The Essentials of Embodied Leadership
The role of leaders is changing. Whilst we sit and ponder the impact of AI on our future workforce, the shift of power has already begun.
Information is finding its way into the hands of those who need it faster and through fewer filters, enabling more autonomy in the workforce. Technology and greater access to data removes the need for middle managers to make routine decisions, which can now be automated with relative ease. So how have leaders responded?
Unsurprisingly, some of those who traditionally held the most power within their organisation have tried to flex their power through control, for example by building restricted access to information into the design of organisational systems and workflows.
Is this really the best thing that we, as leaders, can do? Rather than clinging desperately to what was, it's time to focus on what human-based leadership will require of us.
Our embodiment is what sets us apart from AI. Our ability to sense, feel, and be moved by others is what gives us a unique edge.
This short course provides an introduction to the concept of Embodied Leadership for self-leadership and leading others. It can be completed as a standalone course, or as preparation for the deeper dive course.
The course
This is a live, online course taking place via Zoom over six one-hour sessions.
The course is designed for leaders, managers, and supervisors who already recognise that traditional leadership training hasn't prepared them for the future that is emerging.
We will cover some of the essential and uniquely human capacities that are required for self-leadership and leading others.
This course is for you if you are:
-
Often feeling stressed or overwhelmed in your role
-
Noticing the gap between the responsibility of your role and how powerful you actually feel
-
Feeling uncertain about the future of your role
-
Finding it hard to connect with those you lead in an impactful way
-
Struggling to balance or switch between being a leader and the other roles you need to fulfil in your life
-
Ready to learn about and upskill yourself in the essential and uniquely human capacities you'll need for leading
During the course, we will explore the following topics together:
-
Self-leadership through embodiment
-
Creating psychological safety
-
Capacity-driven leadership and the role of boundaries in the workplace
-
How to empower yourself and others through developing essential followership skills
-
What it means to hold power and use it ethically and effectively

There will also be an option to add-on extra one-to-one coaching sessions with me online at a discounted rate during the course.
