Leader, Know Thyself, says Dr Shivani Khetan
Leader, Know Thyself. How can one even think of leading and understanding others, without understanding oneself. In her book titled, “Enhancing Leadership Skills Through Deeper Self-Awareness- The Uncharted Terrains of Clinical Hypnotherapy and Expressive Arts”, Dr Shivani Khetan provokes leaders to know themselves first and shares practical tips and insights for developing deeper self-awareness.
The book discusses a wide range of tools to develop deeper self-awareness, and become a more effective leader in the process. The wide range of tools reflect wide range of skills of Dr Shivani including enhancing self-awareness, rewiring limiting beliefs, de-addiction, and enhancing overall mental wellness.
On the face of it, many of the things which Dr Shivani talks about in the book as well as a practitioner can be intriguing to a layman. Tapping into the sub-conscious mind with clinical hypnotherapy, using expressive arts for therapy, using Taichi, narrative therapy and NLP-K for mental wellness are some fascinating yet mysterious areas. She demystifies these complex concepts in the book and how they empower people and transform lives.
Her book connects the dots very well and builds bridges between emotional healing and mental wellness, self-awareness and leadership, expressive arts and therapy, and mind and body. She also co-relates very well, how enhanced self-awareness makes you a more effective leader, tools for reflection for leaders and how creative arts can improve productivity indirectly by enhancing the mental health of a person. Emotional healing, breaking mental blocks and rewiring limiting beliefs are new areas whose potential is yet to be tapped for enhancing both efficiency and effectiveness of leaders. Entrepreneurs, CEOs and sales professionals in particular can specially benefit from these sections, though they are useful for every reader.
Dr Shivani has been one of the pioneers of clinical hypnotherapy and expressive arts therapy in India. The book provokes thought as well as shares insights with practical tips for leaders.
