What style is yours?

It’s funny. . I think about leadership a lot. It’s a topic and experience near and dear to my heart.

After reading this post, I notice that my heart is in the angel zone-always has been. Where as my thoughts of late are that of a shepherd. In fact I often describe what I do as being a sherpa, and yes, it is lonelier than I prefer.

Thanks for the opening! I’ll enjoy integrating and expanding my leading angel. :)

Now, where did I put those wings. .. lol

w/ much love,
Judy

Your post also got me to thinking about how I bring my own archetypes into my leadership…

I have been in class identifying my archetypes using Caroline Myss’s Sacred Contracts as Model. Two of my archetypes that I am working with this lifetime are networker/storyteller and seeker. I see my leadership as that of making connections for people to become their fullest expression and of supporting people in telling a new story about their life. For the seeker part, I bring a sense of curiosity and seeking to share truth, beauty and possibility with others. Thank you for helping to see my “wheel” in a light — both in how I am working with these archetypes and how I bring this archetypal energy to others.

Thanks for the inspiration!
Love and light,
Shannon

Yael, I love your story about your friend’s two boys, and the ways in which they grew into their names. Names are powerful–naming is, after all, one of the original acts of creation. Names for the angel-leader . . . Divine Architect?

Yay, Leonie, for claiming the Saint within you as well as the Angel! Someone else mentioned in the comments that nobody had owned up to being a saint-leader. I’m happy you have. :-)

Amy: Angel Amy has a nice alliteration to it.

Wendy, every mom is a shepherd as well as an angel. And, there’s the angel who carries the blueprint for shepherd-ness too!

Deb, Victoria, Stacy, Sarah Marie, you lead with your hearts and transform the world around you.

Love, Hiro

Hiro Boga´s last blog post..Shepherd, Steward, Saint or Angel: What Kind of Leader Are You?

I used to think of wanting to transmit ideas, but that seemed to require “knowing” in some kind of definitive sense which isn’t possible. Now I see the process as one of expressing, which stimulates others to respond, which leads to everyone learning more (including me!)

Thanks,

Lynne

Lynne Tolk´s last blog post..What if we ARE the fruit of the tree?

I had a dear friend years ago who married a Persian. They had two boys – Kahran (King in farsi) and Shabawn (shepherd). I watched the boys grow into men, and also witnessed how they “grew” into their names.

Kahran carried strength and royalty; Shabawn tenderness, wisdom, and strength.

Your article reminded me of the power of names, their inner essence, and I wonder what name would convey the essence of the angel-leader? Any ideas?

Thanks for sharing your inner beauty and wisdom.

I feel I’m somewhere between a saint and an angel-teacher.

Goddess Leonie´s last blog post..My mama is making me write this.

Shepard: I care a lot about people and went through a phase of getting all my caring tossed back at me in evil ways. Sort of like Havi’s shoe thing. I finally woke up and not caring just wasn’t an option for me. I noticed that those people just weren’t ready or able to accept the caring from me or who I am.

The most I can be is me.

I like to know people and them to know me. I enjoy the transparency and I believe it allows me to better help people. This is why I started my eWorkshop and have such a personal involvement with it by having one on one appts. with people.

Angel: I have a vision of how people can be a bit happier, know themselves more, and be more reliant on themselves physically and mentally than most are used to being.

If all of that makes sense. ;)

Amy Mommaerts´s last blog post..I don’t wanna be an adult no more!

As the mother of young children, I’d say I’m in Shepherd mode much of the time (with a good dose of stewardship thrown in there too), and can surely vouch for the loneliness.

As an entrepreneur working to create a transformational business, I strive to be an angel (I’ve been called that by a few clients) but have had trouble feeling comfortable in my wings. Perhaps it’s time to step (er, fly?) more fully into that role — or maybe come up with a different word as Hiro suggests. Heart-centered leadership, maybe? A fun one to think about.

Interesting to note that none of the commenters (me included!) thinks of themselves as a saint :) Do we really not think of ourselves this way or are we simply uncomfortable claiming the title? If we called it “visionary” or “big-picture” leadership would it resonate with anyone? Just wondering.
