Introduction to Conscious Leadership
Welcome to "Leading with Light: Choosing Conscious Leadership When You're Ready for More," a journey that invites you to transform your approach to leadership and life. As co-authors and principals at Plenty Consulting, Jennifer Mulholland and Jeff Shuck, we have dedicated our careers to helping leaders and organizations around the world embrace a more conscious, aware, aligned, and intentional way of leading. Conscious leadership is not just another leadership technique; it is a call to be more aware, aligned, and intentional in how you live, lead, and work. It's about being you, all of you, in your entirety – the beautiful, the bold, and even the imperfect. This approach is fundamentally different from the typical leadership trainings that focus on tactics and what you need to do to be a better leader. Instead, it's about getting to know yourself, your unique way, your style, your presence, your passions, and what you stand for.
