Who Looks Outside, Dreams. Who looks Inside, Awakes.
~ Carl Jung
We are dedicated to empowering businesses to achieve their full potential.
With a team of seasoned professionals and wealth of industry experience,
we offer tailored consulting services to help organizations
overcome challenges and seize new opportunities.
Some of the challenges organizations face include:
Loss of key people in your organization
Lack of engagement in your organization
Teams failing to reach their goals
Poor communication skills
Silos (Engineering, HR, Operations) in the organization
Lack of reliable Accountability System in the organization
And how can these problems be solved?
Awakening Minds, LLC was started by our founder and CEO, José A. Oliver, as under his 25+ years of exposure
in the manufacturing industry, he noticed that there is untapped potential in organizations
mainly driven by the untapped potential of their people.
The systems and processes these organizations follow have limited their growth,
and their people go to work with the only expectation of getting paid.
And the main reason is that Leadership Development Structures continue to lag in most organizations.
And we are aware that in some cases, organizations don't know where to start...
But We Do, and We Can Help You
To Develop Your People to become the Leader they are meant to be!
As simple as 1-2-3
1
We understand that each organization is unique, and while the pain points might be similar, the way to solve them can be different.
That's why we recommend to start our relationship through an assessment.
Our assessments identify blind spots mainly in Mindset, Leadership & Communication.
2
Once the assessment is executed, a debrief and scenarios to overcome the (now identified) challenges are presented.
The results of the assessment can become a social accountability contract.
3
With a plan in place, the execution can be programmed.
A system to implement them permanently is also recommended.
Moving from Asleep to Awaken
Comparison between Asleep and Awakened People
Asleep people acknowledge they have authority over a specific team or department and are responsible for organizing, planning, and directing the work of their subordinates. Subsequently, they focus on tasks, processes, and ensure that deadlines and objectives are met. Their main goal is to efficiently accomplish the organizational objectives within the established parameters and guidelines.
In contrast, awakened leaders focus on influencing and guiding their team to achieve broader, and often longer-term goals. They inspire and empower their team members, fostering a positive work environment, and promoting enthusiasm and innovation. They tend to prioritize the development and personal growth of their team members and may often lead by example, emphasizing values and fostering a shared vision.
Managers are typically appointed due to their experience and expertise in their field, but leaders can emerge from any level of an organization based on their ability to inspire, motivate, and guide others.
Both roles are essential for the success of an organization, striking a balance between effective management and impactful leadership is crucial in promoting a thriving and dynamic work environment.
