I won’t die with the music still in me – Launching my Spiritual Intelligence series.
Drawing inspiration from Wayne Dyer’s timeless advice, “Don’t die with the music still in you,” I am introducing a 21-day blog series Exploring Spiritual Intelligence and its profound relevance for businesses, organizations, communities, families, and personal development.
My Spiritual Intelligence approach is an intricate and comprehensive process for personal development and is a critical set of transformational skills for effective, conscious leadership. (This is not your standard cookie-cutter leadership or personal change process that you can take at a single workshop or a weekend conference and be done.)
Spiritual Intelligence is not fluffy or woo-woo. It is an evidence-based framework for holistic, living and leadership.
Research indicates that leaders and teams with higher SQ tend to outperform peers, fostering wisdom, compassion, and peace in any situation.
Benefits of Spiritual Intelligence include enhanced employee loyalty, motivation, work quality, emotional and physical health, reduced absenteeism, turnover, increased trust, safety, risk tolerance, and fostering creativity and innovation.
We won’t solve our personal, business or societal problems without going deeper and higher.
So I am following a calling – to share insights on what Spiritual Intelligence is and why it is essential for your business and personal life.
Having earned a unique credential in Spiritual Intelligence, I advocate for integrating soulful solutions into our work, life and leadership.
Sometimes the word “spiritual” cause an allergic reaction, especially in business. Why are we compelled to separate our souls from our work? Living a divided life is costly to ourselves and to thriving business and world solutions.
We see the multiple challenges right in front of us and around the world. Something is broken and has been for a long time. Otto Scharmer says we are collectively colluding in creating a future nobody wants (Scharmer, 2009).
We can do better.
View the next 21 blogs as a primer on SQ, covering essential skills for thriving in today’s world. Stay tuned for the upcoming themes.
