Questiam Leadership Development offers services to clients globally to increase leadership effectiveness.

We all recognize the need for effective leadership today and at Questiam we envision a world where strong, creative leadership is available much more readily. We are stepping up to fulfil that vision.

Our mission though is somewhat deeper. Our mission is reflected in our name. Quest implies a tireless search. Quest I Am implies a self directed though no less tireless search for who we really are. Our mission is to stand strongly beside and in support of leaders as they heed a call from within to search for and find their best. In the process leaders routinely find that their best calls them to be and to create what once may have seemed impossible even though the need existed and the urge to fulfill it was within them. In a sentence, as developers of leaders, we stand strongly in support of the conscience of leadership world wide.

Although this may sound awfully moralistic at first, we don't see it as such. Conscience, we believe is the still, small whisper of an individual to him or herself. Conscience is the voice inside that does its best to keep us on a path of fulfilment, of service and of creativity. Conscience is who we really are calling us to lead when we see a need in the world. Conscience then is essential to leadership.

And the word conscience also has a delightfully paradoxical flavour to it. Although its meaning is most deeply understood as an individual experience its roots are collective in a powerfully mystical way. Derived from the latin roots 'con' meaning 'with' and 'scire' meaning 'to know', conscience in its root, means to know together. When we consider that our conscience may be heard, and felt internally and individually but may reflect an intuitive connection and understanding of the the collective we are immediately and deeply in the territory of Leadership.

Compare also the connection between conscience and conscious. Both are from the same root words. Being conscious has deep spiritual connotations of presence, of being awake to our surroundings in a way that reminds us of our inter-connectedness. Again, being fully conscious, means we are open to knowing together.

Although we may not have the legal structures in place to best support busineses and corporations acting with the responsibility and ethics that reflect the power they wield today, we, as a global culture, do recognize the need for strong leadership within those organizations; leadership that has the conscience that abstract and impersonal legal structures lack. Effectiveness yes, that is an important part of developing leaders, but Questiam's calling is also to stand for the human, the deeply personal in the abstraction that is business.

Learn with us. Lead to grow and serve. Lead through knowing yourself. And, lead by knowing together.
