Authentic leadership is about leading from the core of who we are to inspire each of us to our best contribution toward a shared mission.
Henna Inam
Our imperfections are what create authentic connections with one another.
Henna Inam
To change any behavior we have to slow down and act intentionally rather than from habit and impulse.
Henna Inam
The real you focuses on goals that inspire you and doesn’t let “that’s just not me!” stand in the way.
Henna Inam
To be effective, we have to slow down the speed of our thoughts and focus on managing our attention.
Henna Inam
Most of us want to be authentic. Yet, we are not who we think we are. We are made up of a rich array of facets and possibilities, many of which we ignore because we label them as “bad”. We create a cardboard cutout image of ourselves to look good to others. The discord between who we are and the image we have to live up to slowly kills our aliveness. When we suppress parts of ourselves, it lowers our mojo, sense of fulfillment, leadership effectiveness and impact in the workplace.
Henna Inam
Authentic leadership is a whole body experience. Our bodies have a lot more to teach us about ourselves than our thoughts.
Henna Inam
Authenticity is not possible without embracing the “and” within us. Our minds like to categorize things into neatly labeled boxes. Am I right, or is she right? Let’s stretch our minds to I can be right and so can she. Embracing the “and” is like yoga for the brain. When we train ourselves to hold paradoxes by stretching ourselves out of the boxes our minds create, we stretch into new possibilities and adapt more quickly in a fast-changing world.
