Synopsis

Following on from the success of Mr Badger Moves Home this second book in the series looks at the challenge that leaders face when they want to empower both teams and individuals to fully exercise their judgement. With the use of an engaging account between Badger and Owl, the book explores why individuals often find empowerment a worrying concept and what simple steps can be taken by leaders to encourage their people to execute the same sort of judgment calls that they routinely make in their lives outside of work.This time we join Badger in his rooms pondering why he can’t persuade any of his associates to take the shortcut home from the Churton Arms. Badger reached into a small bowl beside him and dexterously hooked a snail from its shell. He tossed it in the air and, with a practised action, swallowed it with a single gulp. “Do you know,” he said. “That every morning when we come back from the Churton Arms, after a good night out, I say to my pals, Why do we have to walk right around Five Acre Field, use our old paths and then wind our way up the sides of the fields here to the new den every night? It seems to me”, I say. “That we could very easily just cut across the Five Acre Field, squeeze through the hedge, cross the lane, and be here an hour earlier, getting ourselves some decent bedding and food for the day.”This time Owl, the coach, uses language and ideas from neuroscience, complexity theory and transactional analysis to explore why Badger can’t persuade his colleagues to change their ways and encourages Badger to develop a coaching style to encourage his associates to learn how keeps themselves safe whilst exploring more efficient ways to get home.
