The core demand among corporate employees has become the pursuit of a work-life balance. Many companies have incorporated this into their employee surveys, aiming to build a corporate organization where employees feel happy.

From this perspective, have we considered how to recognize our different facets and discover our holistic leadership potential?

This report divides life into four aspects: solitude, work, family interactions, and friendships. We often find that we may present vastly different personas in various situations. However, when we can integrate our inner perspectives, we have the ability to develop our unique leadership talents. Here are three key points about holistic leadership:

Holistic Leadership is Authentic Leadership

For effective communication, leaders need to understand the traits of others. Yet, in practice, sometimes to make others feel comfortable, one might change their style, even resorting to tailoring their messages to fit the audience. The essence of holistic leadership is about making adjustments from the inside out, not just changing how we express ourselves. Through discussions and reflections, we find that even those who speak bluntly can show a warm and helpful side in family interactions. By sincerely evaluating our values and beliefs, we can find appropriate ways to respond in life.

Achieving Diversity and Inclusion Naturally

In this diverse era, embracing multiculturalism and respecting different backgrounds, beliefs, and values is essential, especially for leaders.

In corporate training, we often invest heavily in establishing a diverse and inclusive environment. However, beyond external regulations, we also need to focus on integrating our internal beliefs. In Asian cultures, the key to inclusion is often not just accommodating others but respecting and appreciating oneself and actively expressing personal opinions. Developing holistic leadership is about finding the key to integration, helping organizations achieve open communication and feedback.

Enhancing Self-Awareness is Key

Self-awareness is not a static observation but a dynamic process of discovery and action. In a rapidly changing environment, leaders need to remain aware to effectively self-adjust. Through discussions and reflections, leaders can understand the interactions and synergies between different aspects of life, making flexible adjustments and giving appropriate attention where needed.

The core value of holistic leadership lies in recognizing one's different aspects of life and extracting unique leadership qualities. "Authentic Leadership," "Diversity and Inclusion," and "Self-Awareness" are the three pillars of holistic leadership. We believe that by taking good care of ourselves in all aspects, we can exhibit healthy holistic leadership.
