Awareness: The Leaders True Power
When you work in high pressure and demanding job it’s easy to be
overwhelmed so that your total focus is on the problem at hand
and become ignorant on what truly is happening around you.
It’s a question you ask yourself: “Am I being problem
conscious or solution conscious?”
You cannot solve any problem while focusing on the
problem. That switch in your thinking is the beginning of
finding your solution.
The question is an activation process. What follows is not
necessarily easy or simple. So what’s it worth to solve it?
Hope is not a strategy. Right action is. Leaders who focus on
potential solutions help their teams to find the right actions.
If you think about it, failure is not the problem, quitting is! So how does being a "conscious leader" help
you in becoming the antidote for a killer virus that is sweeping your organization?
You start by becoming mindful and present in any moment in time of your thoughts, feelings, emotions,
actions and behaviours. That coupled with being emotionally intelligent, using your intuition and honest
communication can help you shift the consciousness of your entire organization.
This is what I have helped many senior executives that I coach do, expand their capacity for self-
observation and heightened awareness.
Conscious Leadership provides a process of guiding leaders and teams deeper into an understanding of
their behaviour, interactions and decisions with this definition in mind.
Through this exploration, leaders begin to choose their actions and their decisions based on a conscious
awareness of what drives them, what derails them and what will make them more successful.
A greater self-awareness on the part of both leaders and teams creates greater collaboration, more
constructive dialogue and ultimately a smoother and more successful business outcome.
A leader's personal growth and transformation fuels that of the organization. Studies have shown that
75% or more of an individual's success in business is based on emotional intelligence. Consciousness is
the foundation of EI.
What is a Conscious Leader? The short answer: A Conscious Leader is
someone who leads with Conscious Awareness. Conscious leadership
goes beyond the day-to-day activities of one's work. It is a way of
being in all of life.
I graduated as an Engineer, worked in IT and over the years trained
as a Life Coach, NLP practitioner, CBT therapist, and developed the
mindset that is required to be present and make be conscious about
what I think, feel or do in any moment in time.
My work over the past 24 years has been about guiding individuals
and teams through the exploration of the mind and the heart and
how together they can transform human interaction, relationships
and success. All leaders are searching for a vehicle to become more
successful, more effective. That vehicle is the conscious self.
While I have held an executive position in private, public, a start-up and high growth companies, what I
believe has steeped me in the learning of leadership is the practice of consciousness. While I have
worked with leaders and teams from all segments of the business world, the uniqueness of my approach
stems from my eclectic background. I bring a breadth of knowledge, pulling from business theory,
science, ancient wisdom teachings and meditative practices.
The result of these interwoven perspectives takes leaders and teams on a journey of self-discovery and
mastery. The book “A Path to Wisdom-How to live a balanced, healthy and peaceful life”
(http://www.apathtowisdom.com) takes people on a self-discovery journey and empowers them to
bring to a conscious awareness the subconscious behaviours that prevent them from living and being in
their greatness.
The results are powerful for both the individual and his/her impact on the business. It is my true joy to
inspire people to look inside themselves, to discover their true nature, their potential and their powerful
ability to lead. In this time of planetary change, clarity, awareness and wisdom about one's self is the
true path towards greatness in leadership.
As I outlined in my book “A Path to Wisdom”, Conscious Awareness is “a process of recognizing what is
going on inside and out, the effects of decisions and actions, and the interaction between a complex
array of factors and forces.” It is a powerful tool for transcending unconscious patterns, fostering an
expanded perspective and openness to new possibilities.
Leadership on the other hand is a process of inspiring and engaging others to move in a direction
together and to accomplish something together. Leaders are people who activate and sustain this
process. Conscious Businesses are organizations with Conscious Cultures catalysed by Conscious Leaders
who recognize the higher purpose of their business and the interdependence of the stakeholders in
their business, and who lead from this awareness.
I’ll pass the talking stick to two Conscious Leaders to bring this idea to life, John Mackey, co-Founder and
co-CEO, Whole Foods Marketing and Tony Hseih, CEO, Zappos. They truly embody this and you can see it
in every part of their organization.

The key to success and leadership—it’s not intelligence, or anything you’re born with. It’s something you
can easily become once you learn to unleash the power within and embrace your leader in you.
