Political Leadership: An interesting discussion on The Print by Mr. Shekhar Gupta on high command politics, which thrives on ‘good’, old command & control leadership. That style belonged to an earlier era.

Interestingly the concept of leadership has evolved from the old leadership styles borrowed from the military to the industrial revolution. The consciousness is ready for more decentralized, empowering leadership. The political parties who truly adopt these will have an advantage over others in the near future.

Factories and the military are discovering the power of more empowering leadership. Can politics lag behind? …

- ‘Am I cut out to become a coach?’

- ‘Can I coach?’

- ‘Do I have it in me to touch lives deeply through professional coaching?’

- ‘When do I start coach training?’

- ‘Will I be able to complete the Regal certification, ICF credentials?’

Common questions aspiring coaches (corporate leaders, professionals, business owners, and others) ask us. Agree with Naval, don’t ask us or anyone else. Go by what your heart says, your heart will never go wrong. Your heart knows. Not the cognitive, ego-based, ‘monkey mind’.

Coaching is also the journey from head to heart.

Training content, Personalized, Future Leaders, and Purpose

Learning & Development: How the healthcare industry is ensuring continuous training of employees @ETHRWorld

The situation, still evolving…:

  1. The majority of healthcare companies have moved from traditional webinar-based training to creating tailor-made training content.

2. Organisations have rolled out exclusive hyper-personalized learning programs for doctors, nurses, and tech teams.

1. Professional coaching, trained/certified/ICF credentialed coaches

2. Team coaching, apart from 1–1 professional coaching

3. Coaching is the future…


Every ‘Family Man’ is a minimum guy!

Who is a minimum guy? Aren’t these labels we conveniently give to others, ‘minimum’, ‘maximum’, or ‘average’? In the corporate, also ‘dead wood’, a not so popular outcome of annual performance appraisal.

Someone becomes a performer/non-performer based on the environment the leaders create, also the peers and all others in the system. That “guy” is also an average of all others around him/her!

Irrespective of the labels, we have a choice to move towards our #fullpotential. We owe it to ourselves, our Higher Consciousness. Take responsibility, take action.

#MinimumGuy #leadership #culture #familyman

The concluding part of the clip is the dream of every family man! 😁😁

Though I propose no violence, in thought word & deed!


Reflective, Journaling, the pandemic — Therapeutic & beyond!

  • Infrequent journalers find themselves turning more towards their journals during the pandemic
  • Many others are picking up this new habit of putting the pen to the paper. Some others are picking up
  • Do you journal?
  • For its therapeutic value or ‘has been jotting down observations, life hacks, life lessons, and bumper sticker quotes?’

The journey to ‘become a coach’ or to your full potential (being regal) is incomplete without reflective (regal) journaling

A South Indian film shot during the pandemic, lockdown

Anupama Chopra keeps referring to the movie, almost getting the pronunciation right. My wife confirmed ‘you will like it’ (she knows my taste), so chose to check out. I am very selective about the movies I watch. Also promote #SayNoToBingewatching 🙈😁

Shirley (Parvathy) and Roy (Sharaf), a married couple, move from Mumbai to her home in Kerala ahead of a nationwide lockdown.

Roy’s consignment from China is stuck, even before the lockdown requiring payment of an additional bribe to get released. Roy’s relationship with his childhood friend is at a breaking point owing to accumulated debt of 2–2.5 CR!

TRUSTWORTHY — ‘With several wellness brands in the market promising to combat viruses, the real battle lies in winning over consumers…’ ET BE

- Isn’t trust at the core of all relationships? For brands with their customers, for all at work, home, or in the community?

- How do you build trust in all relationships?

#DYK: ‘The demand for nutritional supplements has increased 30%. Recent data shows that Indians have spent Rs 15,000 crore on immunity boosters since April 2020.’

- immunity has to be built well before the need appears (pandemic or otherwise!).

- Medication vs Nutrition. Prevention Vs Treatment is a choice.

What are the trust levels of brands in the area of nutraceuticals brands? Trust is at the core of professional coaching

What makes India unique, great?

Delighted to listen to Shekhar Gupta @theprint #IndiansAndReligion

Listening to his #CutTheClutter on the survey, reminded me of the lines of this popular Hindi song…

‘Yeh Mera India, I love my India…’

Here is the link to his analysis of the #pewsurvey

Shekhar Gupta asks then what is the problem? Perhaps it is a small minority of people

  • Who is your favourite (Hindu) God? You will be surprised to hear the top 5 popular deities. (Hey Ram!)
  • What unites us all? Superstitions, etc !!! United Colors of Superstitions!!

The #culture of India is what it unique, and great. Master calls it ‘Bharatheeya Culture…’, beyond caste, creed, religion.

A Linkedin Poll: Any leader, CEO/COO/CFO/CMO/CXO/CIO, needs time to make an impact. Currently, what do you think is the average tenure of a corporate leader?

DYK The average tenure in the CSuite, based on a Korn Ferry study:

  • An earlier study indicated ‘80% of CEOs do not trust/unimpressed with their CMOs’
  • If you can not impress (in the right sense) your boss, can you impress your customers and other stakeholders, internal and external?
  • The corresponding figure for a CFO was pegged at 10% — no wonder the CFO is considered the right hand of a CEO. Is that also because…

  1. Transactional coaches focus on body language! Isn’t that unfair to the client?
  2. Transformational coaches go beyond the tactical body language to ‘listen’ at all levels. We listen deeply when we close our eyes.

In the depths of silence, the voice of God can be heard, Master reminds.

Unless trained, certified, credentialed, experienced, with continued deep work & learning, a coach is not equipped to partner with the coachee to facilitate the transformational shift.

Let’s go beyond #bodylanguage. Let the communication be beyond the mere senses. Tap into the intuition/gut.

Just as ‘Coaching is bigger than coaching’ ,(— Sir John Whitmore)
