Live Your Impressivity Show

In this enlightening episode, we delve into the profound relationship between leadership, books, deep reading, and the art of human connection.

Join me and my guest, Theresa Destrebecq, as we explore how great leaders can create the habit of reading to shape their thinking, expand their perspectives, and inspire others.

Discover the remarkable ways in which deeper reading fuels leadership success, helping leaders cultivate empathy, creativity, and critical thinking skills.

We also uncover the hidden gems of building authentic connections through shared reading experiences. Tune in for an episode that will illuminate the path to leadership greatness!

After spending over a decade in traditional education and education leadership, and another decade coaching individuals, Theresa Destrebecq now combines the two to create, lead, and facilitate book-centered learning communities.

Her company, Emerge Book Circles, focuses on supporting organizations and individual leaders to move beyond consuming ideas. Instead, she supports them to read deeper, build stronger connections with themselves and others, and then to create new ways of living, working, and leading from the ideas they first read. She believes we can all be theorists, but not all of us will be practitioners.

Live Your Impressivity Podcast Show is back! Season 2 is here and it's all about Business and Leadership Journaling!

According to Harvard Business Review, “outstanding leaders take time to reflect”, in order to develop their extraordinary secret skills: “seeing before others see, understanding before others understand, and acting before others act”.

Research shows that leaders need to master 5 soft skills:

• active listening
• self compassion
• empathy
• vulnerability
• honesty

“Journaling in schools” is an ambitious project initiated by Alex Badita and Florina Russu and looking to be developed in schools across Romania and internationally.

Nature journaling involves awareness, mindfulness and grounding. Writing in a journal about the nature around us requires us to take a break and observe, pay attention, even in the middle of the city. Find the wilnderness in your own city and find your resilience in times of stress with nature journaling.

Creativity is one of the most desired skills to have in the workplace, in business or in life. Being able to "connect the dots" and bring new fresh ideas to the table is unique and should be encouraged.
