Some of the books which have influenced my practice of Leadership.
THE LANGUAGE OF LEADERSHIP - L
How we choose to communicate magnifies our leadership.
Language sets the tone of our leadership.
Every word we say is supported by our body language; and we are being observed every moment to determine if our languages are consistent. Consistency helps people learn if we can be trusted.
Creating a trustworthy organisation is what successful leaders focus on; they know that their culture, climate and environment is what their people love to return to, every day. They know that when their people feel trusted to do their job, they are the best advocates for the organisation.

I am often confronted with people who appear to ‘live to work’ rather than ‘work to live’. Whilst this might sound contradictory, many people have found their calling, and are living the work which they love. Are you living the life which you love?
I have a learning mindset. I love learning. I learn from my clients; who learn from me. And the best way to learn is to have a good laugh. Humour has an amazing affect in the way we learn and recall what we learn.
When people work with me, we face challenges and opportunities together. Their lack or loss of confidence is fixed as we test the unspoken stuff in their head and heart which possibly occurred when they traveled the Ladder of Inference. One of my self-awareness models.
To live, to learn, to laugh, to lead …
My mantra for many years.
