Enlightened Leadership Programme - Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners

Genuinely You - Enlightened Leadership Programme

John has built a successful small business up from the ground employing about ten people. It is his greatest achievement and he is very proud of it – but his team don’t seem to share this. John is struggling hard to keep on top of all the work and manage the team. He wants so much to instil a sense of responsibility and ownership within his team-members so that they too can share in the potential of the business. No matter what he has tried, his team remain resolutely in a state of apparent ‘learned-helplessness’. John wonders how it got like this? Does being the leader in a small business always have to feel like this?

Is this you?

Do you feel that being a leader means packing away your personal values? Do you feel that you’re having to do the thinking for each of your employees, are you tired of no-one else taking any responsibility or that you’re going to be ‘found-out’ as the imposter that you secretly believe yourself to be? Do you have to steel yourself for the long working day ahead? Do you feel guilty that you don’t have time to spend time with the family or for any interests outside of work? Are you taking all the financial risk but feel you aren’t getting any benefit?

It doesn’t have to be like that!

Leadership can be one of the most enlightening and positive experiences in life! Leadership can see you achieve wonderful things together with your colleagues. Leadership performed well can definitely improve the quality of everyone’s life.

Many leadership training courses miss the most fundamental foundation stones of how to become a great leader – they forget that great leaders bring themselves wholly and fully to the role. The statistics on the long-term effect of leadership courses demonstrate the inherent weakness – only a tiny proportion (less than 10%) of the new-learning is still being acted upon six months afterwards.

We believe that great leaders do not separate themselves from their leadership. We believe great leaders are enlightened to the value that being their genuine best selves at all times – not just at home – brings with it the ability to inspire and lead others. We believe that great leaders are consciously awake to the need to be the best version of themselves – their highest selves.

Do you feel that way too?

If you do, then we think that the Genuinely You Enlightened Leadership Programme may well be the perfect fit for you.

The Enlightened Leadership Programme challenges participants to look deeply into their own values, fears and insecurities, in order to be guided carefully and compassionately towards a greater understanding of their strengths and talents. It is this process that we believe produces leaders who feel able to embody the learning that this programme delivers. It is this ‘alchemical’ process that enables our participants to bring fairness, strength and compassion to their daily work-leadership roles, and to do it with a sense of ease and grace.

We believe It is only by being our whole selves that we can find our true power and apply this with elegance and authority to improve not only our own lives but also that of our family, colleagues and neighbours, indeed of humanity at large.

The Genuinely You Enlighted Leadership Programme has been designed specifically to actively support participants through this challenging introspection and transformation. All participants are assigned their own personal leadership-facilitator. All participants have access to Genuinely You’s founder and CEO, Gina Gardiner, and also to other participants via the twice monthly interactive group coaching sessions and through the private Face Book support group.

This is a highly challenging leadership course that will test leadership preconceptions and ‘old-ways’ of thinking. It will be intensive at times. But, if you believe, like we do, that leadership should not be a sacrificial act of one’s personal values in order to be a successful leader, or even to remain within the role, then we think you will be prepared to commit to the deep personal development and growth that this course will require of you.

Course Length = 10 months

This course is for you if:

  • You are tired of feeling everything is down to you
  • You want a highly motivated and engaged staff who take responsibility for their own performance and a shared responsibility for the performance of the organisation
  • You want staff who are curious, creative and ready to help you move the organisation forward
  • If you believe in leading with compassion and integrity whilst having high expectations of others which are consistently met
  • You are in a position of leadership already but are tired of the old ‘tricksy’ management techniques and being ‘sold’ the latest shortcut to motivate and manage your team.
  • You want to feel a greater ease and peace about the challenges and behaviours that your working-hours require of you and also achieve a happier and more fulfilling sense of life in general.
  • You have or desire a culture that seeks to foster the belief in your employees that it is possible to achieve a greater ease and peace about the challenges and behaviours that your business requires of them. More than that – that your organisation wants them to achieve a happier and more fulfilling sense of life in general and are prepared to take consistent action to support this
  • You want to have a highly profitable business and a happy well motivated staff who are ready to anticipate and embrace any future changes the market dictates

This course is not for you if:

  • You are happy for things to stay the same
  • You are not committed to taking ownership of your role as leader
  • If you are not prepared to take consistent action
  • You are put off by having to consider yourself honestly – weaknesses and faults included – deeply and with vulnerability
  • You are unwilling to share your thoughts, challenges and wins with others
  • You wish to keep your working life separate from what you think of as your ‘personal’ life.
  • You consistently blame others for the issues you are facing
  • You are unwilling to take responsibility for your choices
  • You see yourself as a victim
