Transform your
leadership dynamism
to inspire, influence
and innovate every day.
Human potential is our most valuable commodity yet under-looked by disconnected practices and systems that reduce the wholeness of human essence to codified algorithms and outdated patterns.
Perhaps the most empowering transformation we can make is to energize our own transformation by cultivating the conditions where resilience, creativity and human connections naturally flow.
The silver lining is that humans are uniquely curious and resourceful when free to use their instinctive talents.
Let's reconnect the dots and create the conditions for humans to shine.

Helping leaders to shape the conditions for success - dynamic ecosystems where people are connected to what matters and energized to do their best work.
Every organization has a heartbeat - an energy source that gives it life and meaning. My superpower is the ability to tune into the essence that makes an organization tick and turn that into a tangible commodity. The approach is systemic and pragmatic. The results are transformational.

Hi, I'm Terena King
I create synthesis across complex systems and ignite human potential to innovate and transform
Transformation is a natural process of growth
Terena is a unique authority on transformational leadership and is respected for executing ecosystem transformations that have delivered systemic step-change. An inspiring and intuitive shapeshifter she has synthesized 30 years of rapid transformation into a Leaders' Ecosystem* framework that can be used to shape dynamics across complex, interconnected dimensions in real time.
"The elegance of the Leader's Ecosystem*® is the ease with which people see the interplay of dynamics relative to them. This opens dialogue with systems partners for collaborative exploration."
Transformation is an iterative, fractal process where new possibilities become visible as choices are made. The ability to innovate is more about creating a culture of human connection + flow and less about control + seeking certainty. This can seem counterintuitive and strike resistance in environments that lean towards rigid mindsets and rational-logical decisions. Yet to avoid getting stuck in oscillating patterns the antidote is to inclusively expand perspective and enable creativity to flow.
Terena is an intuitive sense-maker who integrates ancient philosophies and wisdom with interdisciplinary methodologies, positive psychology, neuroscience, and lessons taken from personal and corporate life. She has orchestrated initiatives that have positively impacted the growth of tens and tens of thousands of people and built global communities of interest that continue to flourish.
"There's an amazing energy shift when you ask people to describe their ideal state and they discover how close that reality actually is, and the role they can play, right now, to make it happen."
Terena partners with leaders and entrepreneurs, as a mentor, coach and facilitator. At a heart-felt level she loves creating inclusive intergenerational collaborations where everyone plays an active part, listening, sharing perspectives and wisdom, stretching beyond paradigms and preset 'rules' and creating magic.

"My greatest learning was 'trust the process'. I confess I went in with a predetermined mindset.
I never imagined we would achieve such an innovative and globally recognized outcome.
It was a career highlight."
Sponsor, former Diplomat, All-of-Government International Initiative

"It was powerful to sit around the table with government officials, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and academics, some with 50+ years' experience, sharing perspectives and creating solutions to complex scenarios. It gave me confidence and elevated my career aspirations. Well done Terena you created an enduring community, and I am grateful to still be a part of it."
