Introducing the three modles of MasterMe Strategy

 

"When is it my turn?" The mumbling tumbles inside our head, as we do our best to validate the success of others, putting on our best smile and applauding loudly. Although jealousy doesn't enter our heart, there is that gnawing sense of frustration as we wait in the wings for our chance.

"KAIROS" is the Greek word for making the right decision at the right time. Timing is a critical factor in our personal success, earmarked by the ability to make good decisions, which is incredibly difficult to teach budding leaders. 

The skills and philosophy of kairos defies mere knowledge, requiring a heart that chooses to understand. Kairos is preceded by and stands on the shoulders of "AXIOS," the intrinsic sense of being worthy, capable and able. A strong relationship with the "I am" straightens the learning leader's spine, lifts his or her chin, and brightens their eye. 

In axios, they know who they are, where they have come from, and where they are headed. The spirit of axios lays the correct foundation for kairos to flourish in the leader, but it too takes time and a heart to understand. The axios heart is forged in the fires of experience. 

 It is at the edge of the fire, deciding whether or not they should stride forward, that leaders are seperated from the followers that opt to turn away. "THARROS" is courage, required to pursue the leadership calling. The potential leader must face the fact that walking into the fire of experience means the attacks come from all sides, in many forms, without rest. 

Tharros, courage, beckons through the flames to all of those paused at the edge, pondering, doubting, questioning. It takes courage to step into the role of leadership, and it is that very courage that shapes the leaders sense of worth and ability, without which kairos is impossible. 

The call of leadership is masked as the call to face our fears, to push through our challenges. It is a call to overcome and learn through experience. It's with cinder still crackling, sodden with the stench of smoke that the leader rises out of the fire, to glory.

Stepping forward, you must embrace tharros (courage) to face your challenges, and gain experience. That experience forges a healthy leader identity, axios, which calmly and confidently makes the right decision at the right time, kairos. It is your time. 

It is your time to face your challenges, and to overcome them. It is your time to realise your worth. It is your time to make the right decision, and win!
