Need More Information?
In Lesson One, you will examine the role of dreams in your leadership journey. To be a visionary leader, you must dream big. Steve Tappin, CEO and Coach, uses the Oxford Dictionary's definition of dream: "a cherished hope or ideal; a fantasy." He works with companies around the world to help their teams learn to dream together. His ideas are applicable to you as an individual as well. Take a look at two exercises he uses to help others visualize their leadership as well as their life dreams:
Exercise #1: So What is Your Dream?
Capture your dream in a few sentences. The more relaxed you are, the more your imagination will flow so turn on your favorite music or watch your favorite movie. Finish starter statements like "What I would love to happen..." and "My impact on the world could be..."
Exercise #2: Conviction and Belief
Think of your dream and then ask yourself "why is it important." Keep asking yourself why until you figure out what led you to dream this dream.
