The Law of the Lid is a universal Law in Leadership.   The degree of our success is in direct proportion to the level of our leadership abilites.

At Stanford University’s Advisory Council on leadership, a question was poised to the council to discover what was the most important quality that was foundational to leadership development.  Unanimously the council voted that “Self Awareness” was the one foundational ingredient beyond all other leadership characteristics that must be present to evolve into an authentic leader.

The degree to which you develop your self awareness will be the degree you expand your leadership effectiveness and abilities.  The measure of your success both professionally and personally will be dependent on this development.

So what is Self Awareness and how do you obtain it so you become the most successful you that you can be?

How can you breakthrough to the next level of your developing leadership abilities QUICKLY?   How can YOU INFUSE your leadership skills, wisdom and knowledge into real dynamic deep seeded change that is sustainable?

This type of change is what “Authentic Conversation Day” is all about.  We have developed a unique approach to leadership development that is not offered by any other leadership training company.  When you chose the  Authentic Conversation day experience you and your organization will transform to a level of leadership that creates tangible success and lasting change.

Leaders must first learn to self lead before they can lead others.  A foundational principle to our self leadership is the ability to hold resolution driven conversations. The quality of the conversation is the quality of our relationships both personally and professionally. Without the conversation, the possibilities for evolving the relationship or resolving the road blocks come to an end.

Whether in business or your personal relationships, the authentic conversation is the foundation that will bring you success.  When we decline the opportunity to hold the authentic conversations, we make ourselves smaller and smaller as we grow more silently resentful towards the other person and ourselves, for not having the courage to step up.  We further deteriorate the relationship and weaken our own identity by our silence.  As our resentment builds we become more covert in our behaviors and find ourselves acting in ways which are misaligned to our core values.  In incremental stages we compromise ourselves and eventually destroy the relationship and the possibilities of resolving historical issues.

People do not become burned out because of solving problems, they become burned out because of attempting to solve problems with the same strategies that hasn’t worked before.

During this breakthrough experience the historical problems are addressed, kaleidoscopic thinking strategies are applied, coupled with the innovation strategies of Thomas Edison and solutions are discovered.

I just finished a amazing lecture here in Perth at the Subi Arts Center  which is a center for the performing arts here in Western Australia and did a demo of the power of one of the processes I created years ago called the Memory Resolution Techniques™ .    The gentleman I picked from the audience had a event from his past that was traumatizing to him that he had carried it with him for 40 years with no resolution and continuous pain.  I asked him before we started the process how this event had affected his life and he said it had over shadowed every aspect of his life.  He had shut himself off from his emotions, destroyed his relationships and basically made him an emotional cripple.

This process takes about 5 to 8 minutes to facilitate and that’s it.  I began the process and the audience could see the stress leaving his body and his demeanor softening.  After about 5 minutes I knew he was complete.  I asked him how he was feeling and he said.  I can’t see the memory anymore nor can I  feel any feeling about the event.  Then said I feel this bubble of joy rising up in my chest that is pure joy. And big smile spread across his face.  He a said:  I actually feel happy.

I just love the power of this work and only dram that everyone will wake up to the possibility of what they can do for others and themselves.

I’m still here in Australia teaching and just finished a two intensive on teaching about the power of language, so I desired to keep expanding upon the use of language with a few more distinctions about the power of how we speak and what it reveals about the way we think and therefore behave.

During the training I became fascinated by how many people spoke in a linguistic term called Universal Quantifiers.  Some examples of universal Quantifiers are “all the time, everyone, no one, every time, always etc.  These word choices literally lock our thinking into absolutes and causes the false experience that something is an absolute constant.  Universal Quantifiers are linguistic distortions which produce limitations in rational thinking and therefore possibilities.  When we speak to what truly is rather than extremes and it will free up our ability to think outside the box of our experiences.

Know your outcome for your conversation. To create the greatest influence in your conversation, apply the following intentions:

 

1. Intend to enhance learning and understanding through the conversation.

Our life and business success hinges on every conversation we participate in.

All the unsuccessful events in our life both personally and professional can be traced to our conversation skills, or lack of them and our lack of conflict resolution strategies.

Our conversation reflects the health of our relationships we are in.  Without the conversation, the possibilities for evolving the relationship or creating movement in our careers come to an end.  Organization falters relationships come to a end and we cease our own personal evolution and comprise our success opportunities.

As we decline the opportunity to have the conversations we require to have, we make ourselves smaller and smaller every time we do not demonstrate the courage to speak authentically, with self accountability and a desire to reach mutual understanding between the differences.

Eventually we will silently resent the person whom we have not had the courage to hold an authentic conversation with.  As a result the relationship further deteriorates as we weaken our self esteem through cowardice.

As the resentment builds and our truth continues to not be spoken, our behaviors become more covert and we find ourselves behaving in ways which are misaligned with our core values.

Every time we withhold our authenticity in our conversations we make ourselves smaller and smaller, weaker and weaker. This occurs within our marriages and life partnerships as well as within our business relationships.

As a consequence, our life success or failure will occur dependent upon our courage to hold authentic conversations.

 

The Missing Piece inside Your Conversation is you. 

Showing up fully present, honest, accountable and authentic will create your successful completion of your Goals.
