CONSCIOUS LEADERS

"Organisations are rich academies where we learn all the skills and capabilities we need to be powerful leaders and good human beings. However, the missing link is often a clear understanding of leadership impact. Being a conscious leader is about being clear on where you stand so that you can lead more impactfully and empower their teams to unleash their potential"

 

"Give Me a Lever and a Place to Stand, and I can change the world!" Archimedes

By the time we retire at 65, we have spent 29 years of our lives at work. So, when work doesn’t work, it is personal. Therefore, it’s on each of us to take responsibility for how we contribute to whatever challenges arise; and take action.

I’m the “been there, done that” leader who has led both small homogenous teams, and built geographically dispersed teams most recent of which was in CRH PLC, a Fortune 500 company with 78,500 employees and $34.9bn revenue – where I was Global Director of Leadership Development.

Most people read this famous Archimedes quote and focus on the levers, the "how to's" strategies, methodologies to get things done.  And this is a great place to start, but it's seldom what gets the job done. 

I focus on the "place to stand" because I believe that leadership is about who you are being not just what you are doing.  It's your ability to make significant impact in any given moment. And it's about knowing where you stand and what you stand for or against so that others can see you as a role model, a beacon for that possibility. 

This could be a new vision, a personal mission, your core values, the way you make decisions day-by-day, all of these contribute to your way of being. This is the inner GPS which enables others to follow you more effectively. 

Our programmes and tools enable leaders to discover who they need to be to lead powerfully. 

 

And our results speak for themselves. We've enabled leaders to transform their leadership impact, and their teams are achieving unprecedented success. Our clients have reported increased productivity, higher employee retention rates, and increased trust and engagement levels.

Talent Management that Nurtures Emerging Leaders

I got tired of endless sessions in locked rooms arguing over who goes where in the 9-Box. So I developed a more pragmatic, 3 stage approach that creates a culture to nurture and promote talent.
