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.

- ‘Am I cut out to become a coach?’
- ‘Can I coach?’

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’.

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.

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

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.
