Leaders exert superpowers with words, actions and behaviors on significant ‘individuals’ – team members, colleagues, board members, regulators and this potential list keeps on expanding to new orbits with age, experiences and responsibilities. In today’s competitive business world – time is currency and hence all interactions must lead to a potential business benefit or an outcome.
The pedestal of ‘Non-stop Doing’ sparks the creative genius and ignite these significant ‘individuals’ to do their best. Doing equals Achieving. The pedestal since most of the time is accelerated by both internal and external stimulus can potentially backfire too. ‘The Non-stop Doing’ can sometimes, overwhelm us.
We may feel that we are inadequate, lack faith in ourselves and fear to trust our intuition. All superstructures are merely an upward extension of an existing structure above a baseline – the baseline which is the bedrock – the foundation: ‘The SELF’. Leading Minds helps secure a solid baseline – so that Organizations can build their ambitions with these leaders who are ‘The Superstructures’.
When Doing More does NOT equal to Achieving More, we need to Pause. Embracing the demand of ‘Non-stop Doing’ by shifting attention. Achieving more not by Doing. But By Pausing and By Reflecting.
Leading Minds, proposes an alternate way of working – To pause ‘The Doer’ and enable ‘The Feeler’ and ‘The Thinker’. Innovate working by Fueling ‘The Feeling’ AND Expanding ‘The Thinking’
‘The Doer’ when supported in the right degree with ‘The Feeler’ and ‘The Thinker’ can accelerate and expand to the newer orbits of ‘Doing’.
The never-ending demanding environments expects Leaders to possess expansive bandwidths of heart and mind. Leaders need to demonstrate the visceral and intellectual experience.
To firm the power on one side they need to roll up the sleeves, get their hands dirty, and get to work with the team AND on the other side they need to embrace the paradoxes, navigate uncertainty, maintaining the calm and providing confidence to the senior stakeholders that we are moving in the right direction
Living this experience can feel like a roller coaster ride where leaders can sometimes feel losing their way in the blind alleys: seeking assurance, confidence and sounding board.
Professional leadership journeys are filled with uncertainties. Only with the right nudges one can correspond and resonate with the elusive ‘Goal’ and feel that the pursuit is worthy of time, effort and energy.

Amrita comes with about two decades of rich experience in Leadership Development. She uses key concepts from behavioural sciences based on cutting edge research from Neuroscience that encourages learners to become questers by observing behavioural patterns and examining thinking. She practices creative, immersive and experiential methods of learning. These experiences stretches the mindset of the adult learners and pushes them to explore their dichotomies. In turn these shifts also support in furthering learning by expanding the meaning of the ‘Self’. As a leadership development facilitator, her endeavour is to create a workplace which is high performing, essentially where individuals find meaning and value. She is deeply inspired by Philosophy, Psychology, Literature, Stories and Poetries especially Hindi Poetry and Sufism. Personally, she loves writing for social impact and change. Most of her work is thought provoking, written in English and Hindi and can be explored here on Substack@amritanawal and her blog called Alive
