Immerse yourself on a journey of discovery in this conversation about Paradoxical Thinking and Leadership with author and philosopher, Ivo Brughmans.
Get ready to challenge your own assumptions and self-perception.
Ivo delivers an insightful message about embracing the ‘power of both sides’ of our personalities. Reaching out for the side of our personality that we don’t see or use, or even like that much is truly challenging.
As a ‘very serious person at work’, Ivo describes how he managed to combine both professional and playful, in order to reach more people and be more effective.
He also focuses on the paradoxical challenge for organisations who struggle to live up to their values and how to be more authentic and effective in that regard. For example, how can a company ‘double the profit and halve the footprint’ at the same time?
Ivo introduces his 8 step approach to understanding our paradoxes more deeply and offers personal examples from his own life and career, including;
🎙️The Courage to trust our intuition in difficult times.
Using our fundamental beliefs and our mission as a ‘compass’.
🎙️The Paradoxical Challenge.
Using the power of both sides to reach more people with our message and our work.
🎙️Accepting our shadow sides.
For every characteristic, we also have the opposite in us. Despite their negative appearance, what is their positive intention?
🎙️Reshaping corporate values in terms of polarities
How to innovate and create stability? Double the profit, halve the footprint? Ivo identifies how companies can do both at the same time.
