Great Leadership Starts With Your Heart | Arnaud Saint-Paul

What happens when leaders stop operating from ego and start leading from the heart? In this episode of The Servant Leadership Podcast, Greg Aden sits down with Arnaud Saint-Paul, founder of the Heart Leadership Institute, to explore how personal coherence, self-awareness, and inner alignment can transform leaders, teams, and entire organizations. Arnaud explains why the heart is already whole, while the mind is often fragmented. He also shares how leaders can identify that fragmentation, improve team connection, and create stronger business results.

Helping CEOs reduce internal fragmentation and restore clarity, execution, and alignment | Founder, Tapuat

At a certain stage, something starts to feel off in leadership.

Decisions slow down. Execution becomes inconsistent. Friction builds across the team, despite strong leadership.

Most CEOs I work with don’t lack clarity or capability.

What they’re navigating is internal fragmentation, competing patterns pulling decisions and execution in different directions.

That fragmentation is often invisible. Until it starts affecting performance.

I built Tapuat to make this visible.

We developed a short diagnostic that maps where fragmentation shows up in a leader and their team, and how it impacts clarity, decision-making, and execution.

Across hundreds of leaders, we keep seeing the same pattern:

Performance follows coherence. Fragmentation slows everything down.

Now, that relationship is measurable.
