Andrew Lightheart
works as a coach and consultant with inquiring leaders and organisations who want
to grow inclusive, agile cultures. A long-term meditator, he is fascinated by the
extent to which we can live what Parker Palmer calls an “undivided life” and bring
as much of our true selves to our work as possible.
He is a total group
dynamics nerd and loves little more than to help a group think and do better. He
particularly enjoys supporting an organisation in changing their “shape” over an
extended period of time as the company culture uncle!
Andrew is also
a founding member of Tikbox, a project aimed at disrupting the business-as-usual
conversation about “diversity” so that it becomes more overt about equity and justice
around race, gender, ability and sexuality. He is queer and gender non-binary, and
he always tries to be aware of how social power differences play out in organisational
life.
Andrew is proudly
based at the Impact Hub Birmingham in the UK and is committed to making his city
a fairer place for all. He suspects there might be a future where he does some research
into how the shift from independent to interdependent leadership happens, as he
thinks that might be a key leverage point in the coming decades.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to create a course?
