Leadership Begins With the Mind

In this unprecedented moment, it’s time for leaders to unlearn management as they’ve always known it and relearn how to be human. Potential Project helps executives to adopt a whole new playbook for leadership.

The Inner Playbook

The world has shifted, and nothing will go back to the way it was. A new future awaits. Ahead lies an opportunity to reshape ourselves, our leadership and our organizations into something very different.

But, how do leaders move forward with all that has been irreversibly changed?

Leadership for this moment requires a new playbook. And, this playbook starts inside, with the mind. When you learn how your mind works, and how to rewire it for agility, compassion, courage and openness, you can reimagine the future and the possibilities.

IKEA is one of the most well-known consumer brands in the world. For years, their commitment to the health and happiness of their people has been front and center, an integral part of their business strategy. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in the Spring of 2020, IKEA became a stand-out example of acting with urgency, agility and courage during a time of instability and uncertainty.

We always want our people to know that they are important. I have a strong belief that the way we are leading this company with mindfulness is the right thing to do. It’s so much in line with who we are and who we want to be. When we can see the benefits from our investment and the positive results not only in business, but in the atmosphere of the company, that’s enough of a proof point for me to know that this really works.

The Inner Playbooks

Potential Project’s Inner Playbook solutions don’t tell leaders how to lead or teach traditional managerial strategies. We help you to unlock new leadership from within by building a mind that is open, wise, compassionate, and courageous.

The Inner Playbook for Leadership in a Crisis

Leadership through uncertainty requires nimble pivots and difficult decisions. It means moving quickly and deftly, even while looking into an uncertain future. The Inner Playbook builds the mental agility that this kind of leadership demands.
