Shraddha has helped numerous individuals discover their inner voice and make significant changes in their per- sonal and professional lives. Shraddha's journey to becoming an intuition expert began during her battle with cancer. She learned to trust her instincts and rely on her inner voice to guide her through the toughest times of her life. Since then, she has dedicated herself to mastering the art of intuition and helping others tap into their own intuitive abilities.

In a conversation with Charulatha, a correspondent in Siliconindia Magazine. Shraddha discussed intuition's role in business leadership success and aligning personal values with the organization's mi- ssion and vision.

Intuition is the most important tool in business leadership, as the direction of business and changing the outside parameters can cause constraints, but intuition, being a part of you, is always available to overcome your constraints

Define the significance of intuition in the realm of business leadership and explore its potential for driving success

Intuitions is an internal navigation system available to every individual. Intuition is a powerful tool in the realm of business leadership. The significance of intuitions can be seen in the light of the fact that they are available to everyone, and every leader has experienced them in some form or another as they have added to their lives.

It is an inner spark that is positive, subtle, and creative. It enhances the energy of the person experiencing it, and being in a great energy zone enhances intuition.

Intuitions are a game changer for driving success. Through intuition, various aspects, such as signing a deal with a potential client, hiring staff, and many other parameters, can be identified with ease. The internal navigation system would always have an answer to your challenges and questions. Only the strength to show up and receive guidance without judging it would be the key.

Intuition is the most important tool in business leadership, as the direction of business and changing the outside parameters can cause constraints, but intuition, being a part of you, is always available to overcome your constraints.

What approaches can be taken to strike a harmonious balance between conventional business strategies and the integration of intuitive insights within coaching sessions?

Strategies are formulated from the space of a lot of statistics, and statistics involve market research, past experiences, and all that plays with logic. In business, if you operate only from the conventional side of logic, you can reach a limited expansion. With intuition, the realm is much wider and bigger. The decision-making that happens from the space of intuitions helps in energetic expansion with ease. As an example, if you have a container of 20 litres, you can only fill it up to 20 litres, but when you have a bigger container, you can accommodate more water. Same is with energy & intuitions. When your energetic container expands, you create a lot of space for growth and expansion with ease. You do not look for strategies. Strategies don’t work unless you work. The best of strategies may fail for businesses if they lack energetic alignment, and the worst of strategies may create wonders if there is energetic alignment between the business and its revenue goals.

To find harmonious balance, businesses start with energetic alignment integrated into business strategies for greater success and expansion. Within coaching sessions, finding the root cause of misalignment, replacing the misalignment with energy spaces of alignment, and then from the space of knowing that the results are certain, inspired actions are chalked to take into the outside world.

In the context of business leadership, how do professionals go about harmonizing a leader's personal values with the broader mission and vision of their organization?

This is a classic example of the conflict that may arise between a leader’s values and the broader mission and vision of their organization. Alignment for organizational success is all about professionals not only aligning with the vision and mission of the organization but also connecting with their values to feel fulfilled and empowered.

In case of a potential conflict, the professionals can:

1. Redefine the reason for their association with their role and organization.
2. Connect with their inner selves to identify synergy between the organizational mission and the value they can bring to make it happen.
3. Work for the space of strength to add value.
4. Express themselves and talk about the space of conflict to find possible solutions.

Awareness is the first step to recognizing this internal conflict. Expressing oneself can help professionals identify new pathways to establish connections.

Could you delve into the role that intuition plays in the realms of crisis management and decision-making when it comes to business leaders?

Intuition plays a huge role in crisis management. In times of crisis, the energy with which you operate means a lot. Intuitions can guide you out of a crisis situation and provide you with opportunities for out-of-the box, creative ideas.
Decision-making through intuition helps leaders scale with ease. The whole game of logic only gives decision-making a limited horizon. The arena of knowing and working from logic keeps shrinking the possibilities a leader can delve into.

Decision-making based on intuition opens up unlimited possibilities. It considers the person who he or she is in this moment, and thus you are not carrying any baggage from the past to stop you.

"The intervention is helping the business leader create a pause for self-reflection, giving them a safe space to see themselves through a non-judgmental lens"

What tactics are utilized to assist business leaders in maintaining equilibrium between intuitive thinking and analytical reasoning during their decision-making processes?

As a coach, the intervention is helping the business leader create a pause for self-reflection, giving them a safe space to see themselves through a non-judgmental lens. Being in the space of reflective inquiry, business leaders are able to carve their path first through intuitive alignment and then through the energetic shift, coming up with inspired actions for specifically implementing them in the real world. The analytical reasoning is just a tiny part of the whole decision-making process, adding to the inputs. The decisions flowing through intuition are the powerful ones that consider the person as who he or she is in this moment, having these strengths and capabilities. The role of past experiences is not there, which makes it easy to master and expand the realm of possibilities. Intuitions give rise to creativity, and creative decisions are always the ones that expand energy.

How do professionals gauge and evaluate the effectiveness of coaching interventions, particularly in terms of their impact on business outcomes?

Coaching interventions impact life and business holistically. Specifically, as a business outcome, professionals receive increased revenue by tapping into premium clients, attracting the right employees with aligning values, and exploring various avenues for growth and expansion. All of this at ease. The numbers growing in all areas, along with the peace, ease, and connection with loved ones, along with enjoying the best health, are the holistic examples of expansion one can feel as an outcome of coaching interventions. Releasing the layers, reducing the burden, genuinely creating that progress, feeling light in approaching people for sales or business, and being able to establish business and personal connections with no effort is a testament to alignment, which is achieved through the powerful space of coaching.
