Facilitative leadership to solve problems that matter Women @ Lunch Table

    • Careers

Why are women-led nations faring better in dealing with covid19? How a small NGO in Malaysia's island state, Sabah is finding solutions to Sabah's economical and environmental problems? What do these leaders have in common? 

This episode doesn't go deep into the idea of facilitative leadership but provides you a hook to hang on to the idea. As people managers, product managers and program managers we have a unique vantage point and the agency to bring about long lasting changes in the way we work, in the products we build and to shape the future. Facilitative leadership can be one of the skills to help us get there.

Resources to learn more about facilitative leadership: 1. Facilitation skills for managers and leaders, a LinkedIn course by Prakash Raman; 2. Facilitation at a glance: your pocket guide to facilitation by Ingrid Benz; 3. Silos, politics and turf wars: a leadership fable about destroying the barriers that turn colleagues into competitors by Patrick Lencioni.
