Are you drawn to leading as a life purpose?
"The place where your deepest gladness meets the world's deepest
need."
Great leaders are continuously self-renewing.
"We've all experienced the feelings of being so lost in the dense
thickets of our lives that we can't see the paths or figure out how
large the forest really is." - Lama Surya Das
Leading with Spirit is an intensive year-long course for leaders -
executives, managers, and change agents - who see leading as fulfilling
their life
purpose. Participants will deepen their practice, expand their effectiveness,
and explore leadership as their calling in life. The course meets four
times, each for four days. Participants will receive a customized leadership
development program. Monthly one-on-one leadership coaching is provided
for the duration of the course. Written assignments are due before
each
meeting.
Many leadership development programs are multi-day workshops that pump
participants full of models, techniques, and other information that
are great but difficult to put into action given the typicalyl frenetic,
busy, and demanding worklife of leaders. Leaders rarely have the luxury
of stopping to think about what to do next and use new models. Real
leadership development comes from developing our way of being leaders.
Of course, Leading with Spirit also provides you with new models of
leading and organizing that aid your understanding of challenges that
you face.
