A leader is either below the line, trapped in ego and the need to win, or above the line, centered and focused on what serves the team. Centering brings presence and genuine collaboration instead of stress and self-protection.
In any given moment, we're either above or below the line. If we're below the line, I'm in my stuff, in my head, in my agenda, trying to win the moment for me, to get one over you, to get my point across. It's very heady. It's very stressful. It's where most people live most of the time. The alternative is you shift above the line through the practice of centering. And from there, you naturally feel connected to the present moment, to the other person, to the team, the people in front of you, And from here, there's much more collaboration. I'm not trying to impress you. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. I'm just genuine here in the spirit of collaboration in service of the best possible outcome.
