WHAT I’M ABOUT

I believe it’s time for organizations to step up and reinvent themselves to maximize contribution. Doing that will take True Leadership.

The elephant in the room no one talks about? Many people in leadership positions are not True Leaders. They feel like a fraud, miserable, uninspired, and trapped in their jobs. Many learn to play the game by the rules, but end up playing small. They are faking it, looking out for #1, unhappy, or stressed out. It is the natural consequence of the way companies operate and the way leaders are taught to do things. It is not their fault, it’s the system; but they do have the ability to change things. The alternative will cost everyone – leaders, employees, teams, organizations, and the people they could serve.

True Leaders choose to do things differently. A leader is, by definition, ahead of others; they dream bigger and bring a distinct vision, voice, idea, and perspective into play. They need to be confident, powerful, empathetic, holistic, and creative. They need to believe they can realize their ideas, that their work is worth doing, and enjoy the striving, being both flexible and steadfast. These qualities must be cultivated differently – working from the inside out – to become a mapmaker rather than following the maps created by others. I promise, what lies beneath the surface of you is fascinating; getting to know your interior will be life changing for you.

Let’s turn leadership development on its head. Awaken True Leaders so they can create extraordinary businesses that contributes something unique and meaningful to the world.
