Sustaining, Motivating, and Restoring Leaders
Who doesn’t want to spend time with people who harness
their chi (life force) for good in the world?
When I set out to build this business, I knew I wanted to surround
myself with women who are mobilizing their chi in a positive direction and securing
additional resources for women and girls.
The other important quality was to support women leaders who were doing
this work while sustaining (or trying to find harmony with) their whole
selves. Over the past year, I have had
the honor of leading several different leadership groups to
demystify what restoring and re-energizing one’s chi could look and feel like.
Hearts on Fire
How people are treated and how customers and clients ‘feel’ about the
changes a leader or team implements has a ripple effect on the brand
and the organization’s mission. Without a guiding set of
values to anchor the ‘heart’ of an organization, one tends to drift
aimlessly from project to event to meeting without a sense of
conviction. Values and principles are essential starting points for organizations seeking to create change.
The Care Economy
At this important time in our new economy conversations, more voices are needed to raise up the role of care givers and offer remedies to integrate this work into our policies. We hosted Riane Eisler at the Learning Collective and we got to hear her smart thinking on how to raise up the care economy.
