Leadership Transformations
In my previous insight I started the discussion around spiritual intelligence. Let’s pick things up where we left of and continue with the journey into spiritual intelligence by focusing on connecting with the Divine…
Recently, I had a quick chat with someone over lunch time that indicated they were reading an interesting book about coaching. His qualifying statement was that it was good because it was not spiritual. Continue reading “Connection with the Divine”
When the apple fell on Newton’s head and all of us started to follow his teachings we created the faith of materialism. What we can see is real. We went from worshiping many gods, to worshiping one God, to worshiping material things. As the new world view inspired by the reconciliation of quantum and Newtonian physics is starting to influence our daily lives we need to activate our spiritual intelligence to lead.
We are born with multiple intelligences, not just Continue reading “What is Spiritual Intelligence?”
In my role as coach I tend to focus on reflection and insight. I help individuals and leaders gain perspective in their life so that they can rejuvenate their focus and energy. It is a shift away from urgency addiction. Renewed focus and energy ultimately leads to greater results. It is not about creating more goals and targets, but taking a pause and Continue reading “Urgency Addiction”
Over the last 16 years or so I have worked with various CEO’s in various industries. Some of them were at the helm of large corporates and others were pioneers of disruptive technology.

There is a story that is your story. It is the story of perseverance, dedication and excellence. It is the story of suffering, pain and rejection. It is the story of not being enough.

A few years ago I realised that in order to keep my faith and my marriage in tact I needed to get out of the institutional church. I love God and my wife and in that order those are the two most important relationships in my life.

Before I continue I want to make it very clear that I write out of a position of disappointment and sadness, not anger. Continue reading “Why I had to Leave the Church to Save my Faith and Marriage”
Leadership is dead! Long live followership! I’ll bet that if you Google leadership books, courses, resources, etc. you will be overwhelmed with tips, tricks, styles and strategies of becoming a better leader. I don’t doubt that many of those things will help in various ways, but I want to ask you something today: is there something such as leadership or is it just a by-product of following?

I have a secret. It is a secret as old as time. It is the secret of human need. It is the secret that no one teaches you about, because few have the intelligence to take you on a journey to the heart of your being. It is the secret of Continue reading “Answer this Need and Change Your Life”
One of the greatest compliments I have ever gotten is one of the compliments I have overlooked for a long time. It wasn’t until recently that I realised that this overlooked compliment is part of my super power. Now, my dear friend, I can see the question mark on your forehead. Let me share this simple little insight. Continue reading “Just Share the Passion”
