"I came to see in my time at IBM that Culture isn't just one aspect of the game….. It is the game" Lou Gerstner

Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.         Lao Tzu
An empowered organisation is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organisational success.
Dr Stephen R Covey

Because management deals mostly with the status quo and leadership deals mostly with change, we have to become much more skilled at creating leaders.     John P Kotter

There are many leaders, not just one. Leadership is distributed. It resides not solely in the individual at the top, but in every person at every level who, in one way or another, acts as a leader to a group of followers — wherever in the organization that person is, whether shop steward, team head, or CEO.     Daniel Goleman, Primal Leadership: Realizing the Power of Emotional Intelligence.

Every human has four endowments - self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change.
Dr Stephen R Covey
Leadership is the sum total of who you are. Leaders are developed not simply born. We can all develop ourselves to be able to guide others. Anyone who follows their internal compass can become an authentic leader.        Bill George, True North: Discover Your Authentic Leadership

Authentically Towards Success

We live in a world where it is far too easy and far too acceptable to compromise values, principles and ethics in the race to success. Whether in the pursuit of personal or professional goals, or in leading organisations, authenticity provides the opportunity to heighten self-awareness, become clear on vision and objectives and enhance the self determination required to hold steady in the face of opposition.

Authentically Towards Success exists to challenge, support and encourage individuals, leaders, teams and organisations to instill authenticity as a fundamental tenant of success. How we achieve is just as important as what we achieve!
