EXECUTIVE INSIGHT - Timeless Leadership
Timeless leaders nurture people as “source” rather than manipulate them as resource. They transform by leading people to themselves. They do not coerce people to change; they merely induce the change process by changing the internal dialogue within the person.
Timeless Leadership is paradoxically about discontinuity, it is about crossing the threshold of conditioned attention of a given time, space and culture.
This session will enrich your leadership signature combining emerging management principles of the 21st century with some of the world’s most enduring spiritual practices. Professor Chatterjee will challenge you to confront firmly ingrained beliefs and bypass the familiar quick-fix solutions in favour of deep insight which will enable you to succeed as a leader and human being.
Key take-aways:
- How can you induce and lead transformation in your organization?
- How do you foster a truly creative spirit at work to make a reality of the agile, learning organization?
- Gain insights into three disciplines of timeless leadership:
- Concentration in Thinking: Crossing the threshold of one’s habitual thought patterns through deepening attention
- Contribution in Acting: Crossing the boundary of one’s habitual activities towards greater purpose
- Connection in Inter-Relating: Crossing the seductive trap of one’s ego-centric behaviours to achieve coherence with a larger social field.
