In The Spotlight

Coaching & Inspiring High-Performance Leaders with Dr Johan Beukes


Listen Later

Dr Johan Beukes is one of the most well-known leadership coaches in South Africa and the founder and director at Dr Johan Beukes Leadership Coaching. Johan specialises in high-performance leaders, helping and guiding them to become the best they can be.

He joins Liezl to discuss leadership, the importance of factoring social and emotional well-being in life decisions and his proven formula for coaching and inspiring high performance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • From a young age, Johan felt that he wanted to make a positive difference in the world, at first he wasn’t sure how he was going to achieve this but now he feels like coaching was his calling, to help others.
  • Leaders frequently make emotionally fuelled decisions without considering the wider ramifications for others, or themselves or recognising their own bias.
  • People can easily become fixated on just one element or part of their lives, making them unbalanced and mentally unwell.
  • Those who go through Johan’s processes can at least say they did what was possible to broaden their consciousness and awareness and live as regret-free as they are able in life.
  • Johan helps people align their head and heart, helping with both decision-making and acceptance of those decisions too.
  • People need to be inspired and one of Johan’s key aims is to inspire people, to motivate them to create the life they have always wanted to live.
  • Interpersonal leadership is an art and a science, you need to be able to lead teams effectively to perform well as a leader.
  • A lot of Johan’s steps can sound very simple but they are things that are frequently not prioritised, such as celebrating wins and contemplating things that you and your team have achieved.

 

BEST MOMENTS

'I have a deep sense that it's work that has been given to me’

‘There is a necessity to make decisions to help your mental health’

‘Sit for a moment and think, what is the impact of this decision socially’

‘One of the most important things is what do I want to do, what would I love to do’

‘I take leaders beyond performance where you actually get into a flow state, into a zone’
