Who do you want to be as a leader, and how do you want to engage with your team? Conscious leadership is about recognizing your below-the-line thinking and habits and creating new habits that allow you to lead from above-the-line and teach your team members the same patterns.
In this solo episode of the Inspirational Leadership podcast, I discuss the critical role of conscious leadership in creating high-performing teams and organizations. Conscious leadership is about showing up in the world from a place of responding instead of from a place of reactivity.
Listen in to learn the difference between the below-the-line victim mentality and the above-the line creator mentality and how to develop the latter.
Key Takeaways:
- The seriousness of below-the-line versus the playfulness of above-the-line leadership.
- How leading above the line gives you the ability to notice patterns and create new habits.
- The learning and growth that occur when you engage in healthy communication with others.
- How to commit to creating new habits that lead to deeper relationships and creative problem-solving with conscious leadership.
Standout Quotes:
“Conscious leadership is the process by which a leader becomes radically responsible, self-aware, and focuses on building a culture of “we” rather than a culture of “me.”- Kristen [00:47]
“The more you can neutrally non-judgmentally notice what you’re feeling, the more you can give space for that.”- Kristen [12:23]
