The Coaching Habit
Effective leaders “boss” less, and coach more. The essence of coaching lies in helping others and unlocking their potential. By doing so, you share responsibility, don’t find yourself working as hard, and can have a greater impact.
Enlightened Rebel Leadership
Enlightened Rebels recognize the need to question some of the long-accepted notions around leadership that are no longer relevant. They find better ways to lead and create inspired workplaces.
Go Directly to Jail
“Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.” is a well-known instruction from the board game Monopoly. In this post, we link it to the first guiding principle on our Enlightened Rebel Roadmap... Practice Facilitative Leadership. Without it, you won't make much progress.
The Enlightened Rebel Roadmap
Making the shift to new paradigm leadership is easier said than done. Here’s a roadmap to guide you on your journey.
Create a Culture of Listening
Culture Renovation - How can we renovate the culture that exists in our practices to better nurture and empower our teams?
The New Leadership Paradigm
In this post we highlight the principles of a new paradigm of leadership to replace the old, dominant, hierarchical, command-and-control paradigm.
Network of Teams or Series of Silos?
The Enlightened Rebels Principle, Networked Structure, is all about working as a network characterized by interpersonal connection and effective communication.
Leaders Who Coach Are Creating Better Workplaces
Coaching is more than a skill, it’s a new leadership style that brings out the best in everyone and creates value all-around.

In Search of “Good Work”
Bad Work doesn’t have to be accepted as the norm. We can create workplaces that honor the unique capabilities and creativity of every single person.
Leading Your Practice
Make the switch from a frustrated parent to a collaborative partner.
Collective Leadership
Circumstances and markets change rapidly as information flows faster. Rather than controlling through a top-down process and hierarchy, organizations can achieve better results by inspiring and empowering people to pursue their work with a high degree of freedom, responsibility, and accountability.
Networked Structure
Technology and connectivity has increased our ability to self-organize and be more collaborative. Working as a network of teams allows us to organize with many different kinds of connections while maintaining a high level of autonomy, replacing the hierarchical organization systems of the past.
Radical Transparency
Radical transparency and leveraging technology equip team members with abundant real-time information, increasing the speed and accuracy of decisions. Many organizations are assuming an “open by default” information sharing philosophy.
Intrinsic Motivation
Next-stage organizations allow members the freedom to be their passionate, motivated, authentic, and diverse selves in the pursuit of tasks that fit individual interests, talents, and strengths.
Purpose & Values
Organizations are changing from a primarily profit-driven focus to a longer-term visionary purpose model. The end result is healthy, sustainable business profitability.
