Take Your First Step Toward True Evolution of Your Impact!

Ever wonder why you repeat the same negative thoughts in your head? Why you keep coming back for more from hurtful family members, friends, or significant others? Why you keep falling into the same detrimental habits or limiting attitudes—even when you know that they are going to make you feel bad?

Dr. Joe Dispenza has spent decades studying the human mind—how it works, how it stores information, and why it perpetuates the same behavioral patterns over and over. In the acclaimed film What the Bleep Do We Know!? he began to explain how the brain evolves—by learning new skills, developing the ability to concentrate in the midst of chaos, and even healing the body and the psyche.

In closing this series on “Super Charged Executive Development” there are several key understandings I want to emphasize. First, I understand that each human being is different.  This series was meant to show some clear distinctions yet each executive has their own unique pattern of behaviors that can have a rich blend of all the orientations discussed in the last few entries.

That being said, the understanding offered here points the executive development approach into the right direction by pointing out specific ways the three orientations (Achiever, Intellectual and Relater) can strengthen their impact in leadership.  The issue here is not about forcing people to learn specific competencies.  It is about helping each individual leader navigate to their natural leadership development journey – which is unique for each person.  In addition, there are several points of understanding that must be brought front and center when we speak about strengthening leadership in today’s executives.
