The Transformational Leader

True wisdom is gained through experience. A leader possesses the natural longing for learning. But, it's not the kind of learning where one hides away from criticisms, rejections, or blunders. It's the kind where his willingness goes beyond unpleasant consequences to set an example where mistakes and failures are critical for the genuine application of learning. Thus, being able to grasp timeless...

In life, transformations aren't always easy. Transcending towards a greater path means leaving your comfort zone. Easier said than done, right? This is one of the main reasons why people tend to settle. Sometimes, we are engulfed with fear that we cannot take action and end up settling. But, in life, settling is not the same as living. As human beings, some of us aspire to do more, have more and b...

What's in the way of you living the life of your dreams? Your resistance to a breakdown. We are always unconsciously expressing our resistance to a breakdown. Maybe you want to have a loving relationship, but end up dating someone you feel like you have a chance with, just because it's safe. Or maybe you want to start a business, but couldn't leave your 9-5 because you're afraid of failing. It is...

In a world of constant chaos and conflict, it only makes sense to resolve issues and bring order to your life. Right? Well, not necessarily. As humans, we are hardwired to seek harmony and consistency - both in our words and actions. After all, it is through order and balance that we can truly live our life. But, this too, is a limiting ideal. So, how can we go through life without spending every...

Can we genuinely be true to ourselves and show up exactly as who we really are?  We were born with innate qualities, yet depending on the situation that we are in, we tend to over-express or under-express our true selves. We've learned to flaunt our natural abilities to gain recognition and at the same time, we suppress those qualities with other people to be accepted. We've unconsciously provided...

What's the distinction between coaching and leading? These two terms are commonly used in the same context yet their meaning is so different from one another. Although none of these words are superior or inferior in terms of meaning, it is important to differentiate coaching from leading if you aspire to create profound transformation. Coaching empowers someone to support them in whatever path the...

Can we get rid of our fears permanently? There's always a standard way of how we think things work. Working twice as hard could typically mean acquiring twice as much salary and likewise, working less means less income to earn. This realm of predictability is simply increasing or decreasing your effort and having the equivalent result, thus no breakthroughs are applied. The realm of possibility, o...

Does our approach in helping others really empowers transformation? Let's say the person we're coaching is stuck in a hole, and as leaders, we tend to provide support to them. Our initial reaction to offer help for getting them out of it would be to give them a hand to lift themselves up, provide a ladder, and so on. And it does help them to get out of the hole they're in but it doesn't actually d...

From appearance, social status, intelligence, net worth, skill and many more aspects in life, people strive for this fulfilling phenomena.

Can a get-away to a tropical forest make a big difference in our lives in civilization? This change of scenery may sound like a simple vacation. Although, it holds more than the concept of escaping our concrete jungles. As an evolving species, we experience more adverse  challenges, more short-term seasons in our lives and maybe even harder problems in this generation. We deal with a tremendous am...

Are you better at working in teams or working on your own? I'm sure you'd agree that when you work alone, you tend to become obsessed with planning everything beforehand. And that leaves you constantly perfecting yourself; and before you know it, you have let time pass you by without actually working on your project. Our ego works that way. It makes us think we need to wrap up and take care of eve...

If previous experience has taught us anything, it's that it's always a good idea to set boundaries, right? But when we set boundaries, does it mean we need to agree to the people around us to respect every boundary we set, and if those boundaries were crossed, they should deal with any consequence? Many people have this kind of expectation that when they set boundaries, people will naturally be aw...

Have you ever stopped to think about the kind of impact you give as a leader? How often do you look around and ask yourself how your actions affect people? Do you own the responsibility for their issues, or do you just play the victim and blame others for your actions?

Who's better at pulling the mission forward: the boss or the leader? The idea of being a boss is somewhat inspiring; you sit in your chair, telling people what and what not to do and being in control of the team. Then, there is this kind of context that if you are a leader, you are expected to be out in front, pulling the mission forward first and foremost. And if you're the boss, you're usually t...

In this episode, I'll discuss something leaders have to deal with at one point or another—what to do when people won't take action. Understandably, this is something many leaders find challenging.

You'll find the answer to those questions and m...
