Inspired Leadership means to lead with the head, heart and hands; so that a person does not merely manage his/her people, but grows and inspires them, and creates more leaders. It requires that the leader assess themselves: how are they showing up, what is their purpose and guiding principles, ethics and values? Are they engaging in "good work": the act of bringing about more good in the lives of employees, clients, co-workers and communities? An inspired leader engages in Spirit-Centered Leadership, Servant Leadership, Situational Leadership, and Strategic Leadership.

During this highly interactive program participants assess themselves, the organization and their people-potential. They learn about key factors that differentiate leaders from managers. And they develop strategies and practices for growing themselves and developing their people. The program focuses on the points outlined in The Leadership Star™.
