Session Leadership: It's all on you, but it's not about you
How do you show up as a transformational leader? What perspectives shape the outcomes of your transformation efforts? What stories and experiences drive your behaviour and define your unique leadership style?
A transformational leader embraces the role of a change catalyst. We are in the business of humanising work, where people are complex and bring their own stories and challenges. These personal narratives shape how we observe, think, understand, and act.
In this talk, Chris will share a case study of a leadership team and their journey of transforming themselves first, unlocking their creative competencies so they could transform their business and modernise their ways of working.
He will share how he helped the leaders develop greater self-awareness. This enabled the leaders to shift into conscious leadership, hold a vision that transcends conventional boundaries, and be open to personal transformation in pursuit of that vision.
