Publisher's Synopsis
True leadership cannot possibly reside within the old world of conventional wisdom. Conventional wisdom leaves us where we already are, on the same side of the threshold, in the very same place in which we started. In terms of leadership theory, conventional wisdom says that there are just two levels of practice: - Transactional Leadership (Level One) - Transformational Leadership (Level Two) Hidden in plain sight, however, is a radical new level of practice: - Transcendent Leadership (Level Three)Embedded within this book is a code which unlocks the reader's true potential, which will enable them to experience the preternatural magic of Transcendent Leadership in their own teams and organisations. The eight key dimensions are divided equally into two sections of four dimensions. Each dimension includes practices which enable the reader to understand and assimilate the fundamental knowledge that is needed in order to make the shift to Level Three. As each dimension is a call to action (i.e. it is an active, not a passive process), each one is associated with a verb. As such, the foundational dimensions are: 1.Knowing (The Key to Transcendence) 2.Seeing (Revealing Your Mission)3.Being (Becoming You)4.Aligning (The Shift to Third Level)The final half of the book, the last four dimensions, are cyclical in nature - these dimensions never end. They are all part of the cycle of leadership, a flow of endless circularity akin to the ebb and flow of the seasons - a process of stillness, birth, activity and rest.5.Connecting (The Centrality of Love)6.Creating (Opening to Infinite Possibility)7.Doing (Manifesting)8. Resting (The Mind-Spirit Energy Cycle)This code, when applied, will open the readership up to new understanding and rapid results, including: - Achieving the super-charged power of the flow state- Experiencing 'downloads' of information and guidance- Seeing into the emergent future- Shifting to a higher frequency of awareness- The ability to transmit energy to your staff and co-workers- Achieving deeper levels of cohesiveness within your team - Being on fire for your mission - Understanding how to channel and use subtle energies- Producing results - faster than ever before The key mission of Transcendent Leadership is to bring consciousness into the field of leadership practice. Consciousness is the key to understanding why Transcendent Leadership is so totally different to Transactional and Transformational Leadership. Transcendent Leadership moves beyond the small self to encapsulate divine, cosmic consciousness - shifting from small mind to Big Mind, from egoic understanding to unbounded awareness...and results that are rapid, outstanding and disruptive. The calling has never been stronger right now for all of us who are leaders to step into our divinity and to claim the gifts that the universe has for us. The time is right for us to extend these gifts to those that we lead, so that we can be an expression of the divine, of love, in the way that we lead and manage our organisations.
