The higher up you go in companies, the more you're dealing with psychological and relational issues. Successful CEO leadership requires astuteness about others: their emotional and strategic personal drivers; their self-interest, overt and covert. These relationship competencies rest on a foundation of self-knowledge, self-awareness. And you can't know the truth about another without knowing it about yourself.

Conscious Leaders focus on “we”, rather than “me.” They inspire, foster transformation and bring out the best in those around them. They understand that their role is to serve the purpose of the organisation, to support the people within the organization and to create value for the all of the organisation’s stakeholders. They recognise the integral role of culture and purposefully cultivate a conscious culture of trust and care.
