CCC Leadership Framework

CCC Leadership Framework is a way of understanding the capabilities leaders need for themselves, their teams and their entire organization.
The bottom half of the framework highlights the foundational capabilities necessary for a healthy organization. These capabilities focus on the people within the organization.
CULTIVATING is consciously tending to the culture of the organization. What are the norms regarding, for example, communications, time, conflict, accountability, dress code and decision-making. Each practice can either encourage or inhibit CONNECTING (developing relationships with candor and authenticity)  and DEVELOPING (fostering a climate of ongoing reflection, experimentation and adaptation).
The top half emphasizes capabilities that support the continuous evolution of the organization in the desired direction. These capabilities focus on the impact of the organization in the world5.
VISIONING defines what you and your organization are trying to accomplish now and in the future. What impact do you want to have on the world? What values do you need to cultivate to get there?
Realizing VISION requires balancing INNOVATING with STEWARDING- Stewarding is caring for yourself, your team, your colleagues, as well as caring for the financial and capital resources of the organization.  Innovating is responding creatively to new information, opportunities and challenges in your environment and making changes accordingly. A balance between the two prevents stagnation at one extreme and continuous disruption at the other.
