OML Hosts SGR's 4th Dimention Leadership Workshop

December 5, 2017

The Oklahoma Municipal League hosted Strategic Government Resources (SGR) on Wednesday, November, 29th for the 4th Dimension Leadership workshop. The workshop was a one-day leadership class taught by Dr. Mike Mowery, SGR, President of Servant Leadership Implementation.

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast” by Peter Drucker, was one of the quotes Dr. Mowery gave the class. The workshop was designed to teach how to create the kind of culture you desire. The class learned about creating a servant leadership culture, the importance of listening, building community, healing, and stewardship. Dr. Mowery discussed these concepts and had the class members discuss the topics with each other as a group.

Prior to the workshop each attendee completed an I-OPT (Input-Output Processing Template). The I-OPT is a scientific questionnaire that reveals personal strategic styles. Everyone received their analysis report and Dr. Mowery went over the different personality traits and explained how the results of the I-OPT can be a useful tool for leaders in getting to know themselves better and how it can be used in a positive manner to better understand employees and how teams work best together.
