The Leadership Journey

The Leadership Journey is founded on the premise that we’ve progressed a more open philosophy of principled leadership that is based on a foundation of pilgrim virtues such as compassion, honesty, gratitude, truth, purpose and love, in business relationships. This approach to leadership is supported by the teachings of great business leaders like Robin Sharma, Lance Sectarian  and  Sue Kenney.

In this presentation, Sue will address an approach to leadership in business and life that is based on defining intentions using the metaphor of being on a journey that is changing all the time. By setting goals, based on our intentions we increase the possibility of acheiving the intended result. After winning a gold medal at the world master’s rowing championships, Sue was suddenly downsized from a career in the corporate telecom industry.

You’ll hear amazing stories about courage and discipline as Sue gracefully integrates the lessons of walking 780 kilometers in Spain over 29 days, with her business and athletic expertise, offering a unique perspective to a more simple approach to adjusting to the unknown. Through her example, you’ll see how you can apply this approach in both personal and business scenarios, to improve how you adapt to changes in your Leadership Journey.

Planning to Win

Sue leverages the lessons learned and experiences encountered when she committed a dream to become a world class rower. Sue made the crew that ultimately won a gold medal at the FISA World Masters Rowing Championships in 2001. By re-framing concepts of teamwork in a crew situation and goal setting as it aligns to her vision of a gold medal, Sue shares real life experiences that metaphorically teach concepts for effective leadership. The process is the same whether you are training to win a race or accomplishing everyday business or personal goals.

Efficient Thinking

Do you have a million ideas that you want to accomplish but don’t have the time to complete any of them? If you are thinking about the same things over and over again, it’s possible you are wasting valuable energy on ideas that aren’t going anywhere. You’ll hear stories and learn how to sort the ideas in your mind, to give you more energy to get things done, with less time. Leave your day planner at home. This is all about organizing your thoughts so you can be more successful and have more time.

The Power of Surrender

You cannot control everything that happens in your life, so save the stress, take a deep breath and learn about the power of ‘surrender’. Sue tells stories about her recent solo pilgrimage that involved a 780-km walk across the north of Spain on the pilgrimage route known as the Camino de Santiago. As the 29 days unfolded, this life-altering event revealed astonishing lessons. With the grace of a humble pilgrim, Sue imparts the secrets of the power of surrender and the impact of awareness in giving one choice about everyday personal or business decisions.
