6 Key Lessons for Elevating Your Leadership Skills

I wrote the article "From the Ashram to Leadership Excellence: 6 Key Lessons for Elevating Your Leadership Skills" for ICF Romania’s blog, inspired by and as a gift to my coaching clients - leaders in organizations committed to lifelong learning.

In the article, I share six essential lessons from my stay in the ashram in India and how leaders can apply them to enhance their presence, empathy, self-awareness, potential, mindfulness, and authenticity in their leadership roles.

Each lesson is accompanied by a reflective coaching question to inspire full integration of the learning.

The aim of integrating these lessons is to support leaders in achieving significant and sustainable improvements in results, success, and fulfillment at the individual, team, and organizational levels.
