Definition of Sustainability
  • Achieving an organizational state where programs
    and services are continually provided because
    they have perceived value and receive adequate
    financial support

The Role of the Leader
  • Part 1

8
What it takes
Collaborative
Leadership
that takes action to position for sustainability
9
But if I focus on making sure we have great
results, wont support show up?
Not necessarily. It might take too long to find
support at the end of your program.especially if
few people are aware of your efforts and progress
along the way.
10
We have a plan to follow. Thats my job to
execute the work plan.
Ultimately your job is about creating a
successful, enduring program. If planning for
sustainability wasnt a part of your original
plan, change the plan. Invest your time in
leading.
11
I (We) can do this myself (ourselves). Involving
a lot of people will slow us down.
Unless you are going to fund the program
yourself, recognize that inviting and involving
others is critical to gathering ideas and making
connections with influencers.
12
Weve been funded by the same grant for multiple
years. Why worry? Seems like were in.
In todays climate of accountability and results,
nothing can be taken for granted. Most funders
want to provide starter funds and see if the
program can sustain itself. Can you?

KEY REsults of a Collaborative Leader
  • Part 2

17
Results of a Collaborative Leader
Ensure Knowledge of Program
18
Result 1 Ensure Knowledge of Program
  • A county commissioner hears from a constituent
    about the success of your program in finding
    cost-saving ways to share resources. At the
    Rotary Club meeting, the commissioner sees the
    director of HR at your hospital (who isnt
    involved in the program) and mentions hearing
    about the programs success. Your HR director
    looks surprised and responds that hes not sure
    who is involved with that program.

19
Result 1 Ensure Knowledge of Program
  • Make yourself known
  • Build ownership
  • Equip everyone with key information and key
    messages

Examples Co-workers in the facility recognize
the program name and activities and associate you
with the program. Organization leaders can
describe the program and status of the programs
objectives.
20
Result 1 Ensure Knowledge of Program
  • Make yourself known
  • Build ownership
  • Equip everyone with key information and key
    messages

Examples Co-workers in the organization refer to
the program as our program, not your
program. People in your organization ask about
the latest results and stories of success.
21
Result 1 Ensure Knowledge of Program
  • Make yourself known
  • Build ownership
  • Equip everyone with key information and key
    messages

Examples Co-workers in the organization can
share the programs primary goal and major
activities. Key points about the program are
included in organizational newsletters, speeches,
Web site, etc.
22
  • React!
  • Using text function, type a message to the
    webinar facilitator that includes the position
    title of two people in your own organization that
    need to have greater knowledge of your program.

23
Results of a Collaborative Leader
Create Interdependence
24
Result 2 Create Interdependence
Independence
Interdependence
vs.
  • Go it alone.
  • Our program is (better, more important, higher
    priority, etc.) and deserves to be sustained.

Go it together. Our program plays a critical role
in the network of services in this community.
25
Result 2 Create Interdependence
Why Interdependence Works
  • Highlights the value of others efforts and
    builds goodwill
  • Creates a demand/need for your service or product
  • Makes it easier to have your program exist than
    not (and thus easier to support)

26
  • React!
  • Using the voting function on the webinar, choose
    the one action your program team already does
    well to create interdependence.
  • A. utilize quality resources of others
  • B. share ideas and information with others
  • C. share staff, tools, and resources with others
  • D. collaboratively plan, advocate, and review

27
Results of a Collaborative Leader
28
Result 3 Grow Influence
Identify Opportunities
Share Expertise or Resources
Connect to Additional Leaders
  • Influence occurs when civic, business, and
    political leaders in your community know about
    and support your program.

29
Result 3 Grow Influence
  • Inform
  • Invite
  • To share knowledge
  • To participate
  • To experience
  • Involve
  • As advisor
  • As advocate
  • Remember
  • Metaphor - Millionaires hang out with
    millionaires
  • Dont ask if you dont mean it better not to ask
    at all.

30
  • React!
  • Using text function, send a message to webinar
    facilitator that shares an example of how you
    have informed, invited, or involved an
    influential leader in your community (not part of
    your consortium).
