The MBODY Method & The Art of Leadership

We've created a unique leadership program combining neuroscience and 30 years of elite arts training. Through embodied knowledge, this approach empowers leaders to know who they are, what they want, why they want it, and how to achieve it. Graduates will cultivate effective relationships, resolve conflicts, and profoundly impact others.

We believe that the Art of Leadership is the Art of Relationship

“…gave me the opportunity to delve deeper into myself and reminded me that leadership is an art form; and I now feel that I am technically aware of the art and practice of persuasion and the need to communicate effectively. I feel I have a solid underpinning for all my future work.”

- Lisa, student, National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA).

According to Forbes Magazine, empathy and nurturing relationships are the two most important leadership skills. While 90% of executives believe they positively impact workers' wellbeing, skills development, inclusion and sense of purpose, only 40% of workers agree.

The Embodied Executive Program is the premier offering from The MBODY INSTITUTE. Tailored for high-level management and C-Suite executives, the program encourages the cultivation of embodied knowledge to develop acute self-awareness,  empathy and nurture effective human relationships to influence and impact others.

The Embodied Executive program develops FOUR KEYS AREAS in the Art of Leadership:

  2. The Art of Persuasion (Pathos)

  3.  The Art of Empowerment (Logos)

  4.  The Art of Embodying Leadership  (Praxis)

TRANSFORM YOUR LEADERSHIP PRACTICE WITH THE TOOLS TO EMBODY THE ART OF LEADERSHIP

The Art of Leadership

Leadership comes down to our relationship skills, establishing boundaries and trust with the people who will follow us. Leaders only become real leaders when people follow them. 

As Simon SInek has stated in Leaders Eat Last, ‘Leaders are not responsible for the results. Leaders are responsible for the people who are responsible for the results.’ (emphasis added).

LEADERSHIP IS NOT ABOUT ORGANISING PEOPLE, IT’S ABOUT RELATING TO PEOPLE

The Art of Relationship

The art of relationship building is found in the four fundamental and essential elements of effective leadership that are all related to interpersonal and communication skills. These four essential elements encompass the skills of:

  • The Art of Presence: Who You Are? (Ethos), 

  • The Art of Persuasion: What You Want & Why You Want It? (Pathos),

  •  The Art of Empowerment: How You Get It? (Logos),

  •  The Art of Embodying Leadership  (Praxis)

The Mbody Method, through the Embodied Executive Program, is designed to answer these questions and guide you through a transformation in your approach to understanding yourself and how you lead others.

The Embodied Executive Program is the first step toward transforming your leadership to the next level.

THE EMBODIED EXECUTIVE PROGRAM: The Art of Leadership

Forbes Magazine states that empathy and nurturing relationships are the two most important leadership skills. While 90% of executives believe they positively impact workers' wellbeing, skills development, inclusion and sense of purpose, only 40% of workers agree.” This represents a significant credibility-gap between what executives believe about their impact (90%) and how their staff are actually affected (40%).

Our Embodied Executive Program is designed to reduce this gap so that the executive positive impact on staff is maximised.

The Embodied Executive Program is the premier offering from The MBODY Method. Tailored for high-level management and C-Suite executives, the program encourages the cultivation of embodied knowledge to develop acute self-awareness, empathy and nurture effective human relationships to influence and impact others.

Paul Silverglate, a partner with Deloitte & Touche LLP and leads Deloitte’s US Executive Accelerators (XA) in Client & Market Growth (CMG), and also serves as Vice Chair and Deloitte US Technology Sector Leader, says: 

“Embracing human relationships can have benefits for both business and people. Today’s C-suite has the opportunity to help ensure it is prioritised at the highest levels of their organisations, helping them become more rewarding and productive places to work.”

The MBODY Method:   Building Better Relationships with self and others

We guarantee to take your leadership to the next level.

The Embodied Executive Program

  • Authentic Presence

    Leadership and presence start with awareness and focus. A truly authentic ‘executive’ presence begins with realising that leadership is about being self-aware without being self-centred.

  • Persuasive Leadership

    Leadership that persuades starts with composure; the art of being calm and emotionally responsible. A persuasive leader realises that effective leadership is about taking responsibility for themselves by recognising and releasing emotional and physical energy.

  • Executive Empowerment

    Leadership that empowers starts with relationships: setting and maintaining well-defined boundaries. True ‘executive’ leadership recognises that empowerment is about being in healthy relationships to others without sacrificing our relationship with self. It is about creating a safe, clear line where ‘I’ starts and ‘you’ begins.

  • Embodying Leadership

    Embodying leadership starts with cultivating and nurturing a secure leadership style. True ‘executive’ leadership recognises that people with secure attachment develop appropriate independent and dependent behaviours, they are flexible and adaptable to change and openly seek support when necessary.
