Of course the two are connected, and they use their heart to make a real difference in their organizations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">Bill George, one of my favorite well-known\u00a0examples of a mindful leader and also\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hbs.edu\/Pages\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Harvard Business School<\/span><\/a> Professor and\u00a0former Chairman and CEO of Medtronic, thinks that while business was focused in the 80s and 90s on creating knowledge workers, what will set great companies aside in this century is their ability to tap into people\u2019s hearts. In his book\u00a0Authentic Leadership\u00a0he claims tapping\u00a0employees\u2019\u00a0\u201cpassions and their desires to make a difference through their work\u201d is what has enabled great companies like Procter &amp; Gamble, Microsoft, Dell, 3M, and J&amp;J to sustain growth even during down markets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">Yet companies can\u2019t expect to tap into their employees\u2019 passions and desires without leaders in touch with their hearts. The research HeartMath has done shows the heart contains intelligence. Many of my clients comment on how powerful it is to visualize connecting their head and heart before making decisions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">Bob Rosen, in his book\u00a0Grounded: How Leaders Stay Rooted In An Uncertain World, says \u201cThe best way for you to inspire passion and performance in others is first by aligning your own head and heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">Leadership is an interesting role to play; leaders are responsible for the work of their team and\u00a0guiding their employees to\u00a0make\u00a0sure they have the resources to thrive and\u00a0do their jobs well. Sometimes it feels like a leader\u2019s\u00a0hands are tied since they can\u2019t dive in and do the work for their employees. In working with\u00a0many leaders over the past few years, I\u2019ve heard how they are able make a true difference for their teams by leading with heart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">After all, what kind of legacy do we want to create? What do we want to be remembered for when we\u2019re gone? The great financial success of our company or the way we made a difference for those who work for us? How about both? Leading with heart makes this possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/conscioussuccess.net\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">http:\/\/ConsciousSuccess.net<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\">* Originally posted on <span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\">#CenterforCoachingCertification<\/span> by <span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\">#CathyLiska<\/span><span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--black\">.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">The best leaders lead with their heart more than their brain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":106,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[60],"tags":[50,47,46,49,48,51],"class_list":["post-105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-coaching","tag-coach-123","tag-coaching","tag-coaching-services","tag-coaching-success","tag-coaching-tips","tag-executive-coaching"],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":964,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7370,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105\/revisions\/7370"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/106"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coach-123.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
