Radical Transformational Leadership with Dr Monica Sharma

Demystifying complexity for wide-spread informed participation Everyday leadership is anchored in universal values, the ability to shift unworkable systems as well as norms and mindful implementation. This requires us to learning-in-action programs in order to foster leadership of others. In these learning-in-action platforms, we individually develop our agency; and then we learn to journey together in resonance with others, generating synergistic results. These platforms are spaces for enhancing shared leadership-- the ability to both lead transformation and to support others to lead transformation. The tools and templates related to the conscious full spectrum approach are simple, universally applicable and accessible, enabling ordinary people make extraordinary contributions.

Not to ‘go it alone’ is about collective action and partnerships that generate results. As we journey through life, we bring our unique gifts for humanity, and sometimes, we must be able to ‘stand-alone’. Let’s explore what this means to us as we work together.
