four reactions?
If you feel bored, or demotivated with
what you do it is most probable that you
have more energy than the role(s) you play.
If you are stressed and tend to complain
about the pressure of your work, you
probably have less energy than what your
role requires.
The real value of life begins when you
discover these natural strengths and are
comfortable with who you as a gift to
humanity. The human person is however a
work in progress till they die and therefore
is constantly developing habits that make
up their character. These habits enable
one to gain trust, influence positively
and lead ethically for the good of all. The
21st Century will be marked by men and
women who know themselves, are open
to learning from others and adapt fast to
disruptions both from within and without.
Having said this, I must end with a
shout out to a group of individuals least
understood in a World that is constantly
focused on the external - The Introverts.
The greens and blues are introverts in
their search for energy and meaning from
within. This group of individuals are a gift
to the rest who don’t stop to listen to others
or are so bogged down by performance and
success that they rarely ask why they are
doing what they are doing. Management
and Leadership positions still fall by
default to extroverts (reds and yellows) and
overlook the strengths of quiet leadership.
Greens and blues strive to create harmony,
harness the strengths of others and lead
well through others making sure they
remain silent and hidden. The modern
workplace continues to remove hierarchical
structures that defined authority in the
past and is embracing empowering others
and collaboration in achieving results
through others. Which colors are then best
placed to flourish in the 21st Century's
workplace?
My coaching style focusses on discovering
oneself deeper beyond the behaviors seen
by everyone to unravelling the beliefs, the
values, the attitudes and the Worldview
that are underneath one's surface. Change
from down under is sustainable change
that leads to true happiness and rich
relations.
Coaching is one of many interventions
that can jumpstart you to a new discovery
and fulfilled life. Mentors, spiritual
directors, counsellors, psychiatrists and
many others add to the list of the must
have support structure you should have if
you are serious about living life to the full.
