Great Minds Think A-Like
Histories greatest minds had one thing in common - They all report to do their best creative thinking outdoors in nature on long walks. Neuroscientist Shane O’Mara speaks about the power of walking, how it works on the brain and body to make us smarter, happier and healthier. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Aristotle and Charles Darwin all actively prescribed to walking. Studies highlight the impact of walking and nature on our physiology, our capacity to innovate and problem solve.
I created The Human Edge program with this knowledge in mind. Walking has always been a time of clarity for me personally and I have noticed that many of my clients shift perspective when they are outdoors enjoying a meeting with space to breath and think and move. It seems obvious but sadly many great leaders within businesses these days just don’t prioritise this time. Causing them great loss and exhaustion, foggy mind and an inability to make the best decisions for not only themselves but for their team.
I often ask clients where they do their best thinking? Sadly many have to dig for a time when they were last un-interrupted. Some suggest that the only time they can take that moment to think is if they lock themselves in the bathroom, or are sitting in heavy traffic. Taking the time to think freely and recalibrate has become a blissful memory.
It’s common knowledge that when you are the leader of your business everybody wants a piece of you. Your peers, your staff, your clients, your suppliers. Then when you head home it’s the same thing leaving very little breathing space.
Today in this new space of a global pandemic clients have reported working harder than ever before and what appears to be a common theme is that the top performers are really standing out, working really long hours making sure their people and clients are ok coupled with BAU. The under-performers… well they are also standing out they are no longer able to be masked by their higher functioning peers who have, thus far, been carried along.
So how do you create a space just for you, stakeholder free, unplugged from any interruptions to vent, problem solve, innovate, explore new possibilities and think strategically about your business, about what you want and what you know needs to happen?
This is where ‘The Human Edge’ program comes in. Based on scientific research, experience and proven results this program will take you to new heights, heights you didn’t realise were possible. The Human Edge Program is the answer to lifelong success, health and wellbeing and that much needed and now scientifically proven time to think.
I have worked hard to support the incredible leaders we have in this country and I truly stand by this results based program. I am looking forward to bringing you the support you need in your high performing role. Great minds think alike, it’s now your turn to move forward to support yourself and therefor your team and business.
I look forward to meeting you, learning more about your needs and getting out in the great outdoors.
