Leadership Counseling

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort,
but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
– Martin Luther King, Jr.

We live in an exponential age.

As a leader in the community, you know that you face a world that is changing under your feet.

Technological disruption and exponential growth of new industries provide new challenges and new opportunities that are moving faster than individuals and institutions to adapt.

At the same time, demographic changes are transforming the labor market.

This age is one of miracles and wonders, but also an age of disruption and stress.

Lean into uncertainty.

This exponential change creates high levels of uncertainty for ourselves and our community.

As leaders, we must negotiate these changes in our lives as we support our team members in facing disruptive growth.

Psychologically, the challenge is to face the change and to keep our equanimity as we respond to the changing structure of our society.

Lead from a position of clarity and health.

Leave the past and stay responsive to the present.

Often, we surprise ourselves with how painful it can be to let go.

As humans, we attach not only to people but to our possessions, our identity, and the patterns of our lives.

For most of us, the COVID years demonstrated this to us with the pain and discomfort of losing our “normal.”

The psychological and emotional work of grieving the loss of your “normal” keeps you emotionally healthy and responsive.

Face what is and what will be rather than fight to hold on to the past.

Success begins with supporting yourself.

Having a professional relationship in your corner can make all the difference in helping you be a responsive leader in dealing with the changes unfolding. Give yourself the edge you need.

Your business or institution is likely facing some natural friction in these changes.

By managing expectations and working through the disturbing thoughts and feelings associated with our work, we allow ourselves to be as resourceful as possible in facing leadership challenges.

Struggling with uncertainty is necessary, but you don’t have to do it alone.
