Intentional Leadership

Intentional leaders have deep self knowledge and recognise that their strengths come with blind spots. They know that every situation draws on their talents in ways that bring out limitations. They are intentional about identifying any potential problems as best they can. They ask questions like:

• Who will I be leading?
• What will motivate the people I am leading to reach our business goals?
• What defines our environment?
• What emphases and actions on my part will have the greatest positive impact on my team’s performance?
• Where might my style fall short of what is needed in any given situation?

Ask yourself if your focus on leadership is based on career success or is it a calling? Are you doing what you were meant to do? Will you look back and say “I chose wisely”?

Our Intentional Leadership Workshop and Coaching brings this process to life as we guide you in developing your ability to focus on what you need to do to reach specific goals. You’ll learn how to tackle the big questions, such as:

• How can I increase employee engagement when I’m measured on business results?
• How do I coach my employees when I need to evaluate them?
• Why set vision and goals when everything is constantly changing?
• How can I succeed at work and still have time for friends, family, and causes I care about?
• How do I escape the no-time-to-delegate-but-delegating-buys-me-time paradox?
