  1. Full-Spectrum Leadership “Have you ever wondered why there are some many books on leadership? Well I think I figured it out.” “The answer is because no one knows precisely what it is. If we could all agree on a definition of “leadership” then the definitive book on leadership would have been written a long time ago.”

  2. Full-Spectrum Leadership “To prove my point, I did a search on book titles with the word leadership in the Amazon.com website. The search yielded over 189,000 hits.” “A search on the words leadership development yielded over 13,000 book titles. Clearly there are many different perspectives on leadership.

  3. Full-Spectrum Leadership “I approach the topic of leadership from the same perspective that I approach the analysis of all human motivations - from the perspective of consciousness. Viewed from the perspective of consciousness, it is possible to categorize the list of book titles on Amazon.com into single or multiple categories that relate to the level of leadership consciousness the authors are focusing on.”

  4. Full-Spectrum Leadership “Each of the authors is giving us a perspective on leadership that reflects who they are, what they believe is important, and their experiences. They are writing from the perspective of what they believe or value, and what they believe or value is a reflection of the levels of consciousness they are operating from, and consequently the levels of consciousness they are writing from.”

  5. Full-Spectrum Leadership “This of course is what I am doing also. However, what is different, in my case, is that I am taking a full-spectrum approach to consciousness. What I am saying is that all these different perspectives are important and each perspective can be located within a framework of consciousness known as the Seven Levels of Consciousness model.”

  6. Full-Spectrum Leadership • I am also saying something else that is very important….. • There must be a link between – • Self-Actualization • The Evolution of Personal Consciousness • Leadership Development • Why? • Because they are all linked to the same big idea.

  7. Full-Spectrum Leadership The big idea is as follows…. The levels of consciousness an organisation operates from are a reflection of the personal consciousness of the leaders. Therefore organisational transformation begins with the personal transformation of the leaders. The personal transformation of the leaders is what leadership development is about. Full-spectrum organisations are led by full-spectrum leaders. Full-spectrum organisations are the most successful organisations on the planet.
