My mobile buzzed on silent mode at 11.30pm on the 17th July. I had already tucked in for the night. Curiosity got the better of me. I reached out to have a peek at the message. My friend a trader who obviously watches the markets like a hawk, said "Malaysian Airlines plane shot down. Tune in to BBC immediately"


Shock horror! What had the world come to? So many people killed for no reason. Innocent lives taken by mistake. In subsequent days we read of how bodies fell out of the sky. Some with fear on their faces as their bodies were recovered.


The first thought that struck me was "consciousness" Are people conscious about what they are doing? Do they have an intention to do a certain act or are they doing things out of routine, because they have always done it that way. Or did this come from an order delivered by someone with authority?In any case this drew a parallel to what I see in the corporate world.

Now I know I was searching within me to raise my level of consciousness. I met other "light workers" who did much of the same. We were viewed as people who were spiritual looking for something we could be passionate about. What we didn't realize is that this journey to our inner world came with a bunch of goodies.


In searching for myself I tapped into the wellspring of creativity and confidence inside me. From dealing with figures and spreadsheets I now worked with people, developing them to the next level.


Today I see corporations crying for help. Structure Anton Stralman Jersey , rules and process coupled with unending pressures of delivery on myriad levels, has led to people living like zombies. Where are they going? What are they doing? Is there any meaning in their life?


The journey while simple is deemed to be difficult by most leaders. A tiny percentage of corporate leaders truly understand behavior and yet they manage thousands of people.


Aubrey Daniels of ADI (Aubrey Daniels International) the great performance management leader observes that leaders are leading in ways that are counter-productive to reinforcing employees. "What they don't realize is that business is behavior and behavior is business"
