The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership: A New Paradigm for Sustainable Success

Youll never see leadership the same way again after reading this book.These fifteen commitments are a distillation of decades of work with CEOs and other leaders. They are radical or provocative for many. They have been game changers for us and for our clients. We trust that they will be for you too.Our experience is that unconscious leadership is not sustainable. It wont work for you, your team or your organization in the long term. Unconscious leadership can deliver short term results, but the costs of living and leading unconsciously are great.Fear drives most leaders to make choices that are at odds with healthy relationships, vitality and balance. This fear leaves a toxic residue that wont be as easily tolerated in an increasingly complex business environment.Conscious leadership offers the antidote to fear. These pages contain a comprehensive road map to guide you to shift from fear-based to trust-based leadership. Once you learn and start practicing conscious leadership youll get results in the form of more energy, clarity, focus and healthier relationships. Youll do more and more of what you are passionate about, and less of what you do out of obligation. Youll have more fun, be happier, experience less drama and be more on purpose. Your team will get results as well. Theyll be more collaborative, creative, energized and engaged. Theyll solve issues faster, and once resolved the issues wont resurface. Drama and gossip will all but disappear, and the energy and resources that fueled them will be redirected towards innovation and creativity.Any one of these commitments will change your life. All of them together are revolutionary.
