ABOUT CONSCIOUS LEADERSHIP
What is Conscious Leadership?
Conscious leadership is when leaders use their ever increasing awareness to enhance situations by working from the bigger picture which includes intuition and intellect to align to a higher purpose.
These leaders walk their talk and are prepared to be true to themselves and others by endeavouring to work through challenging situations from the “cause”, not just the “effect”. Working this way goes directly to the source of the problem and change can instantly occur.
When a leader operates with open communication and is committed to building better relationships everyone feels valued and included. It creates a highly effective and enjoyable workplace where individuals feel a loyalty and connection to all and a motivation to deliver a successful business.
“Conscious leaders create a ripple effect by their own conscious movement.”

“Conscious Leadership is key”
GM Holden Executive Director – Human Resources, Mr Ashley Winnett
Conscious Leadership Sessions
We often try too hard and force things to work when they are not meant to. The more conscious we are of listening internally and allowing what is meant to happen, rather than what we want to happen, the more natural the outcomes will be.
How does it work?
We work together in person or by phone.
Just give me a call 0417 451 904 and we have a brief chat to discover what you are looking for and for us to understand if I am the right person for you.
From this point, everything just flows. We make a session time and go from there. It is a non-confrontational, allowing and a safe and confidential space for all communications to be made.
A deeper understanding can take place that opens up hidden truths and connects us more with our true self.

What Conscious Leaders are saying?
Excerpt from Richard Goyder Speech (Managing Director, Wesfarmers)
-
“Stop expecting God leaders and instead focus more on how we ourselves can change things for the better.”
“Stop expecting God leaders and instead focus more on how we ourselves can change things for the better.” He goes on to say “The days are numbered of God-like leadership where everyone wants to be led by someone strong and faultless. We are looking more towards a Humanistic Leader who is part of the team.”
Janine Allis, founder of Boost Juice

“Listen more than talk.”
“I have been like a sponge in business from day one, and spend my time even now, listening to successful people and their approach to business and life. I could write pages of things that I have learnt on hiring people, driving profit, making people accountable for their actions, creating culture etc. But really this all gets down to listening, so the best advice I have heard is listen more than talk.”
Quote from John Renesch, a San Francisco-based businessman turned futurist and author of Getting to the Better Future: A Matter of Conscious Choosing.
-
“Conscious leadership is a move away from the traditional and intimidating form of leadership towards integrity, unity and trust.”
“Conscious leadership is a move away from the traditional and intimidating form of leadership towards integrity, unity and trust. In contrast to traditional leaders who spend years building resumes, acquiring wealth and power, and who play politics to build titles and rank, a new breed of managers understands that a conscious style of leadership will result in higher performance and ultimately higher profits.”
Eugene Trautwein, vice president of worldwide customer support at Commvault
-
“Put yourself in the other person’s shoes.”
“One of my earliest mentors taught me the value of active empathy in all things Business. The old adage ‘Put yourself in the other person’s shoes’, the importance of taking on another parties’ circumstances and influences and then utilising this to build an understanding of their perspective. With this unique insight, you have a great opportunity to help your customer with their challenges as well as lead and motivate your teams.”

Excerpt from Conscious Leadership Client
“This client is a CEO in Sydney and I was touched when I received his honest and open email communication. He wanted me to know what he had been discovering about himself through our sessions. I asked if I could anonymously share this as I felt it would help others…he said yes.” Jilly Gabrielson
“As you know I am a complex person. I am often contrary and contradictory. I am very strong in some areas but weak in others. I pay scant regard to much of my personal life and get caught up in work and the security and positioning it brings me to the expense of other things. I am philosophic and a deep thinker but also operate in a shallow existence. My feelings are buried and I like it that way but when they come out I also like it. I treat people badly in my life and at work and at the same time I can be very caring and generous.”…
Consciousness doesn’t work in a linear way, one day we can think something is definitely a particular way and the next day with greater awareness it can look completely different.
