Finance Monthly - April 2022

“What leadership qualities would bring about the results you most want?” All of these questions are about personal agency. Agency is about putting your authentic self into action – actually doing what you know to do. It’s about taking what matters and creating something wildly innovative – for you, your family or your business. Why should more business professionals consider working with a coach? Success in business is about much more than making the numbers work. It’s an expression of who you are. How you show up. Leadership is about being clear and confident. Walking the walk. Modelling for your team. Making sure you’re thoughtful about your actions so they align with your goals. Prioritising what actually matters in both the short and long term – fluidly. And acting on all of it at the best time. Powerful business professionals go further with less. Rather than reacting to the latest crisis, they act from their centre. Being effective in all these areas – simultaneously – requires business professionals to be supremely self-aware and open to personal growth. Engaging a coach is an act of self-care - and it’s ambitious. You get to work in a safe space to explore blind spots you don’t yet see. You learn how to translate great ideas into great results. You choose to increase your enjoyment of your work by learning how to stay out of the weeds and into inspiration. You get traction in areas where you’ve been struggling, so you grow and learn. You recover your agency so you feel calm, centred, and clear. You learn to enjoy your work and your life because they complement one another. Thoughtful, self-aware leaders look after their own inner systems. They create the best outcomes. Isn’t that the bottom line? “Success in business is about much more than making the numbers work. It’s an expression of who you are. How you show up.” Finance Monthly. Ca r ee r & Pe r sona l Deve l opmen t 37
