Leading others is the same as leading yourself. Actually, leading others cannot be better than leading yourself. That's why Innerwealth Self Leadership is the key to great business leadership.
Lets start from what you already know from the Innerwealth Coaching Programme.
You know that people don't change. That there's nothing wrong with anyone only something to love more. You know this. So if people don't change, how do you change behaviour? Well, the answer proves itself. You change behaviour, yours and others, by linking what a person wants to what they are doing. If they want a new lawnmower then you link (job task) - painting the bathroom - to the lawn mower and leave them to paint. Of course, values come into play. You can link their task to their highest value and really make an impact. You may have learnt this in the linking exercise during your program, so, please don't try doing this to others until you've mastered it for yourself.
This creates self leadership.... getting what you want from what you're doing no matter what it is you're doing. When you get this for yourself, you'll be free to share it with others.
We call this "Inspiration" - keeping ourselves and others engaged.
But leadership is something different.
Leadership is linking what you are doing to something bigger than yourself. For example, beyond your personal values and fears, to a purpose greater than you, a higher purpose.
It works the same for leading others too. When you can link what someone is doing (job tasks) to what you are leading people toward, you get visionary leadership.
Here's an example: Walking in Nepal I can say to the group, "I know each and every one of you is keen to arrive at the top today, it will be hard (downside) but at the top there's a great lodge with the best dinner in the mountains. Now I linked the task ahead to the vision of the individual. We're all inspired. But if I leave it there, each person operates as an individual and will not co-operate nor follow any instructions that might be more beneficial for the group. So, I need to say this "beyond today, beyond these mountains is the ability to make a difference to the world as a group. By the group achieving day by day the climb to the summit, we will as a team, be contributing to something greater."

WHY A TOTAL HUMAN AWARENESS VISION MAKES A DIFFERENCE

It is all too easy to consider the idea of gratitude for life and not act. Action is reciprocated. If you treat people badly - put them down or diminish them, if you put yourself before the welfare of others you will, for what it's called, Karma, create a nightmare that is not comprehendible. By doing discard you can release those nightmares but the best way to deal with them is be kind. Generosity, Kindness, Appreciation and Compassion are the filters through which we all need to act and in doing so, we multiply our lives in huge steps.
Manifestation doesn't happen in a bubble. You need others and if they don't like you, they will fail you. Use these four words to filter your voice, your thoughts, your actions and behaviours toward others and it will pay you back in huge degrees. |
Show your thankfulness for your life and learning by offering to share it.

It’s 8:30pm. The lights are out the kids are asleep. One lonely porch light is on. Once again Bob is late home. it’s just so difficult to get away from the office before 8.00pm. It’s the 4th night this week that he’s arrived home this late. He leans forward, turns off the Porsche and sits contemplating the day. There’s a slight haze in the air, a late night fog rolling in from the ocean. The windows of the car soon mist over, there’s an eirie silence. “I used dream of owning my own business. All I’ve achieved is moving from eight hour days to twelve. I used to jump out of bed and really look forward to going to work. Now it’s a chore. Sometimes I wonder why I even keep the business. I could just see myself sitting on a desert island eating pineapples and coconuts, drinking tequila and living off the land with the whole family. Surely, it would have to be better than this? From the moment I get to work it’s go, go, go, I rush around fixing things and keeping everything going. If I stop the whole place stops. I’ve been so busy, back to back, that business plan is still in the computer half done, the new product launch is behind schedule and I’ve lost touch with most of my clients. Wendy, the accounts manager, resigned today. She’s going to travel overseas for 6 months. She actually wants leave of absence, but what do I do? And I need to make a decision about David. It was only 6 months ago that he got the last raise and now he wants more. He’s on commission with a car and an annual holiday up to Club Med in Bali. I know he is good but ....………… The good news is David Green - ringing out of the blue. Imagine that , we’ve been browned off with each other for years and the very time when I’m in the black he rings with his company in the Red. White & co. (my number 1 competitor). Unbelievable, I’m in the pink, he wants to sell. Ten years I’ve waited for this. Unreal, there’s an opportunity if ever there was one. I can use some staff, merge the two factories, draw in their client base and I’ll become number one in Australia. Now there’s one decision that has no downside. But why am I so tired… I need a break. It’s been 8 months since I took time off. I’m pooped. Tomorrow morning I’m going to start back at the gym and do weights. I’m 44 soon, I need to focus on getting back in shape. That will get me back in the mood. It may even get rid of these little shakes I’m getting. Must be lack of sleep. Anyway time to face the music. One thing for sure it’s great to have such a beautiful family. Bob, steps out of the car, stretches his aching back, grabs the brief case from the back seat and heads inside to have a reheated dinner. They say that management consulting is when somebody hands you their watch and you charge them to tell them the time. Here’s your chance to test your skills. |
