Question:
What do Meryl Streep, an F-16 pilot, Viktor Frankl, Mother Teresa, and Michael Phelps have in common?
Answer: Each of them made bold commitments. These commitments required that they practice something, over and over, in the face of enormous challenges, both internal and external. The growth and development produced by their commitment was reflected in extraordinary levels of self-mastery, and a quality of presence that both allowed remarkable effectiveness and inspired others.
Presence-Based Coaching is an emerging body of work that places leadership presence at the very core of our development. Presence is how we produce authenticity and trust. And, presence is the key to the essential qualities of choicefulness, creativity and resilience that enable us to function effectively in an increasingly complex and fragmented world.
