What does leadership mean to you as a highly perceptive soul?

Please share your insight...

Greetings, I'm Bevin Niemann, mentor at PerceptiveSouls.com and founder of the Global Cooperative for Sensitive Leaders. I'm considering creating an online leadership academy for highly perceptive people, but before I make that leap, it's vital to first understand how you view the role of leadership.

I invite you to take a few moments to share your own journey as a leader or observations of others' leadership styles. Your answers are completely confidential.
