Perspective on Leadership

We believe in the difference great leaders can make in an organization.

Insight Experience has developed a set of proprietary leadership models that form the foundation of our work, including the four core models below. 

Balancing Leadership™

Leadership is about balance. Our Balancing Leadership™ model considers leadership perspective and actions across four dimensions: focus, organizational orientation, interpersonal approach, and horizon. Balanced leaders vary their perspective across these dimensions — from outside-in vs. inside-out, team vs. enterprise, analytical vs. empathetic, and strategic vs. tactical. Balanced leaders mobilize teams, focus on the future, and deliver results better than their peers. They are able to balance the tightrope of leadership.

The Business Cycle of Leadership™

The Business Cycle of Leadership™ highlights the critical impact of leadership on results: How you lead impacts the effectiveness of the operating decisions implemented by your team, and this affects how teams drive business outcomes. Leaders lead through their communication, their direction, and the intentional allocation of their time and attention. Leaders impact employees by building skill, trust, and engagement.

Strategic Communication™

What you say is a powerful lever of leadership. Employees listen to leadership messages at multiple levels, so effective communication must work across all of them. Our Strategic Communication™ model highlights four things people are listening for: appropriate content and context, consistency, empathy and energy, and accountability.

"in today’s environment of extreme change, transformation, and disruption, a leader’s ability to translate strategy into action is imperative. The effective execution of strategy differentiates the winners from the chronic underperformers in business."

"While leadership decisions about time, priorities, and communication are non-financial, they are leading indicators of results. This is because together they are core drivers of employee engagement and performance. These three leadership actions and behaviors, grounded in your values, will drive not only direction for the business but also the culture you create or reinforce."

"Effective leaders leverage quick conversations and visible body language as an advantage, rather than just let them slip by; they are conscious of offhand words, expressions, and engagement. They ask their teams and others for feedback, and they check that the messages they are communicating reactively are consistent with the messages they take so much time to craft proactively."
