💡 I had an eye-opening conversation with Pekka Pohjakallio, former Managing Director at Hintsa Performance (the company that trains Formula 1 drivers), about authentic leadership in today’s hyperconnected world.⚠️ The problem: Only 15% of employees worldwide feel genuinely engaged at work (Gallup). Our constant connectivity fosters reactive leadership instead of intentional leadership.🔑 Pekka’s Key Insights:🔋 **Strategic Rest Matters**: Just as Formula 1 drivers need recovery between races, business leaders must prioritize holistic well-being over quick performance hacks. Sustainable leadership stems from healthy habits tailored to individual needs.🎯 **Know Your Core Identity**: Many executives struggle to define themselves and what is their life vision beyond their present job titles. At age 44, Pekka realized he had to align his career with his true self rather than external expectations. Authentic performance begins with self-awareness.🌟 **Create Meaning, Not Just Metrics**: Effective leaders clarify organizational purpose while helping team members connect their personal values to their daily work.🏆 **Model Well-Being Transformation**: Leaders must embody sustainable practices for their teams to emulate and foster psychological safety. This isn’t about implementing wellbeing programs—it’s about leaders living and communicating a clear wellbeing narrative.✨ **The Bottom Line**: In today’s hyperconnected world, the most successful leaders manage their time, align with their core identity, and cultivate cultures where wellbeing and performance complement each other.What’s your experience with authentic leadership? How do you balance wellbeing with performance?
