[Henka] Institute
HeadQ – Open and Energising – This is all about being in a positive headspace/energy and suspending judgement, co-creating a path forward with others, supporting others in making trade-offs, and recognising cognitive biases and heuristics in self and others.
HeartQ – Empathy and Connection – This is all about creating a climate of trust and connection, through listening, asking vs. telling, and getting furiously curious for and with others. It’s about seeing things from multiple perspectives, fostering inclusion, and inviting others’ participation. People feel seen and heard.
HungerQ – Purpose, Passion, and Belief – This is all about healthy emotional self-regulation (i.e., passion), having a clear sense of purpose, believing in others, being acutely aware of one’s and others’ strengths, persistently keeping the big picture in mind, and mindfully managing your energy, not merely your time.
HumanSpiritQ – Culture and Identity – This is all about having a deep respect for the human spirit, making values-driven decisions, having the courage and resilience to balance getting things done with developing people, and demonstrating compassion and wisdom.
HenkaQ – Leader as Coach – when leaders bring all the HenkaQs together they become Leaders as Coach. This is about having a deep desire to be furiously curious by passionately having the courage to ask questions for which you do not have the answer. Whatever comes up is used to support others in finding and executing their solutions in alignment with purpose. This includes belief in developing autonomy and creating a safe space at the deepest level possible and connecting with the human being. This means holding off on judging or rejecting to be able to listen and connect. It involves a willingness to be influenced in the pursuit of mastery for self and others.
