We are living in an age of leadership that’s all about openness, authenticity and vulnerability yet expectations of leaders remain high. Leaders are told to play to their strengths but feel the pressure to be good at everything. We know that’s a myth. The omnicompetent leader doesn’t exist. Never has, never will.
Leaders are encouraged to take risks, push boundaries and be entrepreneurial but there is low tolerance for mistakes. Read any article on leadership and you’ll see creativity, innovation and visionary thinking are the must-haves. But so are pragmatism and financial acumen.
It’s no wonder that leaders at all levels get stuck. Stuck in their development and in meeting competing demands. Stuck in old behaviors, bad behaviors and adapting to new behaviors. Stuck in myopic perspectives, arrogance or self-doubt. Navigating complex situations, relating to others and leveraging difference. Stuck. The same issues apply to teams and organizations. That’s why we exist. Put simply, we help leaders, teams and organizations become unstuck so they can move forward.

With other leadership development consultants it is not uncommon to have predictable or tried and true solutions played back to you. With MindsOpen I have experienced unique insight.
Inspirational team facilitation in larger group settings. Creative in engaging the group and challenging them to grow.
The coaching has transformed how I think about and practice leadership. It’s benefited me in innumerable ways, professionally and personally. More importantly, it’s benefited the organization I lead and the next generation of leaders. That ‘multiplier effect’ is priceless. We would not be the organization we are today without it.
