The Situation Digitalization, the web, and mobility maximize human's individuality, independence, and impatience with unprecedented power. Nevertheless many businesses still negate the paradigm shift: - New consumers: individuality, independence, and impatience create 'Informal Markets', calling for innovative playing fields (markets), new rules (business models), and innovative thinking (leadership). - New entrepreneurs: revolutionary business models and markets, products and services, virtues and values skyrocket - unmatched by traditional brands, managers, and businesses! Many companies are trapped in their obsolete beliefs and yesterday's successes - too much did they invest in their concepts and structures. Anyhow: "we cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them", Albert Einstein. Human's new individuality, independence, impatience may only be anticipated with courageous entrepreneurial independence, brilliance, relevance: the corporate minds must outgrow themselves! |

Distinctive Leadership Manifesto:
"I would like us to take ourselves and others seriously - but not all-too important. Would like us to stop making sense, ie. to courageously perfect our talents and personal vision - as individual, brand or corporation.I would like us to value brilliance over instant gratification. Would like us not to look for distractions, but to find solutions. Would like us to stop surfing every fad we stumble upon. I would like us to long for more knowledge than we need to - it's the only way to create innovation. Would like us to pose the right questions instead of knowing all the answers. |
"Outgrow Yourself, Inspire the World!"
Would like us to mutually understand each other in simple words.I would like us to make a difference finally: become independent, brilliant and relevant, outgrow ourselves, coin Monopolistic Moments and create value(s). I would like us to become mirror, role model and inspiration for others - as individual, brand or corporation. I would like us to live Distinctive Leadership, and thereby become truly and sustainably successful - for the good, benefit and wealth of our surroundings and ourselves."

Our Goal Distinguished goal is to grow brands, managers & businesses into leadership positions - challenge & coach them to outgrow themselves (and let them inspire their world). Everybody, every employee, every brand and every corporation could master the small and big(ger than life) challenges - if only they knew their talents, and questioned themselves, challenged and outgrew themselves, inspired others sustainably. Everybody, every employee, every brand, and every corporation could make a difference every single day, create value(s) for the consumer and add value to the corporation. Everybody, every employee, every brand, and every corporation could outgrew themselves and become more creative, innovative, and productive - in three easy but, yes, quite challenging steps! |
|
Our Path The path to Distinctive Leadership consists of I - of independence, to make a difference, II - brilliance, to outgrow ourselves, III - relevance, by which people are inspired - three simple, but challenging steps towards a new way of thinking! Without independence in thought and action one is not really brilliant, without brilliance not distinctively relevant. Without relevance, everything - in the truest sense - remains meaningless. |
|
Our Philosophy The rsc // challenge & coach® self-help supporting approach encourages future independence from organized consultancy. I - challenge raises the bar, requires mental stretching and (self) reflection of individual, brand and corporation. challenge irritates through new perspectives and provokes by 'rubbing it in' in a constructive way. II - coach initiates strategic intuition and visionary thinking, and helps to solve the small and large challenges of daily business. coach unfolds the intuitive, inspiring and effective leadership personality as role model in private life and business. challenge stipulates individuals to outgrow themselves according to their talents. coach supports its consistent and successful realization. |

Strategies & Competencies of Distinctive Leadership
Talent and Change Management Leadership Strategy: intuition/company [corporation > business consultancy] The corporation consists of individuals and brands. They want to develop, want to grow, want to self-actualize, want to have true success. They are united by a vision, bigger than the individual.. I - Awake the Individual! - [independence] Change Management: Creativity, innovation and productivity must move back in into the company - on all levels. Talent/Empowerment: The individual needs an individual, constructive and challenging perspective and feedback to enable her to offer a relevant and challenging perspective to the corporation in return. Intrapreneurship: How to awake the inspiration/leader thinking within the individual? How to live a culture of feedback and perspective on a daily level? II De/Construct Culture! - [brilliance] Productivity: Encrusted - 'arrogant', 'ignorant', 'intolerant' - (mental) structures, cultures and systems are to be dispersed. They squash creativity and innovation. They squash differentiation and value creation. They squash Distinctive Leadership. They are the biggest wasters of time, money and human resources. The intuition/company unites highest efficiency with maximum effectiveness, because most company processes run on a subconscious level, dis/continuous change is anticipated and - by that - the ability to reinvent itself is enforced (- without pushing too hard!). Structural elegance: How to relocate 99% of all processes to the intuitive level? How to perfect the corporation's structure, department's teamplay and the individual's attitude? How to integrate flexibility and plasticity into the corporation's DNA? Cultural elegance: How to mature in a future-, client- and strategy-oriented way? How to shape a learning organization? How to unite Disruptive Innovation and Continuous Improvement? How to develop a culture of brilliance, activation and change optimizing efficiency, effectiveness and productivity of every individual and activity? III Create Pure Purpose! - [relevance] Now, as an intuitively anticipating and (continuously) changing, living organism, the corporation concentrates all relevant resources on differentiation (via the creation of Monopolistic Moments), optimum value creation (via continuous improvement and radical innovation), and inspiration of all stakeholders (via role model thought and action). Innovation: How to perfect the corporation's culture, brand and business model based on an ongoing strategy, value creation and innovation process? How to lead the innovation-dialogue with the individual to coin Monopolistic Moments? Value(s) Creation: How to create meaning and value? How to create values for the individual (consumer) and add value to the corporation? rsc // intuition/company® coaches, consults and supports Top Management to perfect the corporation into a tailor-made intuition/company - by applying coaching, mentoring, trainings-on-the-job, scenario-workshops and interims-management. rsc // intuition/company® establishes an empathetic, intuitive culture and structure, creating values for the individual (consumer) and adds value to the corporation. Leadership Strategy: lead/marke [brand > brand challenging] The brand is the corporation's younger sister. Persona and personality. The brand - being in charge - would consequently and consistently be itself, and not adaption, variation, second placement. Not ubiquitously sold at a rebate, positioned far and wide. I - Brand Ambition! - [independence] Feel like the brand! Image: The brand wants to be authentic. Wants to be loved. For its own sake. Passion: Wants to be unique. Wants to live her own identity and agenda, realize its own passions and ambitions. Ambition: How may the brand become independent and change the game for ever? How to be a spark and leave a mark? Positioning: The brand wants to be a personality without being bent. Wants to treat people like she wants to be treated herself. How may she reduce herself to the Relevant? II - Brand (& Team-)Culture! - [brilliance] Priorities: As long as agencies' inattention, hyperactivity and impulsiveness are taking center stage and not the brand, it cannot beat expectations, it cannot amaze people. Productivity: How to free the brand from the Caucasian Circle of its broader brand team? Effectiveness: How to integrate the team members and make them truly interactive? How to speak as a team and with one single voice? How to develop as a future-, consumer- and strategy-oriented brand? How to act as mirror and role model? III - Brand Engagement! - [relevance] Interaction: The brand wants to connect with individuals, wants to communicate in a dialogue, wants to interact, wants to collect experiences playfully and wants to be experienced by everybody. Innovation: The brand centers around the creative anticipation of fast-changing needs of consumption and communication. The brand wants to pioneer, wants to live a vision and create value(s). Relevance: How to coin Monopolistic Moments as Win-Win situations? Which brand experience lets the individual truly engage herself to the benefit of brand or corporation? How to become inspiring avantgarde? How to pioneer just that much that people still love to follow? How to treat people like the brand would love to be treated herself? rsc // lead/marke® coaches, consults and supports the brand and its team to become a successful lead/marke - by applying coaching, mentoring, trainings-on-the-job and interims-management. rsc // lead/marke® does not manage, but truly live the brand! Leadership Strategy: inspiration/leader [manager > individual development] Only those, who question themselves continuously, outgrow themselves, and inspire others through thought and action will be truly successful. I - Awake! - [independence] The individual's uniqueness is inherent. The individual talent and potential are one's true strength. They have to be (re-)animated, they have to be challenged and fostered. They provide the basis for individuality, creativity and productivity. Who will awake me, if I can't? Who will challenge me, if I don't dare? How do I start acting, and stop talking? How can I change the rules of the game, be a spark and leave a mark? II - Grow! - [brilliance] An authentic identity and its ambitious and continuous perfection are prerequisites of a self-conscious, consistent personality. How do I continuously challenge and perfect myself? Become more effective & efficient? More creative & innovative? More empathetic & intuitive? How do I recognize (new) patterns? How do I eliminate my tunnelvision? III - Inspire (the Next)! - [relevance] The sustainably successful leadership personality is characterized by the ability to wow and enthuse people, to present a vision worth following, to inspire people by being accepted role model in private life and business. How do I become relevant in the context of culture, nature and future? How do I base my decisions on wisdom, and my communication on clarity? How do I inspire sustainably? rsc // inspiration/leader® coaches, consults and supports the individual to identify, perfect and effectively capitalize on the individual's talents and uniqueness - for the good, benefit and wealth of one's surrounding and oneself. rsc // inspiration/leader® is not the next management fad, but effective Distinctive Leadership by inspiration & example. Demanding leitmotif of all Leadership Strategies are the golden rules, questionnaires and purpose profiles of the challenge phase. Within the coach phase we destill the individual effective Distinctive Leadership Strategy out of the 3 steps independence - brilliance - relevance and the 9 leadership competencies. This is the base for the individual's, brand's and corporation's success. |
