In this learning module, you’ll come to understand more about your leadership and whether your mind, heart and actions are in alignment. How you engage in your leadership using a holistic leadership approach becomes a conscious choice that you make. By participating in this Holistic Leadership Development module of the Genuine Contact program, you’ll get to the very heart of how, what, when, and where to lead.
During your learning, growth and development as you go through this module, you are invited to reevaluate your choices, dreams, goals, boundaries, and the standards you have set for yourself in your leadership. A shift in perspective occurs that expands your leadership capacity.
A holistic leadership development approach is well worth adding to your leadership repertoire as you learn, grow and develop your leadership.

Being clear about your personal boundaries before they are crossed is an important life skill. Clear and upheld boundaries help to build relationships that are healthy, mutually respectful, supportive and caring. When you find yourself in uncertain or stressful situations, your boundaries can help to guide you in making the best decisions that will help keep you on your path.
Working with personal boundaries is also an important skill in your professional life. Whether you are a consultant supporting people in organizations to work more effectively together or a leader working to create a positive work environment and achieve your business goals, working with the people’s personal boundaries is a critical ingredient for achieving success. But it’s an ingredient not often explored.
Personal boundaries – we’ve all got them. At their core, your boundaries describe what you are available for and what you are not. The challenge is that many people in the world learn about their boundaries only once they’ve had a life experience where the boundary was crossed. Those situations that cause harm in relationships or maybe put an end to them altogether.
Develop a clear understanding of your personal boundaries and learn how to work with them effectively in the workplace – whether as a leader or working within a team.
