Spiritual Leadership – The Finest Skill There Is?
Spiritual leadership is a skill. You can think of it as the ability to create conditions that are conducive to the development of consciousness in others, using our intentions, speech and actions. No other skill is so important, yet we scarcely recognise it as a skill unto itself.
The skill of spiritual leadership is not just for those in designated roles – it will make you a better parent, partner, friend, neighbour, manager, colleague, and overall contributor to society. It is an arcane skill that has historically been the remit of religious leaders. Of course that can’t work anymore for all people and the needs of today, so it is helpful to consider spiritual leadership as a standalone skill, open to all people, that involves investigating, guiding and leading by example.
I believe that individuals, organisations and society at large must continually expand in awareness, empathy and responsibility in order for civilisation to be preserved. And recognising spiritual leadership as a standalone skill is a key part of that.
