ABSTRACT The author, founder of Leading With Aliveness, describes how her varied leadership background and lived experience has led to her current researching and advising. She describes what she terms the aliveness effect: “To lead with aliveness, we open to the universal energy—feeling its force, finding its form, and shaping it through practice. This practice begins with the Power of the Pause: our capacity to be in the eye of the storm, and from there, the other powers unfurl like sails in the wind.”… “The Power of Perspective is deep attention. We soften the gaze, scan the horizon, and tune into the currents of change.”… “The Power of Practice is embodied intention. With practice, we gain confidence; from confidence comes relaxation and flow, then timing and speed. Without practice, we lack inner strength and stability.” Other descriptions: “The Power of the Pride is optimal performance, a collective presence, a coherent force. The Power of Play is pure adventure, at the edge of what is known, in contact with the unknown.” She also cites academics such as John Coates, research fellow in neuroscience and finance at the University of Cambridge; and Dacher Keltner, professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley.
