« This app is brilliant!
I got SO much out following every single step. It's been an amazing experience that lead me to greater clarity about my life values. For the first time in my life, I've written them down and carry them with me as a private manifesto and art diary in the "MY INSIGHTS" feature.

A compass for Personal Leadership
Personal Leadership is about leading yourself and others – towards fulfilling ambitions and through challenges incl. stress. – by drawing on the full spectrum of your inner and outer resources
​
It is not just for leaders.
Personal Leadership is about:
-
leading inwards = how to bring your resources into play and bring yourself into a resourceful state of mind
-
leading downwards = how to lead employees or other leaders
-
leading upwards = how to lead your boss or board
-
leading sidewards = how to lead colleagues through challenges or resistance affecting the team, leadership group or the board of directors
No matter how professional a leader or employee you are, you will inevitably run into challenges, such as:
-
opting out
-
being clear about your needs
-
being clear in your communication
-
taking “the difficult talk” with a boss, employee, colleague etc
-
managing your state of mind incl. stress levels, energies and resistance
-
prioritizing and navigating between opportunities and limitations
-
delegating and listening to input
-
handling ”the new ways of working” after covid19 such as leading and working remotely
-
navigating in diversity
For many, the constant flow of new areas of responsibility, not opting out and the lack of boundaries, results in higher work pressure that results in sidetracking private life and health. Thus, it’s not surprising that half of the Danish work force has experienced increased stress-levels in the past 2 weeks. See link on https://www.artspeaksofyou.com/stress-og-trivsel
AsoY is complete concept consisting of workshops, 1:1, follow-up programs and a neuro-intelligent app, that is designed as a visual compass for personal leadership – for mapping resources in and around yourself, in order to make better decisions and act on them.
The app guides you step by step to access personal strengths, drivers, relations and mental states that you can use immediately in your current situation in a concrete way that comes easily and naturally.
Many avoid addressing challenges, because they are unsure what to say or do. AsoY offers a tool and trains a practical method that builds your personal leadership and expands your sphere of action, allowing you to act in way that doesn’t feel wrong or conflictual, but authentic and responsible.
​
WHAT DOES AsoY BUILD ON?
Neuroscience, the philosophy of art, coaching, psychology and mindfulness.
​
​
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The app is a “neuro-intelligent” tool that draws on the way in which pictures and works of art affect the brain, the nervous system and the hormonal balance.
​
Pictures and works of art stimulate mirror neurons in the brain and guide us automatically behind our rational thoughts, allowing us to see new perspectives on ourselves and others. Without needing to know anything about art!
​
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE APP?
5 steps with clear instructions and coaching questions provide deep insight into personal resources, answers, options and solutions that may be used here and now.
​
WHAT’S UNIQUE?
Two neuro-intelligent features – visual nudging & tracking – make it easy to:
-
implement the insights you get
-
follow your results, development and mental health over time
-
re-connect with the resources and resourceful mental states, you have mapped in the app in < 10 sec.
-
reduce stress automatically: when looking at works of art you like, it immediately lowers cortisol levels in the blood and boosts feel-good hormones like serotonin.
​
​
AsoY works at cellular level.
​
By facilitating a mindful and coaching process, it trains and supports you in taking control of your situation, your ambitions and state of mind.
