Areas of Leadership


Understanding yourself

All leadership begins and starts with understanding the psychological make up and hardwired DNA of understanding yourself. Self awareness is core and key to understanding your leadership motivation.


leading change

Kodak, Blockbuster and the church of Ephesus all faded away. Why? They didn’t change. Leadership didn’t know how institutionalize their personal mission into organizational mission. Leading change is hard and we can show you how to do it.



Understanding others

Not all people are the same. Understanding others hardwired motivation is vastly important in leading individuals and organizational culture. Understanding who to lead and who not to lead is vital.


marriage & family

The most fundamental institution you will lead is your marriage and your family. Interpersonal relationships in marriage and family are the foundation for a happy life. If you love well, you will lead well and you will live well.



communicating to motivate

Have you noticed that not everyone hears something the same way? That’s because certain words, inflections, body language and tone are all communication forms. Knowing that combination is leadership equity.


conflict MANAGEMENT

You can’t have movement without conflict. Though conflict reimagined is not a fight it’s a conversation. Understanding what people do and how to talk to them in conflict creates a multi-demensional leader.


 
 
 
Leaders do four things: understand themselves, understand others, communicate to motivate and lead change.
