10 Jul 2024
Marika Messager is a consciousness researcher, teacher, advisor, and the founder of ConsciousLeadership.org. She was previously Head of Cash Equities at Société Générale. She joins us to discuss what conscious leadership is and how it helps us to bring more of our humanity to how we lead. We talk about letting go of outdated leadership archetypes and returning to a place of quiet confidence in our humanity, personal story and natural way of behaving – something she learned the hard way as a young investment banker on a trading floor dominated by men. We also explore how to find personal agency and overcome survival mode that keeps us in roles and behaviours that no longer serve us. Topics discussed *The three dimensions of conscious leadership *Letting go of trying to fit in as a woman in a male-dominated environment *How to overcome survival mode and a mindset of lack so that you can transcend the past and create a different future *Being deliberate in choosing how you show up so you can find your agency and personal power *Where to start on your journey to being more conscious in how you lead and navigate your career Learn more about Marika on LinkedIn, work with her or connect on Instagram or Facebook -- Clarify what you want for your career and how you want to lead with the Discover What Gives You Meaning online workshop FREE RESOURCE: Chart your course for 2024 using this short, guided teaching that builds on the 4 leadership themes for the year that I shared in Episode 26 Book a free 1x1 coaching discovery call or reach out for speaking, leadership development or culture and talent consulting for your company Accelerate your career advancement with the Get Promoted online course Find me on LinkedIn and Instagram Sign up to receive my leadership letter, get discounts and early access to events Sponsor an episode
