To effectively lead yourself and others, you have to understand the cause and effect relationship between what you think and what you do. Since what you do is the driver of your results, if you want those results to be better you have to go to the source, meaning you must shift your thinking in a way that takes full responsibility for how you experience your own life.

This presentation will show you how to do just that through a process designed to help you respond to your circumstances – whatever they are – from an empowered place, rather than simply reacting to the chaos that surrounds us all. You’ll learn the “Four Questions” process for wise decision-making, you’ll be introduced to a proven tool psychologists use to interrupt negative thought patterns, and you’ll also receive a virtues, intentions, and goals template that will clarify your most important leadership behaviors. Indeed, with the level of disruption and uncertainty in business today, we must all respond to these and other pressures with greater poise, agility, and patience than ever before. Come discover how a practice that started more than two thousand years ago is your leadership edge of today.
