2012 LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT GUIDE YMCA OF METRO CHICAGO

2

LEARN GROW CHANGELeadership Development is an intentional effort to provide leaders with opportunities to Learn, Grow and Change. A focus of the Y of Metro Chicago is to develop staff’s unique abilities and talents. We do this by helping individuals learn about themselves and others, grow in their personal skills and abilities, and change and adapt to new circumstances and opportunities.

The intent of this Leadership Development Guide is to assist supervisors and staff on how to create a leadership development plan. By encouraging crucial conversations between staff and supervisor, providing guidelines around training requirements and opportunities, and introducing YMCA of the USA’s (Y-USA) tools and resources, the Guide will help produce individuals, over time, with the skills to function effectively within our association and the YMCA movement in general. By working together, Metro Chicago will have a strong leadership pipeline full of cause-driven leaders who are committed to impactful, lasting personal and social change through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.

Y-USA TRAINING INFORMATION

In an effort to develop cause-driven leadership at all staff levels across the Y, YMCA of the USA (Y-USA) has developed the cause-driven Leadership Competency Model (LCM). The YMCA of Metro Chicago has adopted this model. This model is the foundation for designing all leadership development strategies and tactics in the Y.

The Leadership Competency Model is:

• Comprised of 18 Leadership Competencies

• Organized by the four disciplines of cause-driven leadership• MissionAdvancement – Advancing the Y’s

promise to strengthen community• Collaboration – Working with, understanding,

and developing others• OperationalEffectiveness – Ensuring relevance,

effectiveness, and sustainability• PersonalGrowth – Developing continually to

adapt to new challenges

• Organized into four leadership levels• Leader• Team Leader• Multi-Team/Branch Leader• Organizational Leader

The four Leadership Levels within the LCM represent the progressive leadership responsibilities across all staff positions. In addition, the Leadership Certification aligns with these levels, and is achieved when staff completes the certificationrequirements.Staffshouldfocusonachievingthecertificationlevelthatalignswiththeircurrentleadershiplevel.Forstaffwhohaveachievedthatcertificationlevel,andaresuccessfulintheircurrentrole,andanticipatecontinuingtogrowtheircareerattheYinthenearfuture,itmaybeappropriatetobeginpursuingthenextcertification(develop competencies) at the next level.

70/20/10 LEARNING MODELThe central theme behind developing Leadership Competencies focuses on identifying areas for change and creating opportunities to practice new skills. Foundational to this process is the 70/20/10 Learning Model.

Seventy percent (70%) of learning and development takes place from real-life, challenging on-the-job experiences, tasks, and problem solving.

Twenty percent (20%) of learning and development comes from coaching, feedback, and observing and working with role models.

Ten percent (10%) of learning and development comes from formal training.

The 70/20/10 Learning Model is embedded into the courseworkandrecertificationprocessoftheLeadershipCertification.Pleaseseebelowforsomeexamplesofhowa 70/20/10 Learning Model can be incorporated into an Individual Development Plan. Please reference this Model when completing your Individual Leadership Development Plan.
