Just Like You
We have been overwhelmed with the everyday challenges of leading organisations. We’ve been frustrated by the constant flow of the external pressures to perform and internal pressures that leave us exhausted. When left unchecked, these pressures eroded our ability to lead well.
We have experienced our own personal leadership deficits. We have felt the absence of joy in leading people. We have experienced how a foggy vision leaves us and our followers lost. We have looked to a multitude of development courses, personal assessments, and mentoring relationships. While all of these are good, nothing has forged a foundation from which we can confidently lead with authenticity and see lasting results.
