These fifteen commitments are a distillation of decades of work with CEOs and other leaders. They are radical or provocative for many. They have been game changers for us and for our clients. We trust that they will be for you too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOur experience is that unconscious leadership is not sustainable. It won't work for you, your team or your organisation in the long term. Unconscious leadership can deliver short term results, but the costs of living and leading unconsciously are great. Fear drives most leaders to make choices that are at odds with healthy relationships, vitality and balance. This fear leaves a toxic residue that won't be as easily tolerated in an increasingly complex business environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConscious leadership offers the antidote to fear. These pages contain a comprehensive road map to guide you to shift from fear-based to trust-based leadership. Once you learn and start practising conscious leadership, you'll get results in the form of more energy, clarity, focus and healthier relationships. You'll do more and more of what you are passionate about, and less of what you do out of obligation. You'll have more fun, be happier, experience less drama and be more on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYour team will get results as well. They'll be more collaborative, creative, energised and engaged. They'll solve issues faster, and once resolved, the issues won't resurface. Drama and gossip will all but disappear, and the energy and resources that fuelled them will be redirected towards innovation and creativity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAny one of these commitments will change your life.
