Excellence in leadership spans from financial strength to global greatest good and it produces a robust triple bottom line in terms of people, profits, and the planet. Leading edge leadership goes for the gold and leaves legacies.
Whether you're an executive or a business owner, you can leverage an emerging model of leadership that capitalizes on the fact that we are inter-dependently co-arising - that our health, wealth and security is linked to everyone else's. And we've documented that fact by traveling the world to experience ancient and modern examples - from the jungle to the boardroom, universities to the United Nations, the African bush to the world's most sophisticated cultures.
We work with an emerging model of leadership but it's actually not so new.
Our ancestors and even early Capitalists knew that winning isn't really winning if you have to break the Golden Rule to do it. (Every civilization in recorded history has some version of the Golden Rule - only recently has it been left out of leadership equations and the results have been devastating.)
I learned important lessons in teambuilding while staying with a tribe of headhunters in the Amazon jungle. Though they had little in terms of material wealth and their soldiers were a force to be reckoned with, they had a powerful ethic that kept everyone fed, everyone honest (there was zero stealing) and, best of all, it kept everyone laughing. As fierce as they were as warriors, they had extraordinarily happy marriages and children and the internal relationships between clans were highly respectful.
Here in Western Civilzation, we have solid data that quantifies what my tribal friends knew: values-driven leadership trumps the old profit-at-any-cost paradigm because we now know that the "new" paradigm of leadership raises share prices, profits, retention, innovation, stakeholder loyalty, organizational vitality and more. And we have well-proven methods for developing values-driven leadership to its highest potential.

- their ground fully supports developing, sharing, and realizing vision.
Leadership shows up in people - not the other way around. Sometimes there's more leadership in the way a janitor does his job than in the way some executives and business owners do theirs.
