#93 Gido Shimanski: How can you improve your flow in your professional and personal life? What stops flow in life and how can you overcome these blockages? Why leaders in compagnies or any organisation it is important to be in flow?

Gido has had a fortunate international career on stage and screen as a dancer and actor. He figured in James Bond movies, played leading roles in several Broadway musicals like Cats. Gido now works as an international teacher and coach with senior executives, professional footballers, musical theatre actors and the occasional pop-star.

Gido has worked closely with The Royal Academy of Music in London, The Voice College, as well as Fusion5 Performance in Germany. He was co-founder of The Network for Transformational Leaders and a founding member of The Change Makers.

In recent years Gido has specialised himself in the flow of Life and how you can create your own flow that brings out the best of you.

'We constantly block ourselves in our growth. I was a good actor, yet a lot of self-sabotage kept me from discovering my true self. So I worked on it for many years. Last year I had the main role in the musical My Fair Lady. For the the first time in my career I could play the part with a clear role and no judgements in my head. The monkey in my head that called me a fraude disappeared. It was my best performance ever, according to many people'.

Others allways see the greatness in us. Yet we often refuse to see it in ourselve. We stay with our thoughts in the head of others. We do what we think that they think what's the best for us. Who choose his study because he was advised to do so by the schoolteacher or parents?

How can we be the needle in the compass of our life? Where can we adapt our inner GPS so the destination we set of for will be reached.

Gido Shimanski shares beautifull insights in how flow works, how patterns and preconditions in our mind can be changed and how you can really grow as a person!

'When we get rid of preconditions, hindering thoughts we can get access to our true gutfeeling, our intuïtion, what causes the flow of life'.

Gido explains how 'forgiveness' plays an important role in the process. Beside you will learn more about the steps to get more in flow in life!

#92 David Gershon. How does a person grow? What is the process that one can evolve to a higher form of conciousness? What is possible for you, your business, the world and how can we create that?

'Have a clear vision of what you want, don't focus on the past. It will transform itself on the way.'

David is the co-founder and CEO of Empowerment Institute and has been called “the number one expert on social change" in the world. He has been a global leader for four decades in applying behavior change, community empowerment and transformative social change methodologies to address humanity’s greatest challenges and opportunities.

'There are 4 major questions to ask in transformation: What do you want? What new kind of behavior do you want to see in yourself and/or your employees? Where are you now and what to you need? Most of all: are you willing to grow and go to the most uncomfortable places of yourself?'

A major academic research study has described their methodology as “unsurpassed in changing behavior. He has been working with all major companies all over the world like Coca cola, Unilever, American Express and many more. Over the past four decades the initiatives he’s designed have won many awards and achieved much recognition.

#91 James Bampfield: A deep and inspiring conversation about the true self as a leader of the future. Managers, entrepreneurs and actually every human being needs to find their unique self in order to evolve - from homo armor to homo amor! That is the new story that we need to tackle all the challenges of a world in transformation. Let love rule! 

Now who is James? It a question that he has poundered on In India for 4 days, 18 hours a day… The only answer at the end of that exploration was a blank page. ‘That is the ‘true self’ aspect of me’, James says.

'When someone asks me how I am doing, I often don't know what to answer. As a father I might be doing well, but as a friend I might be very sad. We don't have a genuily unified self''

Yet of course in real life, whatever that might be, James studied at Cambridge University travelled the whole world for many years on a personal quest, learning the school of life. At the age of 33 he finally decided he wanted more stability, and started my work as a coach and facilitator, giving workshops and trainings both in organisations and in open format to enhance transformation and chance for a better world with more pleasure.

He is the founder o Quinx, an international consultancy agency. He is a master in meditation, host of the podcast Spirituality for today and co-founder of a very exciting new project The Crossing on which we will talk more.

Leaders of the future need to go through 3 phases. They need to wake up, grow up and show up and this on various areas in life. If they show themselves in the world as who they really are they will succeed in life.

'Vulnerability is a key element to showing up as a leader. It is often associated with weakness. Yet true vulnarability is leaving behind all fears, shame, rejection.... It does not mean you have to share them to the whole world.'

Vulnerability is not showing or sharing your past, it is showing up in the now. If you have doubts you can share the actual doubt. Still we have to make the decision weather you share this information with others.

James also explains how we can go from homo armor to homo amor as a true guidance for a new life and how The Crossing, an inspiring and transformational event in Holland assist you with that. Furthermore we explore how you as unique self can show up in the world and how you relate to the rest of the world.

'We don't stand on ourselves! We need to get out of closed tribe to find solutions for the problems of today'.

Thank you James for sharing your beautiful insights and wisdom.

#87 Isabelle Gonnissen. Do you know that negativity sticks longer in your mind? Do you know we tend to believe negative things rather then positivity? How can you change your mindset to a more positive one without forcing it?

With Isabelle Gonnissen we dive into the topic of positivity. Isabelle is the founder of '30 Days without Complaining' that celebrates its fifth anniversary in January 2023 and she launched the campaign "Join in and Make a P". In the meantime, Isabelle wrote 2 books 'Choose Positive' and 'Choose consciously' about her passion: to be more conscious and to choose for a positive mindset.

Indeed, Isabelle believes that we can actively choose for a positive attitude in life. She is the perfect next guest for the podcast Inspiring Leadership.

'Knowing what takes energy and what gives you energy is so important. Stop doing things that don't give you energy. Your personal energymanagement is crucial for a happy life'.

Being surrounded by positive people is another great tool to support you to change your mindset. However you can start by being positive towards others. That's why Isabelle started the P-sign campaign.

'By making a P-sign (of Positivity) you get more conscious about what is positive around you. For example when someone brings you a cup of coffee you give a P-sign. In that way you create more positivity in your life and that of others.'

We also talk about how to deal with all the outer negative circumstances.

'We can not change the outer world. We are responsible for the reaction we give to it. Start to put a small smile on your face and you will feel differently'.

And as dessert we share insigts on how to be and stay in the flow of life!

Thank you very much Isabelle for this beautiful interview.

#86 Lieven Taillie. Wat kan geschiedenis en kunst ons leren over leiderschap? Hoe beleefden de groten der aarden zoals Helmut Kohl en Francois Mitterand (gewezen presidenten van Duitsland en Frankrijk) hun leiderschap? Wat maakte dat zij slaagden in hun opdrachten?

Lieven Taillie mocht velen van hen interviewen en diepgaande gesprekken met hen voeren. Als gerenommeerd Europees journalist en gewezen commercieel directeur van de Muntschouwburg wijst hij op het belang van geschiedenis en kunst in een geslaagd leiderschap.

'Nieuwsgierigheid is de grote drijfveer in zijn leven, het is de tegenhanger van angst.' Zo stelt Lieven. Verder is hij gepassioneerd door kunst en geschiedenis.

'Geschiedenis geeft perspectief. Er zijn periodes van optimisme en groei, daarna volgen periodes van moeilijkheid en angst. Ik vrees dat we daar nu in zitten. Maar daar zitten net ook een oneindig aantal mogelijkheden voor groei en verbetering.'

Over het leiderschap van de grote leiders van Europa vertelt Lieven: ' Alle leiders hebben een hoge mate van theatraliteit. Maar de bescheidenheid van de grote veranderaars, zoals Jean Monnet, de founding father van Europa is en blijft voor mij een bron van inspiratie.'

We verdiepen ons in de snelheid van dit leven. Lieven merkt op dat de grote leiders fervente wandelaars waren, zoals President Adenauer en Jean Monnet. Onze huidige leiders zoals bv Verhofstadt zijn koersfanaten.

'Koersen geeft een heel ander perspectief. We hebben traagheid nodig, vertraging geeft rust en nieuwe inzichten. Wandelen is altijd een omweg maken. Je vertrekt naar een doel maar je komt altijd op dezelfde plek terug.'

Verder onderstreept hij het belang van een goede entourage van elke leider.

'Je wil geen hofhouding rond je. Dat is de valkuil van macht. Iedereen wil in het licht van de zonnekoning staan en niet altijd met de beste bedoelingen. Omring je met vertrouwelingen en krachtige medewerkers.'

Laat je meeslepen in dit boeiende en inspirerende gesprek vol geschiedenis en kunst in podcast nummer 86.

Dankjewel Lieven voor deze inspirerende podcast.
