Today’s powerful leaders believe that good business is good for people, good for the world, and understand that their actions have global impact. The critical success factor is the consciousness of the leader. It impacts every decision, every conversation, every leadership moment. It requires leaders to know themselves and showing up authentically, taking business actions that align with the heart. Getting there is not always easy. How do people create consciousness in leadership? In the Spirit of Leadership is Cheryl Esposito’s invitation to leaders throughout the world; an invitation to lead from the heart with honesty, vision, and courage.
