Ethics, integrity, consciousness

Integral Leadership

Corporate leaders with their global reach have the opportunity to be a force for good in the world.  Purpose in business is sought out by the new generation of employees, care of people and concern for planet are the requirements of top talent.

Future success will only be possible if each and every leader is willing to go through the same shift in mindset and an opening of their heart as they are asking of their people.

 

Conscious and ethical business leaders are the ones who are willing to self-examine, to have the difficult conversations with themselves and others in order to develop new qualities and behaviours necessary to enable the company to evolve.

As consciousness shifts so too does competence, establishing a higher level of effectiveness across the business.

 

WHAT I DO

From decades of experience in the business world, I have come to understand it’s not simplicity that is the solution to complexity, but diversity.  Diversity is an antidote to the complexity we face today and inclusion is one of the solutions to the problems that confront us.

I support business leaders and their teams in developing the necessary qualities, strengths and leadership skills to build a life enhancing and sustainable organisation.  This requires utilsing the talent and potential of all people in the organisation, creating cultures where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.

This is a whole person leadership approach: we know that the personal is the professional and one profoundly affects the other.

Leading with

Grace & Resilience

The qualities of Grace and Resilience enable women, who are seeking to make a difference in their leadership or to take a stand in the world, to hold their power, maintain presence and retain their grace, even in the most difficult of circumstances.

Grace is the quality that enables us to pause, to listen, to use one’s inner wisdom, intuition and insight to what is emerging and provide what is needed in any given moment to achieve the best possible outcome.

Resilience holds the qualities of courage, confidence, strength and staying power that is required to consciously remain true to our stand in the world and bring the best of ourselves to any situation, even in the face of adversity and setback.
