Sow to Speak was created to support established and emerging leaders in raising their emotional intelligence, presentation, and communication skills. It begins with paying attention to your energy boosters and drainers in your leadership style. Once you’re aware of these, you have more control over how you respond and act. You become the leader you want to be.
Your thoughts affect your emotions which inform your actions. By shifting your mindset where needed, “sowing,” and planting in your mind what is helpful and more powerful, you are becoming a more conscious leader, both verbally and non-verbally; you are waking up to the way you show up in the world.
You are choosing to lead from a place of knowing yourself better (self-awareness), and you’re able to shift gears within yourself (self-regulation) when needed. From there, you begin cultivating a deeper understanding of relating and connecting with others (social awareness) and working better together (social management). Conscious leaders beget conscious leaders. You are leading the way to create more grounded, generous, and genuine leaders that our world needs now more than ever.
By dedicating and committing yourself to strengthen these four competencies of emotional intelligence, you become the leader you want to be and inspire others to do the same.
- Self-Awareness
- Self-Regulation
- Relationship Awareness
- Relationship Management
The result? A sustainable and cohesive shift of trust, connection, and courage from the inside out. You may find yourself taking the initiative to have difficult conversations that may have been avoided in the past. (I know, right?) You will have more self-motivation to create clearer communication styles and systems department and organization-wide, and increase your confident presence whether presenting pitches to clients, updates to the board, instruction to and solutions with direct reports, or ideas to each other.
Once you establish a genuine connection with yourself, you show up more present and clear for others, plain and simple. Why? Because it’s all an inside job. And with that comes the magic of increased engagement, retention, innovation, productivity, and profitability. It’s all connected.
Together, through your coaching engagement, we build the practices and plans needed for you to reach your goals and live a life of fulfillment on purpose. In a trusting and fully confidential environment, you’re invited to be honest with and about yourself, so you can make the changes needed to see your desired results become your reality. Pretty awesome!
My philosophy is that you already have what you need inside of you. I work with you to ask the right questions to help you uncover your own answers. That is the most empowering and effective way to make a life-long change. And, to be honest, there is an ulterior motive here because helping you be the best version of yourself inevitably benefits the rest of us. We need more conscious humans in the world who are doing their part to lead us in a way that makes our world a better place to be. Power in numbers. Let’s do it together.
