What does Being a Transformed coach and a Transformed Business Leader mean?

Being a leader, one must possess the critical skill of coaching or mentoring to ensure they guide and nurture talent within the organization, create future leaders and successors who are truly capable of contributing towards organizational growth.  To be a coach or mentor, first you should have walked the path and be capable of resolving your own challenges. For me it was very important to be capable of resolving my challenges before I start coaching others, I should have walked the path first :) and this was only possible by undergoing a transformational journey within me.  

So, let's try to understand what transformation is? Why is it so important to be transformed? and how is it helping me in coaching others? What does being transformed mean?  Too many questions :).

We all are a very unique combination of thoughts, emotions, beliefs, notions, desires, strengths, behaviours. All these factors have an enormous influence   in our decision-making process.  As leaders it's very important that we take decisions based on our self-awareness only then leaders can make the necessary impact on the organizations, business and people that they lead.

Transformation, it's a journey within oneself to discover yourself, to connect with yourself, dive deeper inside yourself, to understand what really you are and what you need.

This is not a change in yourself or this is not a change in mindset, rather it is a series of self-realizations that you make by diving deep into yourself.

Transformation happens much deeper within oneself, compared to a change in thinking or change in mindset which happens on the surface and is permanent in nature.

You slowly start discovering yourself and start understanding yourself deeper as how you operate, what are the factors that influence you within yourself. Often these factors may be triggered by outside circumstances but these are factors that operate within you. You will realize that you are responsible for most of the issues in your life and you will realize that the solution lies well within you. It is extremely important to realize (not just understand) that "I am the solution ".

The point is transformation is not a onetime event rather it is a series of realizations that happen over a period of time and these are life changing events. Once you start the journey of transformation slowly but steadily your problems such as being introverted, shyness, not speaking up for yourself, low self-esteem, fear, anxiety, worry and many more will just start disappearing.

Transformation is not a change but it is operating from your true nature after you rediscover yourself, crafting a niche person who is genuinely yourself, there is no one like you.  It is getting as closer to reality as possible. It is decluttering your beliefs, assumptions, perception, both good and bad. It is realizing that there is a fine line that we must recognize and that we should not cross over.

I would like to draw your attention on two important factors that shape your life, Choices and Decisions.

Have you ever wondered why you face some issues over and over again in life, what are the factors that impact us and especially our future. This is where the "power of choices" comes into picture. We unconsciously make many decisions that impact our life and we are totally unaware of this. Once I realized this, I started seeing things changing in my life and this was not possible without my transformation.

Have you evaluated your decision-making process and factors that impact that process within you?

It's estimated that the average adult makes more than 35,000 decisions per day, but the question is how many of these are taken consciously. Any decision we make, every choice we make has an impact on us, on our life and interestingly it's both favourable and unfavourable, and the most important part is every decision we make, every choice we make shapes our future. Unfortunately, we don’t realize the power of conscious decision making, based on our awareness.

As leaders we are expected to make business decisions day in and day out that have a very deep and far-reaching impact on both people and businesses.   We also make a lot of decisions in our life that not only impact us but also our near and dear ones.

Being transformed helps us make the appropriate decisions, once you have discovered yourself and are connected with your oneself this becomes very easy rather you will take well thought and appropriate decisions. This directly impacts your life and the life of people around you. You do not regret those decisions as they are coming from your deep understanding of yourself.

As a transformed person you are able to handle your relationships, your business, your career, your life efficiently. Additionally, you have the power to empower others and influence them.

Transformation is an endless journey within yourself, this is something that everyone must experience in their life. Only a transformed leader by transformational leadership can bring a balanced and sustainable growth in business and life, of his own and others. Likewise, a transformed coach has the capability to empower and influence people to discover their true nature, establish a deeper connection with themselves and transform their life.
