Let's discuss... The Four Energies of Leadership
At the WLA our leadership development programmes are built on the four energies of leadership [1]
The concept is simple. Every thought, every emotion, and every feeling we have provides energy; energy that boosts or drains us. Whilst we all have the same number of hours in any one day, we have infinite access to both the quality and quantity of our energy. And we draw that energy from four sources:
[1] Developed by the McCain Group and further developed by Steve Radcliff in ‘Future, Engage, Deliver’
Intellectual Energy
Our intellectual energy is that which focuses on data, on ideas, on logic, on the rational, our ability to debate, articulate and conceptualise. This energy enables us to innovate, organise and move forwards. This is a strong organisational energy that helps us to make sense of the world around us, to structure thinking, to create ‘SMART’ goals, to implement and to review.
Physical Energy
Our physical energy refers to a broad range of aspects: our sleep, our fuel, our recovery, our resilience. This energy drives our every day performance levels. It’s how we show up in the world, when we are interacting with others, our physical ‘presence’ that enables us to keep active, moving and replenished.
Emotional Energy
Our emotional energy is our ability to relate to others, to build rapport, to engage, our empathy, our desire to understand, to listen, to explore our feelings and our enjoyment of life. This energy is essential in creating engagement, followership, partnership and establishing collaborative ways of working.
Spiritual Energy
Our spiritual energy is our focus on our purpose, our reason for being, our vision for ourselves and the organisation, the values that we bring, our integrity, our conviction and our inspiration. Our spirit energy enables us to focus on our future and possibilities. It’s the legacy stuff of leadership, the difference we most want to make in the world.
