PRESIDENT'S
Message |
| |
  Dear
Reader,
It’s becoming more and more common for
people to feel that they need to learn more
to be better at something, read more in
order to improve on themselves or their
lives, etc.
And when things are not going the way we
want, or life is not giving us what we want,
the first thing we do is look for what more
we need to learn or read up on or find out,
in order for life to work for us. I often
hear people say things like “But I am
perpetually learning, and open to learning
new things all the time. Why is it that I’m
still not getting it right?” Or, “Why is it
that no matter how many new skills I learn,
I’m still not succeeding?”
Our default seems to be to always pursue
more information. What if that is actually
the cause of the problem? What if we don’t
actually need to learn anything more or new,
but we actually need to unlearn some of what
we already know?

MEET OUR COACH MEMBER |

 Bernard
Cheung
There was a time in a coaching session where
I asked the client, “What do you like to do
when you have the money you want to
accumulate and the free time you desire?”
There was a dead silence for a complete
minute. The client realized that he lacked
internal desires that would have guided him
and this has contributed to him feeling
perplexed for many years. As a coach, I do
not know which question may invoke a deep
insight, but I know that traditional
development techniques could not achieve the
above.

THIS ISSUE'S THEME
| |
|
AUTHENCITY |
|
|
| |
|
EDITOR'S
Message |
| |
 Dear
Reader,
Authenticity means different things to
different people. But it usually, or maybe
even always, has some-thing to do with
"meaning" and "being real." It's something
that one probably never really arrives at,
but is more of a way of being, a
moment-to-moment presence / state of mind, .
I hope the feature articles in this issue
offer you interesting angles and inspiration
on authenticity, be it for your private
life, leadership role, or in your business.

The Invitation |
| |
|
It doesn’t interest me what you do
for a living. I want to know what
you ache for, and if you dare to
dream of meeting your heart’s
longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you
are. I want to know if you will risk
looking like a fool for love, for
your dream for the adventure of
being alive.

Are You Authentic In Your Small Business? |
| |
Being
authentic can be surprisingly
difficult, especially in business. I
often work with people who have no
problem being genuine in real life,
but who really struggle with
authenticity in business. I hear
from clients that, in business, they
have to appear to be mega-successful
— not just sort of successful, and
not “hey, I’m growing a business
here,” but really successful, in
order to be taken seriously. There’s
so much posturing and pretending,
because people believe that you
can’t become successful unless you
appear to already be successful.

The Most Elegant Path to Effective Leadership |
| |
|
I've been on a learning spurt in the
past few months around the most
effective ways to influence people,
to lead, and to have my life proceed
according to my highest desires. And
what I'm learning is a way of
operating that is much more
effective than the conventional
wisdom.
Fitting perfectly into that
learning, I happened upon a very
inspiring book called
“Synchronicity, the Inner Path of
Leadership”, by Joseph Jaworski.
