Here's what I would say about Reiki... It's new-age, it's wacky, it doesn't work. And a lot of silly, gullible people spend their hard earned dollars on it in vain.

That's a popular type of thinking about Reiki and alternative medicine in general. And it's pretty appealing to the logical, scientific brains of our time. Except for one dilemma...Reiki does work and millions of people could say from personal experience that this is true.

So then the question becomes- as we sit atop our high horse in this, the age of reason- how does Reiki work? Or more to the point, why does it work. By all accounts it shouldn't work. It doesn't use any drugs. You don't have to cut into anything or anyone. 'Normal' doctors don't use it. I can't see it with my eyes or hear it with my ears. So, sorry lady. I don't believe it. It just doesn't work.

Except that it does.

Let's look at Reiki a bit here to see if we can figure this out. In a Reiki session you lay your hands on someone and use your life energy to help someone else's life energy to flow. Now that's just downright crazy. Anyone would say it, right. Now Reiki originated in Japan a long time ago. This is all the more reason to be skeptical. I mean no-one knew anything about medicine back then. So how could there be any validity to this stuff at all?

Well it now appears that science itself is coming up with a good and scientific theory to answer the question 'How does Reiki work?' Because Reiki actually does work. And the explanation is coming from the new and pioneer field of high-energy physics. (Hmm. Physics, huh?) As these scientists talk about high-energy physics, they bandy about terms like 'subatomic matter', 'unpolarized' and 'vortex' theory. From all of this, one gets the strong impression that there is some kind of energy flowing- energy that is way too small for us to detect by our standard methods of measurement.

However, we can certainly feel this energy. And we feel it distinctly- such as the tingling, warm, pins-and-needles feeling that a Reiki practitioner has in the hands as he or she works on someone. We also feel it when we are practiced upon- like a sensation of warmth, or even cold, in an area of the body that is worked upon. (Hmph. You're not just pulling my leg are you?)

Now let's take a better look at who has been using this Reiki stuff. If we really put our minds to it, we may be surprised at what we find out. For instance, do you remember the old biblical 'laying on of hands?' I hate to say it, but that does sound an awful lot like Reiki. So maybe, when we look back to our past as a race, we can see that people in the days of old were not as dopey as we once thought. They had some kind of intrinsic knowledge, for instance, that if something works- don't question, don't ask why or how- just use it. I wonder sometimes if we can't use a slice of their common-sense, old fashioned though it is to the Age of Reason advocates.

Power can be defined as the ability to shape and alter the course of events. It is both a necessary, and perhaps the most distrusted component exigent to human progress. While power is often misused, it remains an essential part of implementation. If an organization is to see its goals achieved, it must find leaders who understand how to wield power and act appropriately.

Leadership competence coaching creates competent leaders who can mange with any one of four different styles as the need arises. Commanding leadership gives orders, and provides rewards or punishments as needed to achieve the desired goals. Shaping leadership connects with its subordinates on a personal level and this connection creates loyalty. Persuading leadership and inducing leadership negotiate with the subordinates and draw out a self-understanding of the need to achieve the desired goals.

Business leaders can become exceptionally skilled negotiators with leader competence coaching. In organizations, good negotiating is a very important skill to possess. Leaders must also implement the right approach to negotiation. The objective should be to reach agreements that satisfy all persons involved and are equally fair to everybody.

As an executive coach, it is very imperative as the leader to communicate with its employees and teammates. Even though it is important to communicate in written form when it comes to formal mission statements, it is much more influential to communicate verbally rather than a typed letter.

Leadership competence coaching is progressive because it recognizes the importance of listening. Although it has been the least emphasized, listening is the most critical part of communication, especially because it is the first way to influence others. To promote effective listening in group situations, try this strategy: before anyone speaks up, he or she must accurately and satisfactorily restate the ideas and feelings that the previous speaker articulated.

Thus, a business leader's actions should foster strong business practices to follow. Which means that the leader needs to follow up their words with actions that demonstrate their commitment to the strategy. They should be available to administrate, strategize, plan, transform, and problem solve. Leadership competence coaching shows the leader how to do these things and so much more as well.

Power requires the ability to influence people and affect the course of future events and is essential if an organization wishes to see its proposals applied. An organization relies on leaders who understand the uses of power and act in a responsible and ethical manner. Leadership competence coaching teaches techniques that work with the proposed leader to make them more aware of their surroundings, having them adjust to different situations while guiding their followers. These techniques teach a. Business leaders how to alter their negotiation approach based on the current situation. b. Executive coaches the importance of listening.
