Leadership by Design

This book is crafted as a self-development journey, providing the tools that one needs –no matter whether they’re a CEO, a community leader, a freelancer or something entirely different – to ﬁnd out what leadership means to them. Balancing cutting-edge theory with useful tips, data, and tasks, this self-guided course will help facilitate a transformation towards becoming the type of leader the reader has always believed they can be.

Every leader is different; there is no one-size-ﬁts-all solution that someone can copy. Leaders are human, with different personalities, personal preferences, and styles of communication, meaning that no two leaders can be the same. Instead of prescribing constrictive frameworks to force the reader into a cookie-cutter style of leadership, Leadership by Design acts as a mentor, guiding them towards ﬁnding their own unique style of leadership.

Although the language is deemed to not be complex nor does it follow any specific industry or domain related jargon, small glossary of terms has been prepared for your convenience. You must have bumped into it already. As for the main body of contents... OK, let’s admit it: given the way we’ve been introducing The Impact Plan and its spectacular qualities – which we’re convinced you will confirm at the end profile too. In fairness, we do also have bigger purpose, which The Impact Plan positively change the world. Grounded in the work of Joseph Campbel — who hammered out the metaphor for the journey of transformation that heroes in every time and place seem to share — Scott Allison, Professor of Psychology at the University of Richmond, US, says “hero stories illuminate your true purpose in four ways:

What you can be paid for use any of your talents or knowledge? Note that what you can be paid for may differ from what you’re good at. Your vocation

The Impact Plan is a detailed decision-making framework that guides students and creative professionals to quickly assess the future impact of their creative projects.

Maar ook als jij iemand bent die niet van natte troep houdt kun je je leven zintuigelijk rijker ma ken door de vorm of de geur van eten te bewonderen. Misschien voelt een rijpe perzik gewoon heel lekker in je hand en neemt de geur je mee naar zinnelijke zomeravonden. Luxe dineren komt misschien het dichtst bij volwassen gastronomisch genot maar voor onze zintuigen hoeven we geen reservering te maken. Die hebben we altijd bij ons. Foodporn is niet voor niets zo populair. We eten zoals we porno beleven. We kiezen dat wat er lekker uit ziet en eten snel en efficient totdat we weer gevuld zijn zodat we weer verder kunnen met de dag. Het is heus lekker en we genieten er zeker van maar het stompt ook af. Wat als ik een lekker geil broodje voor je maak met een gepocheerd eitje met peper en zout en een klontje smeltende boter er bovenop? Kom jij het dan opeten alsof je voor het eerst eeroodje eet? Alsof je nog nooit boter van je lippen hebt gelikt? Alsof de zilte nasmaak met een spoortje azijn voor het eerst van je leven in je mond ligt uit te rusten. Alsof je voor het eerst van je leven wordt aangeraakt. Voor het eerst wordt gekust. Vol overgave. Ik sprak met Kaye Winwood Food artist, gespecialiseerd in sensuele eetervaringen, Birmingham UK: ‘Wat me vooral opvalt, dat mensen zeggen dat het eigenlijk zo lekker is om hun hand af te likken, om hun zintuigen te gebruiken en echt, diep en sensueel van eten te genieten. Het gekke is dat ze iedere dag eten maar dat expliciet van hun eten genieten, met al hun zinnelijke zintuigen, iets is waar ze toestemming voor nodig lijken te hebben. We hebben iedere dag de kans om een zinnelijke ervaring te hebben en we kunnen dit ook allemaal voelen maar weinig mensen omarmen genot werkelijk als ze eten. Als ik eten en sex aan elkaar verbind kom je op een terrein van schaamte terecht. We hebben allemaal zintuigen, een heel lijf vol, maar als we eten staan we bijna niet toe om ons echt over te geven aan het plezier en genot van eten. Het wordt zo vaak in het leven afge daan als iets onbelangrijks. Mensen eten om zich te voeden, soms is wat ze eten en politieke keuze, maar weinig mensen eten echt puur en alleen voor genot. Mensen houden zich in als ze Niet dat ze niet genieten maar van werkelijke overgave is eigenlijk geen sprake. Ik wil met mijn werk mensen uitnodigen om dat lijf, wat ze toch al hebben, echt te voelen op een sensuele manier en dan met eten. Het eigenlijk een soort mindfulness omdat als je echt even stil staat en in het nu met al je aandacht eet dan krijg je toegang tot genot. Er zijn genoeg initiatieven die eten met sex verbinden maar vaak zijn die heel platvloers. Ik ben niet geïnteresseerd in sushi van elkaars lijf af eten. Mijn werk gaat over zinnelijkheid, ver beeldingskracht en simpelweg plezier. Over het werkelijk omarmen van diepgeworteld geil ge not maar ook over emancipatie en zelfbeschikkingsrecht van vrouwen. Het gaat namelijk meer om het toestaan van genot dan het genieten zelf. Sex en orgasmes zijn nog steeds onderdeel Ik gebruik eten om een andere sensuele taal aan te bieden om ruimte te maken voor een ruimere interpretatie van genot. Misschien is het een cultureel fenomeen wat vooral voor vrouwen van een bepaalde leeftijd geldt maar ik merk dat het voor veel vrouwen heel fijn is om stap voor stap het taboe los te laten en zich te kunnen overgeven aan een fysieke ervaring waarin ze werkelijk intiem kunnen worden door middel van eten. Ik zie mijn werk als een culturele uitnodiging tot jezelf want ik schep een situatie waar de ander zelf iets mee kan doen. Ik zie kunst als iets wat van het publiek een deelnemer maakt in plaats van eenKinderentoeschouwer.kunnen eten soms echt fysiek ervaren door te ruiken, te likken of met aan dacht te luisteren naar het geluid van hun eten. Misschien klinkt dit vreemd als je het hebt over sensualiteit maar dit is wel de sensualiteit die ik wil opzoeken. Door de kinderlijke verwondering en speelse ontdekkingen die je als kind deed te omarmen als volwassene. Ik maak soms eetbare parfum die je van je huid af likt. De warmte van je huid vermengt zich met de geur van het parfum en de zachte, natte streling van je tong op je huid. Alleen dit is al een heel opwindende sensatie. De brug tussen dat wat we dagelijks eten en mijn sensuele eetervaringen vind ik het meest interessant. Want waarom zouden we niet expliciet sensueel genieten van wat we dagelijks eten? Mindful eten mag ook opwindend zijn. Zouden we dan niet veel meer plezier hebben? Veel meer respect hebben voor ons eten en ook voor ons lichaam. Ik denk dat we een enorme kans laten liggen. Eigenlijk is het respectloos als we eten en niet echt genieten. Ik denk dat een hernieuwde zintuigelijke relatie met eten een weg kan vrijmaken naar een gezonder dieet. Eten kan je helpen om meer bewust te worden van je lijf. Niet alleen door te merken wat het met je doet als je het opeet maar vooral ook door te merken wat het met je doet voor je het opeet. staan.’ challenge Ik weet niet of het nodig is om uit te leggen waarom het volgens mij waardevol om met meer overgave en genot je eten te eten. Ik kom uit een calvinistisch land waar eten van oudsher word gezien als een noodzakelijk kwaad en sex als verplichting om de soort in stand te houden. Nu ik dat zo schrijf voel ik een lichte depressie opkomen en denk ik dat het wel goed is om uit te Natuurlijkleggen. wordt door veel mensen eten en sex niet meer gezien als nood-zakelijk kwaad maar toch bespeur ik deze houding nog wel in veel mensen. Mensen eten snel, achter de computer, iets uit een knijptube, in de auto. Volgens onderzoekers hebben we tegenwoordig ook minder sex. Of de kwaliteit ook minder is dat weet ik niet, maar op het moment dat je het niet hebt, kun je er ook niet fysiek van genieten denk ik. Genieten wordt met deze levenshouding iets voor speciale gelegenheden. Zinnelijk genot iets wat een geheime aangelegenheid is waar je je voor moet afzonderen. Een taboe. Lekker geilen op een sappige perzik die je langzaam en wellustig naar binnen werkt terwijl het sap langs je kin loopt roept gene op bij anderen die ook koffie willen halen bij de koffie automaat. Stel je voor dat je met iedere appel of boterham met pindakaas de liefde bedrijft. Waarachtig, bewust en liefdevol. Met rode blosjes, een diepere ademhaling en fantasievolle gedachten. Alsof je honderdduizend kleine octopusnapjes hebt die je oren, je neus, je vingers, je tong, álles met elkaar verbindt en dat je die sensatie tot in het diepste van je lijf toestaat om er van te genieten. Want je hébt al die zintuigen. Je hoeft het alleen maar toe te staan. Te vaak zijn we bang voor de afkeuring van anderen dat we vergeten dat het gewoon mag, je over geven aan het sensuele genot van eten. Het volgende recept, wat Kaye vaak gebruikt bij haar diners, nodigt je uit om je natuurlijke gereedschappen (Je handen, je lippen, je huid) hiervoor te gebruiken.

We know we must go through the Energy Transition to reach the next energy system. It’s a lengthy trip – it will take us 30 40 years and it will lead us from burning predominantly fossil fuels to carbon neutrality, or net-zero carbon emissions. Net-zero carbon means that there is a balance between emissions of carbon dioxide and its removal from the air. This can, for instance, be achieved by removing carbon dioxide through vegetation (planting trees) to make up for emissions elsewhere: offsetting. Doctors would say: we’re just fighting the Thesymptoms.betteroption is to use renewable energy and decrease our energy use. Focus on the transition. Let’s make silent electric cars that replace noisy petrol-driven ones. Smell it. Wind farms and solar power replace the power plants that now exploit the heat of burning coal and waste. Experience the transition. It includes the production, transportation, maintenance, and lifespan extension of batteries, infrastructure, solar panels, and wind turbines. Currently all this is done with the help of fossil-sourced energy. New energy must overtake the old, to be able to hatch its own life support hardware. The effort is mind boggling. It would help if we stopped using so much energy. We could start by reminding ourselves what it’s all for.

Earth’s atmosphere, oceans and land masses is approximately 3,850,000 exajoules (EJ) per year.

We’re not asking you to be hugely ambitious and save the world. On your own you can’t remove all the garbage from every beach. It’s all about proportion. You certainly should be eager to improve things, but you’d better limit your efforts to your own circle of influence. Ambition is personal. When taking up a challenge, there’s always that inner voice whispering ‘as best you can’. And you’re not alone. Commitment gets things done. Always involve others. You may not have as much power as you’d wish, but the effect of influence can be just as strong. Change takes time. The more urgent the crisis, the quicker the Preventchanges.urgency from getting out of hand. By the way, the word ‘ambition’ isn’t worth googling; brainy quotes about ambition are boring.
