Launched in 2020, Agilis Executive Consulting collaborated with 20 Extraordinary Executives across the globe to journal their paths. Their leadership inspired people around the world, simply by sharing their journeys and offering authentic perspectives on the power of mindset, and the role of a personal brand when measuring success.
The idea of storytelling for Executives complimented my Canadian start-up consulting business. What I was unprepared for was the profound impact these articles had on people across the globe, who were inspired and moved by the authenticity of the stories that were being captured, and how closely connected our personal lives are to our professional ones.
How it started:
- A Pen.
- A Notebook.
- A Seatbelt.
- And a Pandemic.
How we measured success:
- 20 Journeys +
- 10 Countries +
- 6 Continents +
- 1 Commonality =
- Infinite Inspiration!
This project highlights how virtually meeting with individuals across the world can be equally as impactful in learning about one another as it would be if we were to meet in person. Connections become stronger once we share our journeys to success together, while honoring the hardships and obstacles that are also a struggle to overcome along the way. When you meet people from different cultures in different countries who value the differences in how success is measured, you gain immense insight and growth to learn and celebrate success in many different ways as well.
These stories are legacy, and the celebratory next step to reward these leaders’ courage in sharing their stories with the world is to honor their legacies through the publication of this book, while making an indefinite impact for children through Make-A-Wish® Canada. As the world's leading children's wish-granting organization, operating in over 50 countries, the Make-A-Wish® Foundation creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. A wish is an integral part of a child's treatment journey, and we are on a quest to support bringing every eligible child's wish to life. Purchasing this book supports the donations necessary to drive Make-A-Wish® Canada's initiative toward making a life-changing impact for so many children in need.
The world isn’t as large as we once thought it was. We are all everyday, ordinary people who should be offering curiosity and interest to one another as our paths cross, so that we can find our journeys and ourselves in others’ too.
This book is a beautiful, organic journey of its own that was meant to be created. I’m honored to fulfill this purpose alongside my client team of Extra(ordinary) Executives. We captured 20 Journeys. We virtually travelled to 10 Countries, across 6 Continents. We determined we all share 1 Commonality. And we leave you with Infinite Inspiration.
This is Storytelling.
How do you measure success?
