effective at handling problemfollowers.

These tough cases will consume great even amounts in of supervisory time and energy. What is a LEADER? A coach..... A mentor..... A communicator.....

One at a Most things are difficult, before they are easy. Authority is a poor substitute for leadership. Honor people and they will honor you. Fail to honor people and they will fail to honor you. The more you say, the less they will remember. There is no better than NOW! *Q UALITIES OF L EADERSHIP * Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. Never discourage anyone who continually makes progress, no matter how slow. Many people would rather you heard their story than granted their request. Real leaders are ordinary people with extraordinary determination. Leaders don’t force people to follow; they invite them on a journey. “If your actions inspire others to DREAM MORE..... LEARN MORE..... DO MORE..... and BECOME MORE..... YOU are a LEADER. One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time. LEADERSHIP is action, not position. Don’t wait for your ship to come in, swim out to meet it. A leader is someone who believes in you, and gets you to believe in yourself. Leaders make the impossible possible. Leaders consider the past, evaluate the present, and create the future.

We are what we repeatedly do. EXCELLENCE, then, is not an act but a HABIT. E M A TEAM – is a group of people with various complementary skills, WORKING TOGETHER towards a common VISION; a team is a group of people working to gether towards a common goal. - Members operate with a high degree of TRUST, accountability and interdependence. - Members share authority and RESPONSIBILITY for self-management. - Members create synergy with strong sense of mutual COMMITMENT. - generates performance GREATER than the sum of the performance of its INDIVIDUAL member. TEAMWORK – is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon RESULTS. - Members HELP one another, help OTHER team members REALIZE their TRUE POTENTIAL - Members create an environment that allows everyone to GO BEYOND their LIMITATIONS. - Separates the winners from the losers - Share center point values T TOGETHER EVERYONE MORE “Alone we can do so little, Together we can do so much.” = HELEN KELLER = ACHIEVES TEAMWORK – simply stated, it is less ME and more WE.

Working in teams helps build synergy between its members and, as a result, the work, at hand, gets efficiently done. TEAM QUALITY COLLABORATION: - communication - coordination balance of contributions mutual support effort cohesion COMING TOGETHER IS A BEGINNING; KEEPING TOGETHER IS PROGRESS; WORKING TOGETHER IS SUCCESS!!! If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself. Let’s DO IT! Is more powerful than I DO IT! Or YOU DO IT! 6-Fold Approach to Team Building 1. PURPOSE People who had a clear purpose which gave meaning to their lives, were far more likely to survive, and retain some level of humanity during times of horror, than those who did not. If you are unsure of your why, your motivation levels will be low. And, when you know your purpose, you will discover the genius within you. The team also needs to know its greater purpose. Each individual needs to have clarity of personal purpose and meaning and share in the greater mission and vision of the team. 2. Instinctive ways of doing You have a natural way of doing things.

An instinctive modus operandi that determines not what you are capable of doing, but what you will and won’t do. Each person is unique. If each team member draws on his or her instincts, performance will be high. Team building requires picking the right people with different instincts. 3. Relationship to others: • What is your attitude to people who are different to you? • How do you handle personality mismatches? • How are you treated and how do you treat others? • Why should you even care? People in your team are a mirror. An image of yourself. They reflect back to you parts of yourself that you deny, parts you hide from view, or parts you have lost. They show you the points that need healing. That is why the people who trigger or hurt you the most, offer you the greatest opportunity for growth and expansion. They also teach you assertiveness, patience, compassion, self respect. As the saying goes... ‘...We teach people how to treat us.’ 4. Teams develop roles: Team roles play off each other and create the ‘other’. Soon an ‘us/them’ conversation emerges. Yet although the roles are bigger than you, you are bigger than the role.

If, for example, you hold the role of initiator very strongly, another role that holds back and wants to stay the same, must emerge to provide balance. This is called the law of polarity. one course simply isn’t enough. When you choose courses, be sure to look for ones that are highly experiential in nature. The more time to 17alling17 the easier it is to apply. 6. Embracing change and stress: If you learn to manage stress to flow with change, you will enjoy challenges and ride the waves of tough times. Your contribution to team will be dynamic, not stressful. 5. Interpersonal skill: • Setting healthy boundaries, • Listening and communication skills, • Being assertive, • Self expression, • Leadership, • Emotional intelligence, • Handling conflict are interpersonal skills that each member will develop over time. Skills take people a long way. Individuals and organizations don’t pay enough attention to this area. You need plenty of practice and patience.

Followers are naturally drawn to people who exhibit strength and can inspire belief in others. These qualities tend to produce a charismatic effect.

Charisma tends to result from effective leadership and the qualities which enable effective leadership. Charisma is by itself no guarantee of effective leadership. Some people are born more naturally to leadership than others. Most people don't seek to be a leader, but many more people are able to lead, in one way or another and in one situation or another, than they realize. People who want to be a leader can develop leadership ability. Leadership is not the exclusive preserve of the wealthy and educated. Leadership is a matter of personal conviction and believing strongly in a cause or aim, whatever it is. Leadership sometimes comes to people later in life, and this is no bad thing. Humanity tends to be generational characteristic. There is no real obstacle to people who seek to become leaders if leadership is approached with proper integrity. Anyone can be a leader if he/she is suitably driven to a particular cause. And many qualities of effective leadership, like confidence and charisma, continue to grow from experience in the leadership role. Even initially surprised modest leaders can become great ones, and sometimes the greatest ones. Leadership can be performed with different styles. Some leaders have one style, which is right for certain situations and wrong for others.

Some leaders can adapt and use different leadership styles for given situations. Adaptability of style is an increasingly significant aspect of leadership, because the world is increasingly complex and dynamic. Adaptability stems from objectivity, which in turn stems from emotional security and emotional maturity. Again these strengths are not dependent on wealth or education, or skills or processes. Leadership Principles There is only one way - the straight way. It sets the tone of the organization. Be open to the best of what everyone, everywhere, has to offer; transfer learning across your organization. 3. Get the right people in the right jobs - it is more important than developing a strategy. 4. An informal atmosphere is a competitive advantage. 5. Make sure everybody counts and everybody knows they count. 6. Legitimate self-confidence is a winner - the true test of self-confidence is the courage to be open. 7. Business has to be fun - celebrations energize and organization. 8. Never underestimate the other guy. 9. Understand where real value is added and put your best people there. 10. Know when to meddle and when to let go - this is pure instinct. 1. 2.

As a leader, your main priority is to get the job done, whatever the job is. Leaders make things happen by: • knowing your objectives and having a plan how to achieve them • building a team committed to achieving the objectives • helping each team member to give their best efforts As a leader you must know yourself. Know your own strengths and weaknesses, so that you can build the best team around you. Plan carefully, with your people where appropriate, how you will achieve your aims. You may have to redefine or develop your own new aims and priorities. Build teams. Ensure you look after people and that communications and relationships are good. Communication is critical. Listen, consult, involve, explain why as well as what needs to be done. "... Praise loudly, blame softly." (Catherine the Great). Follow this maxim. Take time to listen to and really understand people. Walk the job. Ask and learn about what people do and think, and how they think improvements can be made. Accentuate the positive. Express things in terms of what should be done, not what should not be done. Have faith in people to do great things - given space and air and time, everyone can achieve more than they hope for.

Provide people with relevant interesting opportunities, with proper measures and rewards and they will more than repay your faith. Take difficult decisions bravely, and be truthful and sensitive when you implement them. Constantly seek to learn from the people around you - they will teach you more about yourself than anything else. Embrace change. The Four Agreements Don Miguel Ruiz's Code for Life agreement 1 Be impeccable with your word. - Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love. agreement 2 Don’t take anything personally. - Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering. agreement 3 Don’t make assumptions. - Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. agreement 4 Always do your best.

- Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret. Cherie Carter-Scott's Rules of Life ('Rules for Being Human') "Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood." (Helen Keller) Rule One - You will receive a body. Whether you love it or hate it, it's yours for life, so accept it. What counts is what's inside. Rule Two - You will be presented with lessons. Life is a constant learning experience, which every day provides opportunities for you to learn more. These lessons specific to you, and learning them 'is the key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and relevance of your own life'. Rule Three - There are no mistakes, only lessons. Your development towards wisdom is a process of experimentation, trial and error, so it's inevitable things will not always go to plan or turn out how you'd want. Compassion is the remedy for harsh judgment - of ourselves and others. Forgiveness is not only divine - it's also 'the act of erasing an emotional debt'.

Behaving ethically, with integrity, and with humor - especially the ability to laugh at yourself and your own mishaps are central to the perspective that 'mistakes' are simply lessons we must learn. Rule Four - The lesson is repeated until learned. Lessons repeat until learned. What manifest as problems and challenges, irritations and frustrations are more lessons - they will repeat until you see them as such and learn from them. Your own awareness and your ability to change are requisites of executing this rule. Also fundamental is the acceptance that you are not a victim of fate or circumstance - 'causality' must be acknowledged; that is to say: things happen to you because of how you are and what you do. To blame anyone or anything else for your misfortunes is an escape and a denial; you yourself are responsible for you, and what happens to you. Patience is required - change doesn't happen overnight, so give change time to happen. Rule Five - Learning does not end. While you are alive there are always lessons to be learned. Surrender to the 'rhythm of life', don't struggle against it.

Commit to the process of constant learning and change - be humble enough to always acknowledge your own weaknesses, and be flexible enough to adapt from what you may be accustomed to, because rigidity will deny you the freedom of new possibilities. Rule Six - "There" is no better than "here". The other side of the hill may be greener than your own, but being there is not the key to endless happiness. Be grateful for and enjoy what you have, and where you are on your journey. Appreciate the abundance of what's good in your life, rather than measure and amass things that do not actually lead to happiness. Living in the present helps you attain peace. Rule Seven - Others are only mirrors of you. You love or hate something about another person according to what love or hate about yourself. Be tolerant; accept others as they are, and strive for clarity of self-awareness; strive to truly understand and have an objective perception of your own self, your thoughts and feelings. Negative experiences are opportunities to heal the wounds that you carry. Support others, and by doing so you support yourself. Rule Eight - What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need.

What you do with them is up to you. Take responsibility for yourself. Learn to let go when you cannot change things. Don't get angry about things - bitter memories clutter your mind. Courage resides in all of us - use it when you need to do what's right for you. We all possess a strong natural power and adventurous spirit, which you should draw on to embrace what lies ahead. Rule Nine - Your answers lie inside of you. Trust your instincts and your innermost feelings, whether you hear them as a little voice or a flash of inspiration. Listen to feelings as well as sounds. Look, listen, and trust. Rule Ten - You will forget all this at birth. We are all born with all of these capabilities - our early experiences lead us into a physical world, away from our spiritual selves, so that we become doubtful, cynical and lacking belief and confidence. The ten Rules are not commandments; they are universal truths that apply to us all. When you lose your way, call upon them. Have faith in the strength of your spirit. Aspire to be wise - wisdom the ultimate path of your life, and it knows no limits other than those you impose on yourself.

The Process of Great Leadership  Challenge the process - First, find a process that you believe needs to be improved the most.  Inspire a shared vision - Next, share your vision in words that can be understood by your followers.  Enable others to act - Give them the tools and methods to solve the problem.  Model the way - When the process gets tough, get your hands dirty. A boss tells others what to do, a leader shows that it can be done.  Encourage the heart - Share the glory with your followers' hearts, while keeping the pains within your own.
