Soul Driven Leadership - SDL

When Competence of Leadership must stand up..
High quality leadership with a long term view is perhaps one of the most lacking competence in our country today. Chest beating, fast talking, cost cutting  leaders are a plenty but is that the type our country, our companies and our people deserve?  Organisations with a vision and more importantly a soul will thrive, where ever they are in the world.  These organisations will profit even in tough economic times in the most under performing industries..  

Apple and Google have been favourites of mine for many years, examples of soul driven leadership. These organisations have thrived in the worst economic times the world has seen. What it takes is leadership that gave it a soul.   How do you muster human talent to achieve great world beating outcomes.

Virgin group run by Richard Branson is another great example of an organisation with a soul. A brand that stands for its values and a leader that is true to its values in the way he lives and runs over a thousand businesses.

Another favourite, Salesforce.com an organisation with a highly competent leader, in fact a culture of leadership. These are companies with souls...they are growing when most companies are going backwards, and as long as they remain so will continue to grow.


For whom: Leaders, Managers,Junior and Senior
Time : 45-to 90 minutes, or 3 hours (detailed version).
