Abstract
This interactive workshop grounded in the principles of He Tángata (leading and working in the service of people, whanau, and the community), and Manaakitanga (respecting and caring for the people, whanau, and the community and listening to and involving them in our leadership) is designed to help educational leaders integrate leadership communications with the ability to reframe organizations. Specifically, the workshop is a hands-on application of three published manuscripts that take participants thorough the process of engaging in the Four-Frames of Reframing Organizations (Bolman & Deal, 2021) with Motivating Language Theory (Mayfield & Mayfield, 2018) so that leaders:
- Can use an integrated framework for connecting the Four Frames and Motivating Language Theory
- Can implement a leadership script to reframe organizational problems into solutions with leadership actions and communications
- Can use a framework connecting Kotter’s Change Model with the Four Frames and Motivating Language Theory
- Can implement a leadership decision-making sequence connecting the Four Frames and Motivating Language Theory (Holmes & Scull, 2019; Holmes, 2023; Holmes, 2024)
- Can see the frameworks and resources provided through key Mãori principles.
