These inner successes become the fuel that power the success everyone else sees on the outside. As these inner transformations happen, they enable the movement from one level of leadership to the other. From no leadership to survival as a leader. From survival to success. And finally, from success to significance.
The 8 silent performance killers that can stop your best people dead in their tracks.
You hire them. They look and sound great. They have all the skills. So why do they struggle to get results? Sound familiar? Finally! Some answers.
The Leadership Spark
Many leaders want to be passionate, and many things can ignite the flame of passion, and of desire. The desire to be popular, to be accomplished, to be praised, to have influence, to be recognised as authorities, to be “first”. This flame often burns so intensely that it can consume a person until there is nothing left but a bunch of excuses attempting to save face, preserve an ego, and justify much lost time, energy, and resources. There is one secret exception to this. The one thing that’s different on the inside of great leaders, even though from the outside they may look quite similar to the rest. When that flame of desire is sparked by humility and fanned with faith, with purpose, and with grit, it becomes an inferno that rises so high it can be seen by many from a far distance, and while it illuminates the path before you, it burns away all the elements of any story that has held you captive till that moment, and it continues to rage relentlessly, until all that’s left is the truth. In that final moment, when all is now quiet, you know you’ve arrived. Welcome to leadership.

THE NEXT LEVEL LEADER
When you’re ready.
The best leaders know they need to constantly work on themselves. It’s not the blind spots in the marketplace, or your mission, or your team that have the most impact. True leaders have the humility and care enough to know that they need to shed light on the blind spots in themselves if they are to move from survival to success, and then from success to significance.
