Leadership the calm, peaceful and untroubled way creating time to absorb a situation and think.

Thom Dennis is a former Royal Marines officer who became a cultural change consultant and executive coach.

Thom developed Serenity in Leadership, an approach to leadership that aims to provide leaders with a greater understanding of themselves and free them from the constraints of conventional approaches so they can lead in a more authentic and engaging way.

In an episode of The Independent Minds recorded during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Thom and host Michael Millward explore Serenity in Leadership. Their conversation covers

• The feminine and masculine aspects of leadership
• Conventional expectations of leaders
• The importance of self-awareness for leaders
• How, regardless of our gender, we all have feminine and masculine aspects to our personalities
• How attempts to achieve serenity are impacted by these two sides of our personality
• How these different aspects of our personality impact the way women are treated by men.
• The challenges woman face when leading at work.
• Challenges of leading home workers
