It&#39;s a complex world. We&#39;re diving in and out of chaos; leaders need tools suitable to this complexity.   Bringing Zen into the boardroom and classroom, seasoned leader, educator, and author Eric Kaufmann (@Eric Kaufmann)brings his three decades of conscious leadership practices to discuss ego, integration, and purpose.   &quot;The work of a conscious leader is a place where an unrelenting commitment to results combines with an unyielding regard for spirit. &quot; - Eric Kaufmann   Key Takeaways:   Ego-myopia: Transcending ego-myopia demands practice, awareness, and unwavering commitment. Expert Eric Kaufmann identifies three fundamental human needs: the craving to be right, to be liked, and to possess might. Leaders must undergo emotional maturation and pursue vertical development to effectively dismantle the ego, enabling them to engage and operate from the realms of wisdom, love, and power.   Humility: Humility is to be grounded, of the earth, and fundamentally human. Humility is not a skill to acquire but a state to embody. Grounded in the essence of humanity, it signifies acknowledging equality with others, standing eye to eye and shoulder to shoulder without claiming superiority or inferiority.   Showing and Opening Up: In leadership, embracing Ken Wilbur&#39;s Integral theory involves the imperative to wake up, grow up, clean up, and, notably, show up. Central to this is opening up, a vital aspect of awakening to the present moment, integrating past experiences and fostering genuine connection. Opening up entails engaging the heart, enabling leaders to perceive situations from diverse perspectives with discernment and detachment.   Conscious Leadership: A transformative journey from self-centeredness to life-centeredness. Our identities become more porous as we evolve, shifting from a singular focus to embracing multifaceted versions of ourselves. In navigating today&#39;s complex world, characterized by agility and innovation, leaders succeed in transcending ego-driven resistance, fostering a more porous and spacious mindset that enables adaptability, innovation, and compassionate collaboration.     Sponsors and Promotions:   Cozy Earth: Named one of Oprah&#39;s favorite things for five years running, Cozy Earth&#39;s best-selling bamboo bedding, clothing, and more are available to you now with an exclusive offer for Mark Divine Show listeners.
