More about Kasam Family

Self-leadership means directing your thoughts and behaviors towards goals (Byrant & Kazan 2012). Self-leadership involves an understanding of the current situation, the desired situation, and what you can do to get there. Understanding what needs to be done (sensitivity and competence), prioritizing the order in which it should be done (prioritization work), and ensuring that you have good conditions to do it (responsibility). Self-leadership creates more employees than managers, and in that way, employees have less leadership. Employees are increasingly expected to plan their work and time without input from their managers. Employees are expected to see what needs to be done and make their own decisions. There is less management (leadership) and a greater need for leadership. Managers must adhere to and communicate "the big picture/core values" while employees must take more responsibility for actually leading themselves.

Self-leadership places completely different demands on operational management. How power and responsibility are distributed, how to communicate about assignments and the purpose of the business, etc.

"If you can't lead yourself, no one else can either".

We are brave enough to demand from our surroundings (colleagues, clients, families/foster families, external contacts, partners) in order to create conditions to meet the child's needs. We are brave enough to take responsibility for what is difficult and brave enough to ask for help when needed. Bravery for us is colleagues who take initiative and act on their own.
