What leadership do we need right now?

Hey, there. AmyK Here.

The more technology accelerates, the more valuable our humanity becomes.

Just last week a gentleman asked me,

"AmyK, what leadership do we need right now? "

and I said,

“Most Ego-led leaders are still asking, What can AI do for me?
But the better, more brilliant question is, Who are we becoming while we're using it?”
 
That's the leadership conversation I care about.

And there’s an even more brilliant fundamental question all leaders need to be asking.

​Watch this video to hear my full answer: 

When you start embodying the Heart-lit leadership we need in today’s fast-paced world, you get super clear on asking and answering: What actually matters most right now?

  • Not Who or what is screaming the loudest?
  • Not Who is going to be disappointed?
  • Not Who or what can I personally rescue?

What matters most?

Then make one decision from that answer.

Maybe it's delegating something. Maybe it's saying no. Maybe it's having the conversation you've been avoiding.

That's Heart-lit leadership in practice.

Soft heart. Firm spine. Clear priorities.
Heart-lit leaders know how to access the wisest most brilliant parts of themselves when it matters most – when you’re under pressure.
 
This means, Shifting from the Eye of the Ego to the Eye of the Heart, moving from seeing through fear, protection, judgment, and the need to be right to seeing through presence, compassion, truth, and possibility.
 
It’s not about getting rid of the Ego, it’s about choosing what leads: protection or possibility, contraction or connection, proving or presence.

 

In a world becoming more and more automated, how do we become more deeply human?

From my Heart to yours, hugs,

AmyK
