    innovation

  • Inspired enterprise is an offering for you who who care deeply about people and the planet; who are ready to be enterprising in ways that are new, ancient, healthy, natural, creative and multidimensional, and robust, practical and grounded; using enterprise as a vehicle for change, a structure to fulfil your dharma, service and, to create more love and kindness in the world.

    In this time, we are being called to transition into new ways of living, working and learning; to innovate, create and generate what we need in this time of the great transition and birthing of the new earth.

    The paradigm of business, as it was, is now over; the game, the competition, the manipulation of needs and desires to stimulate demand, the emphasis on profit over people and planet, the old terminologies and techniques; the programmes, the constructs, the systems, the ways we work together; make decisions, lead and collaborate.

    This is the time of inspired enterprise; tending to the true needs of people and planet; for those needs cared for with thoughtful, genuine offerings and real care for customers; people who seek to live in harmony with nature and each other the best we can; a time for multidimensional approaches that celebrate our nature as creative beings; create new, kinder and nourishing ways to 'do business' for the highest good; to materialise a world of freedom to live as part of nature on this earth.

    Ushered into studying business as a young, fledgling artist, enterprise became my place to channel my innate creativity, empathy, visual and design thinking, craft and fascination with people, social history, place, nature, communication and connection; the world of business always felt strange to me, yet difficult to articulate; until now, when it all makes sense, as we see what is ansd has been unfolding around the world.

     

    In recent years, my active inquiry into conscious business has become my path of awakening; and continues to be. Integrating this with art, nature, connection to source, and purifying programmes and conditioning, has brought me to this place, of inspired enterprise; an integrated, multi-dimensional and inter-disciplinary approach to creating change in the world through the best of 

     

    My dharma is to catalyse movement forward towards the new earth, through enterprise, innovation and communication.

    "Leela is utterly unique; I know no-one else like her. Each time we meet or work together, the experience leaves me inspired. She is so giving of her knowledge, her energy and unparalleled authenticity - that I find myself, as a storyteller, short for words. Leela is a firebrand, a soul-counsellor and superlatives aside, a great person to work with."

     
    Martin Deakin - Leadership Storyteller & Communications

    Her approach is creative, leftfield, technically excellent all wrapped up in great stakeholder management. She is a refreshing change from the 'formula' approach in her field.”

    Bill Dudman - Hiring Consultant

    How to describe working with Leela Grace?! Imagine the most creative, boundary-less brain, inside a whole-hearted human with a deep deep curiosity and care. And then add in a large dose of systemic and organisational nouse, and relaxed confidence with the senior leaders in any organisation; Leela is brave in saying she sees the world differently and what an incredible perspective you will gain if you listen up.”

    Aly-King-Smith

    “Over 6 sessions Leela helped me strengthen my own resilience and that of my team; 6 months on and I have now instigated a team resilience programme, tackled performance-related issues across my team, supported others struggling with change management, and most importantly have a confidence in myself to continue navigating us through the growth of my organisation. I recommend her to anyone wanting to strengthen their leadership and create resilience in their team or organisation.”

    Lucy - Global Leadership Team (nda)

    Leela is like no-one else I have ever met; she's quite simply brilliant. She is a unique blend of creativity, intuition and smarts. 

     

    Her crystal clear process took me on an amazing journey starting from a spark of an idea - and ending in a fully formed business plan. Like a spiral, Leela's questions led me deep into the core of the idea. One of the keys of the process is the visual map that Leela creates for each session. These maps helped me to link things together in new ways, and see new possibilities - ultimately coming up with a better concept."

     

    Dawn Gosling - Director

    “Leela is a joy to work with. A high spirit and drive are allied to a thoughtful planned approach and she is always looking for more; more aspects, more avenues and especially more marketing directions. Leela worked on a wellbeing project with me and I would have never got it up and running without her.”

     
    Brent Curless - Entrepreneur

    "I had some business coaching with Leela some 18 months ago - it illuminated and released the potential of the thoughts, dreams and dynamics of my business. We created a visual structure which allowed me to see my business more deeply, and from new perspectives - and I immediately saw clearly where it needed to go.

     

    Leela facilitated clarity for the future and in our session and mapped out a visual roadmap with intentions and next steps; this vision has been coming to fruition ever since and has become my reality.

     

    Her way of working is very magical and unique. I can honestly say that that this is the absolute best money I have ever spent in terms of life and business coaching and encourage anyone at a crossroads, looking for direction, needing to make conscious decisions and being clear about next steps to embark on, you won't be disappointed, you will be blown away."

     

    Emma Jackman - Founder of Conscious Chocolate

    "Your coaching has the style that suits me: suggestive, experimental, visual and compact. Thank you for your listening, creativity and knowledge all in a realm of authenticity and potency. What I got out of our sessions was the opportunity to create new out of chaos. To create future out of things that were ending. To give a new meaning to ambition.”

     

    Annemieke Jonas - Pilates Specialist & Studio

    ‘The sessions were thought-provoking and created ideas that were able to be implemented on a practical level; meaning that the new insights had an immediate effect.’

     

    Richard Reid - Pinnacle Therapy

    "I never had such an experience before. I think many peoples in India need such coaching to take out their hidden dreams and show to them. And also showing them the possibilities and way forward.”

     

    Shiva Prakash - Ayurvedic Practiitoner

    "We greatly enjoyed working with you to create a visual representation of what we do. Leela and the team really helped us think carefully about the how we wanted to share the artefact and who it was for – and this ensured the end result is great and represents us very well."
