WELCOME TO THE INAUGURAL

Edition Of Lead Magazine

LEAD is all about ‘when making a difference is as important as making a profit.’ It’s been a dream of mine and the team at Rock Your Life & Infinite Publishing to have our own magazine for many years.

LEAD is not about us. It’s about you… the leaders, in your community, industry, country and the difference that you make every single day.

We love and are committed to the concept of conscious leadership. This is not about spirituality, as your religious or spiritual beliefs are your own. It’s about the need for everyone in a Leadership Role, and that is most people on the planet as parents, coaches, teachers, businesspeople or en-trepreneurs, to understand that we each leave a massive footprint during our lives and because of things such as the ‘Butterfly’ effect that footprint may be good, bad and in some cases even dread-ful.

Consider the teen who just wants to be rich, ends up a banker and has to make decisions about people’s lives and businesses. It’s not what they may have ever considered, but it becomes their reality. We are all able of response… responsible.. but are we informed, are we conscious, do we consider the impact of what we are doing on a daily basis.

Along with Evans Manyonga our publication consultant and the team we had many stories to choose from for this first edition.

In doing so we simply all agreed on Maya Shahani for the cover. Mike met Maya in 2006, a real life slum dog millionaire whose journey and realisation about what she could do for the planet is an inspiration to all of us. We long ago lost count of her awards, the sheer number of schools, hospitals, charities she is involved in, but we will never forget her interaction with President Clinton upon her being invited to join the Clinton Global Initiative in 2008. Maya is a brilliant and appropriate cover girl for what we stand for.

Please share the magazine with friends and associates. This is one way of helping people stay on track and making our world a better place now and in the future.
