The Power of Rituals

Tuesday, October 31st, 2006

Magic and rituals have long been connected. There is magic in any ceremony that we do, whether it of a routine nature, such as making a wish on our birthday, or whether it is a sophisticated ritual involving all kinds of movements, lights and music. In both cases we are using the power of the […]

Plant Your Dream Today

Sunday, October 29th, 2006

It’s the end of autumn. You can feel the winter around the corner. It has been just as I wished it to be a wonderful Indian summer that lasted until October. Now the leaves are falling and the colors are fading away. Its time to go in. Time for introspect and dreaming. It’s time to […]

Anita Roddick - A Transformational Leader

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

I got a lot of responds to my last post. Women were asking me how come I am speaking in one breath about Feminine Leadership and mentioning Al Gore as a good example of Feminine Leadership?
The answer is very simple – Feminine Leadership is not about man or woman. It’s about cherishing and putting forward […]

Global Care - A New Leadership Style

Saturday, October 21st, 2006

Yesterday I’ve seen a movie that I believe every person on this planet should see. It has to do with the future of this planet and with our moral obligation to our children.
The movie is: “An Inconvenient Truthâ€? – If you care about this planet and you care about the world your children will live […]

Balanced Life - Take Time Off

Thursday, October 12th, 2006

I took today a day off. After the hectic times we have experienced in the last 2 weeks (see my blog entry from October 10), I decided that Nisandeh and I deserve a day off to refill our batteries.
We took a whole day off, turned off our mobiles, got away from the computers and phones […]

Leadership Model

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

I believe that the fastest way to grow is by modeling. No, not your usual Vogue or Cosmopolitan model concept of tall, thin walking sticks, but the modeling of someone that is successful already and learning from them how to do it.
That’s the way we all learned when we were young. Our parents said to […]

Courageous Leadership

Tuesday, October 10th, 2006

Courageous leadership is something that most people attach to daring to do things other will not do. However there is another way we can look at courage and courageous leadership.
Did you ever have a day, when anything you touched fell or broke?
A day when you truly believed that Murphy’s first law “If anything can go […]

Management or Leadership

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

In the last two weeks people kept asking me: “Why did you stop writing in your blog?”. My answer was that I couldn’t find the time to do it. The respond to it was: “But you are such a great organizer and time management is one of your strong points”. It’s true; however sometimes there […]
