Leadership from Within. Intentional Impact. Positive Ripples.
My leadership philosophy is that true leadership starts from within. In order to influence and make the impact we desire, we must first look at ourselves, understand who we are and develop deep self-awareness.
I take a holistic view of leadership, founded on understanding ourselves and embracing our own human-ness. I help my clients re-connect to who they are, so they know their own values, strengths, intentions and desires.
From self-awareness comes self-leadership, and I help my clients learn how to lead themselves and manage their emotions, mindset and responses.
We can only make intentional impact when we’re fully alert in the driver’s seat of life rather than asleep at the wheel. This means becoming aware of ourselves in order to make conscious choices. I support my clients to become deliberate about the impact they have on themselves and others.
How we show up in the world affects everyone around us. When we choose to lead intentionally from within, we create a positive ripple effect on people in our immediate circle and beyond.
I believe leadership and business can be forces for good, when they’re carried out with heart and on purpose. It’s time to let go of the old way of doing things. Lead yourself from within, so you can make the impact you desire.
I believe:
If you don’t love leading people, you shouldn’t be in a leadership role. Period. Great leaders truly desire to help their people be their best.
Logic alone is over-rated. Tune in to all your sources of intelligence, in your head, your heart and your gut.
“Do as I say, not as I do” is not a valid leadership model. Great leadership starts with leading yourself.
You create a ripple effect around you. Small things make a big difference, so make your words and actions count. When you show up at your best, we all benefit.
Ego is not a wise leader. We’re all humans, learning together. Be kind, be compassionate, be humble.
You are the most important person in your life. Self-care is a foundation for success, not an optional afterthought.
Your happiness is your responsibility and your choice. Choose to create happiness from within, regardless of your circumstances.
You don’t exist in two dimensions. You are a whole person and your home and work life are inevitably intertwined. Know yourself and be in integrity with your whole self.
What you eat affects how you lead. Your food choices influence your success as well as your wellbeing. Nourish yourself to flourish.
Knowing something doesn’t make you wise. Put your knowledge into action by doing, repeating, and refining.
