The Art of Executive Excellence
These times call for a new kind of leadership. One that supports our evolution as individuals, organizations and societies. Leadership with a higher level of awareness. Leadership with a stronger relationship with self and others. Leadership lit by an inspiring, shared vision and a clear, focused strategy. Leadership that knows how to create psychological safety, inclusion and support to enable self, organization and society to tap into the highest levels of productivity, creativity and innovation. Leadership that allows space and balance to do our best work. And leadership that develops exceptional resiliance to deal with the frequency and amplitude of change now commonplace.
2020 has illustrated how much this is needed now. The leadership environment today is significantly more complex and less certain than ever before. With COVID, we have been forced to work virtually, en masse, with little preparation. Constant change is the new normal, leading to chronic change fatigue. The greater context in which we are living and working is triggering anxiety in individuals, organizations and society at large. All of this is impacting work performance and quality of life, limiting our ability to contribute to our fullest potential.
Leadership - Inspired and Transformed
High levels of awareness, enhanced skills, applicable tools and effective practices are required to effectively lead through this unprecedented turbulence with efficiency, sustainability, and whole person health. Our 8-week intensive The Art of Executive Excellence certificate program develops conscious change agents who will make a meaningful impact on individuals, teams, and entire companies as organizational leaders.
