You lead your company. Your team. Your life. It’s all good… Except when it’s not. You didn’t get to where you are today without some really good effective leadership skills… Though maybe you did. You’ve earned and been appointed “partner”, “founder”, “leader”, “manager”, “director”, pick your title – you’re in it… You are it.

If you’re familiar at all with my work or my stance, you’ll know that I’m a stand for leadership and that I get to work with some of the most innovative companies and business leaders in helping them create more effective leadership and impact in the world. You’ll also know, that words like “self-care”, “energy”, “presence”, and “authenticity” infiltrate all things leadership in my book.

When I work with clients I’ll often ask them to take regular “white space” for themselves. This white space is open, reflection and self-care time. It’s time to think and be. To consider what they’re doing and who they’re becoming. To be Present. To Vision. Dream. Breathe. That’s it. This is precious space. I also ask that they have a physical practice of some kind.

What impact do you want to create in the world? Do this to do that. This is not a question to be brushed over. Yet maybe my shortest blog post ever. Think about that question. What do you stand for? What impact will your leadership create? You have something you want to be different in the world. You have something that can bring you to tears because it’s NOT that way yet.

Last August I decided to put myself through my program. A lot had evolved in the model over the last 18 months and I was feeling the urge for an intentional reboot. I called it my own personal “7 week leadership experiment” After all, if I fully engaged in my stuff, and walked my talk, what could I create? I knew 2013 would be a big year for this work given some of the things I’d put in motion, and I wanted to go in fully aware and congruent.My business, life, relationships, an

'I get questions from subscribers and participants all the time about random things that relate to leadership, presence, energy, collaboration, dealing with their mom, changing something that they’re afraid to change, etc. All sorts of Q’s. I try to respond to every single one. Sometimes these Qs inspire articles. Sometimes an exercise. Sometimes a post.

'In my work with business leaders and their organizations, the majority of them want to avoid “hierarchy” in the organization in as many ways as possible. Many of them are highly successful at doing so. They set structures in place to create more of a “flat” organization, they get clear on organizational values, and they get very intentional about the culture they want to create.

'I was recently interviewed for an article about creating better cultures. A study had been done looking at how companies actually view the importance of culture and what they actually do about it… View vs. do… There is often a gap. The interviewee came up with 10 collective tips on how to bridge the gaps mentioned in the study, mine was number 5.

A friend of mine, having just released an inspiring and best selling book, is getting all sorts of flack, for all sorts of reasons. Most of them dark, none of them exactly life affirming or making her want to put herself out there more. A client of mine, who’s just launched a fantastic initiative, is learning that a whole new set of “people problems” come from being successful.
