We delight in the beauty of the butterfly but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

More than ever, people are looking to have meaningful jobs in companies with a clear purpose for a better world.

People and leaders don’t want to waste their time and talent anymore

  • Purpose comes to a great deal from what you do for people and how you treat them.
  • All current leadership and management literature converge: diversity & inclusion, collective intelligence, empowerment, authenticity … The key to succeed in business and to attract talent is to treat each person as a someone, not a something.

As a 21st century business leader – senior executive or board director –, you want your leadership to evolve. You want to feel a better alignment between your values, your attitudes and your actions; and you want to grow further as an effective and inspirational leader. You want to leave a lasting, positive legacy. With your important people responsibilities, you have the opportunity to adopt and support human-centered leadership and management practices.

Where to start ?

  • With yourself: do you work and lead in line with your aspirations and values ? Are you paying attention to your own health, workload and stress level ? Are your role modelling authenticity, humility, empathic listening, recognition ?
  • With your team.s: do you fully leverage the power of collective intelligence ? Do you nurture psychological safety and accountability ? Are feelings and intuitions used for better decisions next to rational thinking ?
  • With your organisation: is maximum empowerment or self-management the default option ? Is your organisation an environment where people can deploy their talents, be creative, act with autonomy and responsibility ? Do they feel appreciated when bringing their whole self to the workplace ? Does your organisation foster authentic human connections ?
