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.
