The Transformational Leader

At first glance, triggering people might seem like something any good leader should avoid at all cost. However, nothing can be farther from the truth. If you're a leader looking to create transformative change, you probably already know getting people triggered is an important facet of your leadership. But how exactly do you talk people through it? And how do you determine if you're abdicating fro...

In this episode, I talked about a key concept in transformational leadership that's often misconstrued—quitting. It's safe to assume the word often gets a bad rep. However, if you want to create breakthroughs and go after the seemingly impossible, quitting would be an inevitable part of the process. I invite you to tune in and discover why quitting is important, the different ways you and other pe...

Do you ever wonder if your leadership has the potential to set you up for greatness? We have seen many leaders challenge the status quo and make a breakthrough by implementing new ideas. These leaders think differently and pay attention to their inner selves. A transformational leader creates a breakthrough, which breaks down barriers that have held them back in the past.   A breakthrough is the v...

On this week's mid-week episode, tune in as Adam live coaches Jared Anderson in a conversation that takes a different approach to what Jared initially asked for support for, that instead might really make a difference for him.

What's the distinction between growth and transformation?   Growth and transformation often get used interchangeably. Most people do not have these two concepts distinguished, and consequently, they end up calling and relating to their growth as transformation. Although there's nothing sort of morally wrong about that, what it does is it ends up denying them the capacity to really go after what th...

What's the difference between "insights," "breakdowns," and "breakthroughs"?    These are really important distinctions that people get wrong or haven't distinguished from one another. And if we don't have something distinguished, then we cannot choose between one or the other, nor do we have any ability to make a real choice because we've just got stuff bundled together.    It is often hard to te...

It gets very easy to assume that the universe is going to take care of you. For instance, if you want a date or a mate, then the universe is going to meet someone for you, do all those things. But I feel like it's really important to recognize there is a possibility for yourself to be the generator of your own life. And that if you choose to be a generator of your life rather than a receiver of yo...

Every one of us has what it takes to stand for other people, to serve them in ways that express faithfulness to the values that are worth fighting for.   When someone asks you, "What do you stand for?", are they asking what you think about some topic? Or is it about how you act out of some belief or affirmation of life?   What does it mean for us? To say that we're standing for something means we'...

On this week's mid-week episode, tune in as Adam talks with Michelle Butler about coaching, leadership, design, fashion, cocktails and living right in the Caymans.

On this week's mid-week episode, tune in as Adam live coaches Kayla MacArthur around creating and holding more intimacy in her life.

Our shadows and fears tend to mask our light and hinder us to showcase the qualities of what we embody the most. The strategies that we created out of fear have now become the way we relate to ourselves, but not the depth of who we really are. We'll continue from last week's conversation as I'll share how you can work your way to see your light within and be able to fully express them! I'm invitin...

On this week's mid-week episode, tune in as Adam discusses topics such as how to embody leadership, allow rather than force growth, and be committed AND content.

We most likely don't showcase 100% of our unique qualities due to our fears. As a way to deal with those fears, we tend to create compensating strategies to deal with them which are ineffective in the long run. Today's conversation will focus on leading the light within rather than on the shadow that we see on the surface. There is indeed more than what meets the eye and we'll tackle it today as I...

On this week's mid-week episode, tune in as Adam discusses topics such as Hunger vs. Contentment, Coaching Yourself, Your Bandwidth for Intimacy, and right action.

I often have this kind of conversation with leaders who have been asking themselves why people are not doing as they're told and not following through with their commitments.   It is a very frustrating thing and it can be really hard to understand and sometimes we make assumptions about them. We've probably all been there. We're trying to make a change, we're trying to introduce an idea, a new pro...

When getting a massage, the massage therapist would work on resetting your muscles to be in their natural state. Our muscles could be resistant to its changes but once the session is done, your body would feel new and refreshed. In today's conversation, I'll share how transformational leadership has the same principles as getting a massage! Just like a massage, we develop our leadership by going b...

One of the goals that a lot would wish to achieve is having a perfect work-life balance and maintaining it. But this balance is also the paradigm that creates the problem.
