Responsibility Redefined™, the only how-to approach in the world for taking and teaching personal responsibility. Christopher's research shows how your mind processes thoughts about avoiding or taking responsibility either keeping you stuck or propelling you forward to your goals. Responsibility - it's not just a burden anymore Grow. Learn. Lead. Teach. Parent. Succeed.

How One Responsible Leader's Calling Has Already Saved almost 800 Infants from Drowning: My Interview with Dr. Harvey Barnett, Founder of Infant Swim Resource. The life story of a calling to responsible leadership: Harvey Barnett was horrified as a teenager (and a lifeguard) by senseless infant drownings he witnessed. Young Harvey began a continuing 44-year quest to teach infants how to save themselves when they fall into the backyard pool -- and to teach parents to take responsibility to prevent infant drowning, the #1 cause of accidental death among infants. To date, 178,000 infants have been trained. There are 780 documented cases of "self rescue" and zero drownings among these students.

This was an energizing show. Questions addressed on this segment: Q: How do I recognize its my responsibility when it doesn't look that way and I want to blame someone else for the problem? Q: Some people (me sometimes) feel the ownership of some domain (in business, technology, etc.) in an exclusive way, so they don't allow other people to take responsibility. What would be a correct thing to do? Q: Procrastination is one of the biggest obstacles that we have to overcome to take 100% ownership. What is your advice on fighting against it? Q: What about project managers or scrum masters who can't give up control? Micromanage? Criticize in public? Get hostile in tone when things don't go their way? How do you diffuse this type of person and allow one to be 100 % responsible for our work? Q: How do you get past the rationalization (Justify) during an accountability session (i.e., what went wrong) and get to more of a Responsibility space? We are very good at rationalizing, that is understand why something went wrong, but we kind of get stuck there. Q: Given the mental and emotional issues that affect weight loss, can the Responsibility Process be used to aid in successful achievement and maintenance of healthy weight loss? Q: I am starting a new job in a few weeks at a large fortune 500 company. There is new upper management recently in place (board level). The "old" charismatic leader started some key programs. These programs are currently under assessment, but as the new regime lifts the rocks, they are seeing that it's ugly underneath. I will be on an existing program that has two diverse camps - one that wants to stop and reassess (one customer is a 60% stakeholder and claims he "doesn't want the program, it doesn't meet his needs) and then there is the other camp that is driving the project to try to be completed (in 2010/2011). As a new leader in this organization, what advise would you give me.

"In-Abling" a Family to Be Safer Around the Water. On "Beyond Obligation" I interview my heroes -- each an individual who confronted a reality no one else would or could face, and changed the world for the rest of us. I interviewed Dr. Barnett in February 2009 about his responsibility as a leader. In this episode we'll focus on you and the infants and pools in your life. We'll be pointing you to videos and other resources Barnett created to prevent infant drowning. With a Ph.D. and 43 years experience, Barnett developed the first and only drowning prevention strategy that has earned a 100% safety record. ISR is a truly comprehensive infant swimming education and self-rescue skill instruction method that is well established in the fields of health care, psychology/behavioral sciences, anatomy and physiology. Since 1966, ISR has safely delivered over 7 million lessons to teach water self-rescue skills to more than 177,224 babies and has educated parents and medical experts nationwide on water safety techniques and proven instruction methods. To date, ISR has 788 documented cases of children using ISR techniques to save themselves from drowning. Read more at http://www.infantswim.com

Ask Christopher anything about how personal and shared responsibility works in the mind, and more specifically, how you can take responsibility to lead, team, succeed, and also to teach responsibility to others.
