inspiring and enlightening in exploring and modernizing the work and art of
leading, as an organizational form in structuring working processes in new and alternative
ways. The intention with this mind setting impulse is to share a thought about
application and usage of the fast growing dynamics among employees, which in
its essence represents exceeding demands and expectations of change in the
mindset of how humans are working and leading themselves and others. The role
of leading in the New Workplace Reality will signify <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Equal Dignity</span></b> and <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Mutuality</span></b>
as core and key factors within the relationships between individual human
beings in the workplace.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The working life of today is highly demanding for
most of the employees in the working force. A counterbalance of an increasing
demanding working life, is that more and more of the workers will be demanding
a change in the traditional settings of structuring and organizing the
workplace. The individual employee and the workforce as a collective power,
will be requesting and expecting a working situation where the individual human
being will be entitled to gain personal control over one owns work and working
conditions, based on shared equality and mutuality.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB"><u></u>�<u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The �demanding� employee will in a lesser
and lesser degree be relating to superior authorities as loyal and subservient
subordinates, but in stead be seeking relationships with people that possess
complementary and supplementary competencies (despite the position and rank the
person might occupy in the organization). These consciousness workers will more
and more search for workplaces that can provide 100 % independence (freedom)
and responsibility (trust) as core values for themselves, in stead of being
forced in turning to superior authorities for the making of necessary decisions
concerning their processing of work. The employees need of having personal
freedom to make own decisions and being trusted the responsibility in taking
care of an individual part of work, will more and more emerge as one of the
most valuable assets in modern work life for the individual human person.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB"><u></u>�<u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The claims from the workers towards the working
society will embody a transfer of the power (the authority to make decisions)
from superior authorities outside the individual person to the personal
authority within the individual. This type of organizing of the workplace will
be based upon the willpower and abilities embedded inside the individual human
being, in taking independent and responsible decisions within ones own area of
work in concert with equals.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The vision behind this type of organizing the working
processes, is that the power will be distributed on basis of the person, and
not on the position. This structuring of power will confirm and secure that
decisions are made on the basis of competence, and will consequently counteract
decisions made on the basis of position and rank. Decisions made primarily on
basis of position without sufficient and adequate competence, have in numerous
of cases within the private and public sector of working life resulted in
serious miscalculations and wrongdoings. Such misjudgements can easily end up
dramatically and have fatal discrediting impacts on the legitimacy of the
corporation in society. A competence-based organization will ensure the quality
of the decision processes and not at least contribute to the keeping of
qualified and competent employees. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The New Workplace Reality which is based on
competence <font color="navy"><span style="color: navy;">in </span></font>the
performance of leading at work, will by its essence exercise a significant
attraction of power towards workers that are looking for individual freedom and
mutual trust as the prime source in unfolding and unlashing their personalities
together with others. The cooperation and interaction between the individuals
on equal footing, will inevitably result in a natural realization of their own
and others achievements, efforts and performances at work. Personal ability and
capability appears as a manifestation of the interface between the factors
�effort� and �performance�, where the arrangement of
this interactive collaborative force is quite decisive for the ultimate result
of the processing of work. Not at least can this way of structuring the
processes of decision making and the work of leading, be preferred by the
demanding generation of employees that will be dominating the workforce in the
near future. When people will be entitled freedom and trust and that personal
responsibility is ruled and governed through individual competence and inner
authority, the individual human being will gain a natural disposition for this
kind of workplace. The nature<font color="navy"><span style="color: navy;"> </span></font>of
Leadingship implies that the employees must be responsible for their own
judgements and decisions. The person must <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">TAKE</span></b>
responsibility for the processing of one owns work and the consequences of the
result of the work. There will be will none who are ready to <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">GIVE</span></b> others responsibility for the work,
and in that sense no one can take the credit or the blame for the result of
others.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB">The Workplace with Balanced Relationships where
everyone are sharing equal value and worth, will have a need for people that
are used to take responsibility for themselves and others. It takes time to
transform the culture of the organization from the traditional structuring of
power (with superiors and subordinates) to a structuring of power where everyone
are entitled equal worthiness regarding personal freedom and mutual trust. It
takes time to enable people to function, act and perform as equal members of
the working community. People can only enable themselves in doing the work as
sovereign individuals through a belief system that creates consciousness about
the rights to act and behaves as peers, with the profound understanding that <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">the work and art of leading is to lead processes and
not persons.</span></b> When the awareness and understanding about this way of
structuring power and organizing the work of leading have matured in the minds
of the people, the results of this mind setting will be sustainable in the way
we perceive and conceive our sense of honour and responsibility at work.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
