What a crackin’ Sydney day. • Not a bad day for my first day back at work for 2019. • #curios about what the day will bring. • #leadership #executivecoaching #mentoring #helpinghumansbehuman #curiousity #growth #change #australianexecutive #sydneyceo #sydneyexecutive #systemsthinking #sydneycbd #sydneylife #campbellleadershipsolutions #australianceo #chiefexecutiveofficer (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtMSjVvh0N1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=e0h5afwpe2ht

Last week, a very special person in my life shared these words with me. • To me, they capture the ideal of how I wish to be in conversations. Whether it is as a coach, mentor, father, partner or friend, if I can move away from controlling the conversation and learn to pay attention and be curious, I know I will learn much more. • And so will the person I am talking to. • What do these words mean to you? • #leadership #humanity #helpinghumansbehuman #curiosity #conversations #deeplistening #growth #change #navigatingcomplexity #systemsthinking #executivecoaching #mentoring #australianexecutive #campbellleadershipsolutions https://www.instagram.com/p/BsrSk0lhAlI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6zhjnegualc3

In his book, “Give and Take”, @adamgrant discusses research around the thinking and behaviour of giving. It would appear that if we get people to identify as givers they tend to exhibit less giving behaviour. “I know I am a giver, therefore I don’t have to prove it” perhaps. If, however, we involve people in giving behaviours, over time they come to see themselves as givers. In this situation it would seem that a change in behaviour leads to a change in thinking, and not the other way around. #leadership #giveandtakethebook #behaviouralchange #helpinghumansbehuman #growthmindset #changeyourthinking #executivecoaching #mentoringworks #curiosity #complexity #australianleaders #australianceo #australiandirectors #sydneyleaders #australianexecutive #sydneyexecutive #sydneyceo #campbellleadershipsolutions https://www.instagram.com/p/BpSZXaShZT5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nv3zzh6tn1su

I realise it’s been a while since I have posted on social media, but there has been a lot going on that I am looking forward to talking about. As for today, however, it’s off to #Brisbane for the day to see clients who are engaged and looking to expand their awareness of themselves, those around them and their environment. #leadership #executivecoaching #selfawareness #helpinghumansbehuman #complexity #curiosity #mentoring #brisbaneexecutive #brisbaneceo #corporatebrisbane #australianlife #australianceo #personaldevelopment #professionaldevelopment #qantas #sydneytobrisbane #campbellleadershipsolutions (at Sydney Domestic Airport Terminal 3)

Those of you who know me know that I hold curiosity as one of my values. Having done the VIA Character Survey, ‘curiosity’ comes up as one of my top five strengths. I believe that curiosity is an antidote to the negative way we judge people. Curiosity allows us to learn new things. Curiosity helps us see the world in different ways. That doesn’t mean I always get it right. Recently, however, I’ve taken a leaf out of Brendon Burchard’s book and started to ask myself daily, “Was I curious today?” (Along with, “Was I energetic?” and “Was I available?”) What do you value? What do you see as strengths? What would other people say about you in that regard and what do you want them to say? If the answers to these questions seem elusive to you, then I’d encourage you to get curious about yourself. If you do, and are patient, the answers will come. #curiosity #leadership #selfawareness #attention #resilience #questions #answers #helpinghumansbehuman #helpingleadersleadbetter #executivecoaching #executive #executivesuite #executiveofficer #australianexecutive #australianceo #ceo #ceolife #sydney #sydneylife #sydneycorporate #sydneyexecutive #sydneyceo #campbellleadershipsolutions
