Monica Rotner about Solution Focused Leadership live! In today’s episode of our SIMPLY FOCUS podcast, Elfie talks with Monica Rotner, Division Manager of the Community Justice Service in Boulder, about what fascinates Monica with Solution Focus, the differences Solution Focus makes in her daily life as a leader, examples of what she does as a leader and how these enhance co-creating an environment for change. They explore how they co-created a different kind of work environment in her division 8 years ago. Find out how she dealt with unrealistic inputs in the process of co-creating their vision and how she deals with things that cannot be done as they are non-negotionable. Learn how they applied scales and scaling questions to co-create scaling questions to co-create strategies to get from the current reality to the future vision and how they keep the vision a living thing that’s always changing too. Monica knows the importance of walking the talk as a leader and the differences staying curious makes. And check out the weekly challenge: Take a few minutes every day and notice the people around you that are inspiring one tiny little way of doing something different. It might not even be somebody you know. It just could be somebody you see on the street who inspires you. Be observant and look around for people that are role models.
