Linda was my lecturer and she truly inspired me to see a different side of myself in a leadership role. Thank you, Linda. 👏🏼

A good lecturer inspires you, motivates you to ask more questions. Listening to Linda speak, opens doors in your mind to explore and ask questions of what is possible. You can never go wrong with Linda Hill!

Professor Linda Hill rocks in each one of her messages. She has this gift of taking fairly complex ideas, abstract away their complexity and deliver them in a manner which is easy to understand & internalize and easy to apply in professional life. And she manages to do so in just a few minutes. What a gift of clarity and simplicity she has. God bless. Love from Karachi, Pakistan.

Absolutely outstanding short video on leadership. I will watch this multiple times over the coming months and expand on the concepts in my leadership roles.

Very insightful, timely amd nescessary message .Thanks Prof. Linda hill and HBS for sharing .

Partnering with your employees is key... Understanding the value they bring; the other skills they have that are not utilized; and their potential... Partnering with them to utilize their other skills but also grow their potential, whilst aligning with the company strategy brings a win-win outcome for both the employer and the employee and various teams in the organisation.

Perhaps the most amazing leadership through cultural change was the cultural shift about smoking. In the 1950's 50% of adults smoked cigarettes. Now it's down to 13%. Culture is the most important thing to innovate about. Let's stop following the trail of tears in our culture and start following the trail of dreams. Let's get to the inflection point, the turning point where innovating and reimagining a culture of dreams becomes possible.

My favourite professor! Have literally enjoyed every lecture with her. Truly humble, intelligent and wise. 🙌🏻

Prof Linda is an absolute genius. Love her teachings

Fascinating insights into the role of leadership

Thank you Prof Linda Hill

Excellent video and I think a lot of the concepts are transferable between the business and you as an employee. For example, concentrating on your core strengths. So many times we're told what we are weak at and spend far too much time working on something we're never going to be great at. Better to focus on your strengths and core competencies and use those to elevate you. Focusing on our weaknesses will distract us from excelling at what we're great at.

Great video. Thanks for sharing HBR

A great leader must first have a servant's heart - Robert Chan

Real, collaborative connections between working parties are super important in successful innovation and implementation. The formal approach doesn't work when the chase is about innovation and change management, which could be either process or people, or organization-wide change.

Simple and Smart ABC Strategy Thanks Prof Linda

Very well explained! ❤️💯

So Absolute!!! Thanks4Sharing!!!

So much knowledge in such a short period of time. Thank you, just thank you.

Great video. Thanks for sharing HBR.

Interesting this ABC frame for leadership. Thanks for sharing.

Six minutes of gold!

- Recognize the evolution in leadership from direction to co-creation (0:09). - Shift focus from personal vision to cultivating collective capabilities (0:45). - Embrace the role of architect to foster a collaborative and experimental culture (1:24). - Act as a bridger to connect internal efforts with external talent and tools (2:15). - Serve as a catalyst to accelerate innovation across the entire ecosystem (3:14). - Build mutual trust and commitments with partners for shared innovation goals (4:17). - Rethink influence beyond formal authority, fostering commitment and risk-taking (5:22).

Yes, developing value added partner is a great leadership. Thanks

Love it, Connections with vendors, and consumers in innovative ways. This B2B profitable

Not sure why this popped up just now, but fantastic distillation of the gathering concept and ideas on how to think about that concept of collective genius. Thank you!

Brilliant as always.

A very interesting video. Thanks for posting.

This is a really awesome video...packed with salient advice that is well articulated. As someone chairing a large government innovation and change leadership program for the State of California, your approach demonstrates the type of pioneering bottom line, foundation, and launch pad that is essential. Kudos!

Very informal and thourough.

Very well said!!

Thank you for this amazing information.

Very interesting discussion.

these short videos are awesome

Such an interesting talk! I could have listened for so much longer

Very insightful.

loved it. thanks

Interesting piece!!

Fantastic!!!

Gosh I'd love to be one of your students, coachees or mentoree(??) - you are SO inspiring, and a wonderful teacher with real internal power and authority - way beyond formal authority. Am sending this to my adult kids - not just for business, but as a way of being. (Fab to see one of your students say you were inspiring too.) With love from the UK. ❤

Nice explanation

The big question is why organizations say that they want creatives and innovation, but ultimately don't support that kind of innovation. Dr. Hill is so right; co-creation is the opportunity. and then the culture and compensation and reward structure has to support failure in support of innovation- that is the hard part, that is rarely accomplished.

Insightful...

2023 April 19 Comment - Leadership Part1 - HBR KZfaq channel- What makes a great leader? By Prof. Linda A. Hill. (Respectfully, I proposed we should not abbreviate the names of our mothers. We should state them in full together with the surnames of our fathers. Our fathers and mothers are equals.) by Emmanuel Redaniel Matuco You are most persuasive. And I think I have gone beyond the borders of Professor Martin’s topic -“A Plan is Not A Strategy”. My last comment there was about leadership already. So maybe this is the proper place where I should proceed. Leadership is an engaging topic. Yeah, very engaging. But depending on the context it is also a contentious and at worst, a divisive one if not properly facilitated. In short, one is treading on thin ice. Protocols being said, please, do let's begin. Way back in the 2010 period of my participation in the HBR blog site, I remember a phrase by Prof. Stewart D. Friedman, in a sentence contained in one of his articles, which said something about the necessity of "not imposing one's values..." or something like that. It hit me. Thinking long and hard on it, I, the following day, gratefully wrote a response in the form of a compliment through a comment. I choose to compliment the artistry of Prof. Silverman. Besides, the article Prof. Silverman wrote that time was beautifully witty. Which was the exact opposite of the serious tone and tenor of the articles that were published together with it. Intense in fact. So a breath of fresh air was most welcome. His article delighted me so much I was compelled to capture in one word, what I've always wanted to say about the essence of Prof. Silverman's minimalist style, especially his sense of humor, "... unmatched". The phrase "... not imposing one's values" though stayed with me. Leadership being a potentially “contentious” subject, I would like the spirit of that phrase to guide me again here. Thus the thoughts submitted here are merely “for consideration”, with all due respect to other schools of thought. If I came across as “imposing my values”, please accept my sincerest apologies. Along these lines, I’ve concluded the “inclusive” route is to share the essential points of the leadership training I received from my Soka Gakkai mentors and fellow practitioners. My training started with the question: “What is the purpose of life?” "What is the purpose of life? If one were to express this in just a word, it would have to be 'happiness.' The purpose of education must therefore accord with the purpose of life." Tsunesaburo Makiguchi (1871-1944), educator and founder of Soka Gakkai. Can it (lasting happiness) be attained? Yes. Everyone is fully endowed with this life-state of happiness. In some regions of the world, or in some philosophies, this state-of-life is referred to as the enlightened state. Described by a specific language, (though there maybe equivalents to it in other languages), this enlightened state is called the Buddha nature. So for purposes of economy, I will use that term “Buddha nature”. But the term should include all the equivalent state of life of happiness other philosophical thoughts have arrived at. To continue, all life, all persons and their environment have the Buddha nature. The term “Environment” here covers in particular, one’s immediate environment (e.g. family, community) and in general, the entire physical cosmos and yeah, the non-physical cosmos as well. Respectfully my leadership training also answers “yes” to the following questions: “Can it be attained within one’s lifetime? Can it be attained just as we are (women, Devadatta, people from the worlds of learning and realization, all the 9 worlds)?” Yes. Those three questions cover the entirety of the theoretical foundations of my leadership training in Soka Gakkai Buddhism. They cover the first group of teaching that will be shared here. (Notes: See you in the next comment. Hopefully, and if possible only, in another video covering a “neutral” but inclusive perspective of leadership so we can spread the engagement and avoid monotony. But please, don’t take me wrong, I’m perfectly happy staying here, if it’s the best approach.)

Thank You

AMAZING

Please post more videos about - Ethos and Credibility - Oratory - Leadership best qualities

amen from taiwan

vision and direction and the how are still important - that is the basic of leadership...

People who use formal authorities for influence that doesn't last for long. While if you use the character influence that lasts for ever.

❤

Most of the companies I know, the CEO doesn't have a vision or how to innovate. The CEO's come in to focus on wall street demands, reduce costs and look for companies to buy. The leaders leave the innovation to lower levels and to very specific departments. Only entrepreneurs lead with vision and innovation. Public company leaders focus on stock price and personal incentives.

Emphasizing collaborative environment!

Nice

Interesting.

Key to success corporate leader ship is be as greedy as you can and as ancountable as you can. Market your poor products or services aggressively because everything is about the image you project. Manipulate opinion via fake news to blurr lines and hide your corrupted behaviour and assets as deeply as you can.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 Effective *leadership in the modern world involves moving from a focus on strategy and vision to shaping culture and capabilities within an organization.* 01:21 Great *leaders are architects who build a culture of collaboration, experimentation, and learning, emphasizing collective genius within diverse teams.* 02:18 Leaders *must also act as bridgers, connecting their organization with external talent and tools, as innovation often requires collaboration beyond organizational boundaries.* 03:15 Being *a catalyst involves accelerating co-creation across the entire ecosystem, which is essential for achieving ambitious goals that go beyond the organization's scope.* 05:40 Influence *in leadership should rely less on formal authority and more on shaping culture, forging genuine connections, and building commitment, as innovation is a voluntary act that cannot be commanded.* Made with HARPA AI

ABC 👌

👍

More about getting them to co-create it with by making inner leaders that requires different style of leadership

you killing me ma'am.... i want to cry that all your statement was valud to me but till this second of time, i just can't to build that

The Great Leader is an ABC: Architect, Bridger, and Catalyst How can we co-create innovations with others

Partnering with suppliers isn't new. The Japanese term is Keiretsu and it is famously part of the Toyota Production System.

Context matters. In order to be a great leader for whom? For customers? Employees? Community? Shareholders? All the leaders Harvard ever produces are groomed for capitalism, to maximize profits by all means necessary with an utter disregard for people and the environment.

Character first

Ok

How long can the internet act as the soil of business until we realize the flowers are looking kinda fake?

Harvard Business school has been studying the trait of Leadership for 50 years and they still have not figured out what it is. All they do is report the most recent buzzwords or some academic theory that happens to catch someone’s attention.

Vivek Ramaswamy

Co-creation is all about relationships.

This is the polar opposite of Japanese companies. No wonder they don't exactly stand out for how innovative and fast they are.

For those who think this is a load of nonsense: Look closely at ASML, one of the most succesfull companies in the world, and you will find a lot of similarities with her words in the way they are organised.

Isn’t leading via co creation what countries have been doing for hundreds of years

Year 2020 results speaks louder than mere words Findings from observations Applied by politicans, civil service, police, military, academia This is what is observed Sequence-sequential effectiveness 假gao2 假kiang3 假利害 假委屈假本事假好人假人假仪

They are just professors. 😅

Too many words to explain that sh!t has to get done. Plain and simple. Just teach kids that work is necessary for survival and for society.

Lauryn who you fooling? I see you!!!

Some faang companies are so political that this is impossible to follow

So it’s racial characteristics?

First courage, to tell the truth! If you are a leader and uncomfortable in your shoes, other's read your facial expression. Next speed in innovation and strategic hiring is devilish. If you have to fire 10% of workforce every year, the CEO should fire himself in his 3rd year as CEO. Eg Late Jack Welch. Competition is insignificant & over-hyped by Consultants. Maximizing shareholder value is the dumbest business idea ever created by Harvard Business School.

🤔 sounds bit manipulative to me 🤔

For one thing they are not female.

Is she Barack Obama??

All buzzwords, 0 substance. God help her students.

One thing in this video is completely wrong - a statement about “formal authority”. Without formal authority innovation can not happen at all in big enterprise. - it is just not possible, nobody will listen to your “great ideas” as nobody need to be engaged in something risky and not approved by leadership. If this lecturer had experience - she would never say this dumb statement that formal authority is not vital.
