What Intention and Presence have to do with Intentional Leadership
Intentional Leadership is a leadership model based on an invitation to engage in an inspired vision fueled by passion. Intentional Leadership is all about allowing ideas that match your vision vs. controlling outcomes.
Intention and Presence are key aspects of the Intentional Leadership Model.

It feels good to be around this kind of leader because they are present and passionately engaged in a clear intention. Intention drives vision. The pathway to intention is presence. When you are connected with your core instincts through a state of presence, there is a flow of ideas and possibilities that you might not otherwise experience.
Three top leadership qualities that are highly significant in the workplace are passion, authenticity, and invitation.

Your Life Intention is an “essence” statement, meant to capture the heart of what you want your life to be about. It’s very brief, only a sentence or two at most. It isn’t about the many things you want to do in life. It’s more about how you want to “be.” It often includes 2 aspects; the impact you want to have on others and/or how you want to be as a person.
How Can Business Owners Become Authentic Leaders
By Razelle Janice Drescher
Business owners can become authentic leaders by connecting to their passion and inspiring others to join their vision. To be a leader who others want to follow, you have to be clear about the vision you have for your business and able to communicate it to others in a way that generates clarity, focus and enthusiasm. The owner has to know what he wants from his business to get the return on his investment of time and money. A healthy business needs a strong foundation. The business vision is the first step to empowering authentic leaders to live their passion. Then you have to do what it takes to make that happen in a way that sets you apart from your competition.
Authentic leadership starts with the basic building blocks. When all the necessary building blocks are in place, they become the strong foundation for a business that is poised for healthy day-to-day operation and growth. Without the basic building blocks, the business often just doesn’t work as well as it could. And if it does work well, it seems that the people dedicated to making it happen pay a high price in the form of frustration, disappointment or overwhelm.
