Coherence in Incoherent Times: what does leadership ask of us today?
In a world shaped by constant pressure, fragmentation, and competing demands, many leaders are quietly asking themselves a deeper question:
How do I stay aligned — between my work, my family life, and who I am — without burning out or losing myself?
This question was at the heart of a recent EBBF dialogue with Wendi Momen MBE JP FRSA , titled “Coherence in Incoherent Times: The Art of Aligning Work, Family, and Self.”

Wendi’s reflections offer something rare and deeply needed: a reminder that ethical leadership begins not with strategy, but with inner coherence.
Some powerful insights from her journey include:
*Why coherence between professional and personal life is not a luxury, but a leadership responsibility
*How misalignment at home, at work, or within ourselves eventually shows up in our organizations
*Why trust, presence, and psychological safety start with leaders who live their values consistently
*How choosing coherence helps us lead with greater clarity, resilience, and humanity — even in uncertain systems
This conversation is not about finding the perfect balance.
It’s about cultivating alignment — moment by moment — between what we believe, how we lead, and how we live.
If you are navigating complexity, juggling multiple roles, or sensing that the old ways of “separating” work and life no longer serve us, this story will resonate deeply.
