Today, we're used to getting things fast. However, what is rarely spoken about is how this luxury can lead to a shortsightedness that severely limits our ability to be effective in our endeavours. Higher purpose is more than just the pursuit of a dream or goal. It is a quality that is partly vision (being visionary), and partly to do with going beyond our personal needs for the sake of others (inclusive vision). This article explores both aspects to explain why higher purpose is such a crucial q...

What is higher purpose, and why is it such a critical quality for leaders and entrepreneurs?

Entrepreneurship has been a buzzword for almost two decades. But it’s a word that has been so overloaded and bastardised, that there is much confusion, misunderstanding and even inauthenticity and deception around its actual meaning and what it takes to be an entrepreneur.

It also explains why the highest achieving leaders in the world are willing to be misunderstood and even judged for sticking to their guns and being true to themselves and their vision.

Are you willing to be misunderstood in pursuit of your vision?

What comes to mind when you think of authenticity? Do you think of it as the quality of being real and true to yourself, of not pretending to be someone you are not? This article will reveal that being yourself is only part of the story and the significant consequences, individually and collectively, when authenticity is lacking.

Is there more to authenticity than just 'being yourself'?

'Change the behaviour, change the outcome' seems to be the dominant way of thinking these days. But while changing the behaviour is necessary if you want a different outcome, it is only part of the solution. To change the behaviour and outcome sustainably, you need to become aware of and address the deeper qualities (Aspects of Being) that make you who you are and cause how you show up in the world. While most people focus on what they should have and do in order to be the person they want to be...

Fulfilling an organisation's mission through effectiveness, performance and its ability to undergo successful business and organisational transformation come down to the integrity of that organisation.

This article explores this question and explains why the so-called ‘soft skills’ – which are much deeper than skill...
