The Three O Leadership Model, introduced in The Long-Distance Leader: Rules for Remarkable Remote Leadership by Kevin Eikenberry and Wayne Turmel, provides a structured framework for leaders managing teams across multiple locations. This model focuses on three critical components: Outcomes, Others, and Ourselves.
Everything in a multi-unit manager’s role revolves around these three Os. Individually they’re important, but they play off each other. For multi-unit managers the Model offers actionable insights into balancing operational priorities, team relationships, and personal leadership.
In this download, we define The Three O Leadership Model and give examples about how the three Os relate to the multi-unit manager’s role, and within the hospitality sector. It also includes a handy self-assessment for multi-unit managers, which can be used in one-to-one coaching sessions.
