What does conscious leadership look like when it is grounded in love, service and truth, and still delivers extraordinary results?

In this episode of the Peace is a Choice podcast, Natasha Wallace is joined by two remarkable guests, Alan Mulally, legendary former CEO of Ford Motor Company and former Boeing leader, and Sarah McArthur, Editor-in-Chief of the Leader to Leader Journal.

Together, they explore what conscious leadership really means in practice, leading with intention, emotional intelligence and a deep commitment to working together. Alan shares the BE and DO of leadership, who we are and how we behave, and introduces his Working Together Leadership and Management System, built around inclusion, psychological safety and long term value for all stakeholders.

They discuss why conscious leadership is not soft, but a real performance advantage. Alan explains how Ford’s weekly business plan reviews and the green, yellow, red status system helped teams tell the truth, ask for help and move faster together. Sarah reflects on what she learned from working with Alan and with Francis Hesselbein, and why the best leaders create cultures where people feel safe, valued and aligned.

The conversation also goes personal. Alan shares the lessons from his parents, to love and be loved and to serve is to live, and how he applied the same principles at home with his family.
