In this episode, we dive deep into serenity and peace. Together with Martin, we explore whether it really is possible to achieve serenity in leadership and the benefits of developing such an approach. Sharing tools and tips that he has learned throughout his life, Martin explains why he believes as leaders there are times when we need to be proactive and other occasions when we need to lean back and chill.
KEY TAKEAWAY
“When you talk with people who are doing great things or have made astonishing discoveries connecting the dots and ask them when this happened, they rarely, if ever, say we got this in a seven-hour meeting. They say, oh yeah, it came to me whilst I was running, in the shower, washing my car or ironing my shirt. All sorts of stuff where you disengage from cognitive activity. This is when the intelligence of the heart and gut can bubble up and connect the dots for you.”
