How do people experience you as a leader? Do you live up to the superhero-like expectations others place on you? For most of us, the honest answer is no – and that’s because we are human beings having a leadership experience.
That experience is unfolding against a backdrop of relentless pace, complex change and shifting demands from every direction.
This keynote draws on philosophy, neuroscience and pragmatism to explore a refreshed view of leadership. One that favours relationships over tasks, intention over reaction, and being over doing.
The session will cover:
- Why the twin trends of uncertainty and meaning make leadership difficult
- The three ‘worlds’ from which we operate and how this drives our leadership effectiveness
- How equanimity helps us deal with relentless reactivity
- Practical strategies to shepherd our attention and awareness
You’ll walk away with:
- Insight into the hidden forces that shape how you lead
- A more sustainable way to show up amidst uncertainty and complexity
- Tools to lead with greater presence and impact
- A reminder that leadership is not about being superhuman – it’s about being more human
