Thinking Aloud: Thoughts On Leadership And Human Development

This book is a collection of introspective thoughts of Theodore U. Ferguson, the author and developer of the leadership development programme, Leading From Above The Line. The philosophy underpinning this programme is anchored in a belief in the fundamental goodness of the human being. Human beings are seen as fundamentally moral and with a deep desire to live moral lives-to be above the moral line. In this book the author shares his insights into and understanding of various aspects of human development and of leadership in the context of our varied social and working environments. It is hoped that the thoughts presented in this book will help readers to get a deeper understanding of their own humanity and of the humanity of others. The author believes that when we discover our humanity, we open doors for the expression of our full human potential and for the release of our ability to extend love and compassion to others. Leadership development is about self-development, which comes from enhanced moral consciousness and the strengthening of our inner power. The Leading From Above The Line programme seeks to build the inner self through the cultivation of the Five Sources of Our Inner Power-Principle Consciousness, Purpose, Emotional Mastery, Understanding Change and Knowledge Empowerment. The thoughts are structured around the Five Sources of Our Inner Power and are intended to work as points or triggers for private reflection, introspection and self-development.
