People follow leaders because they are inspired by their presence and competency, not their intellect or position of authority. A self-confident leader, who has cultivated emotional intelligence, can build trust quickly and inspire others into higher levels of collaboration.
The School of Embodied Leadership will not only increase your self-confidence; you will find yourself experiencing greater endurance, strength, flexibility and agility. It will focus all your talents into purposeful action and you will create the capacity to produce valuable results.
This is an intensive training in developing yourself as a leader. You will learn to value, motivate, and bring out the best in yourself and the people with whom you work.
Experiential exercises and team practices used in the course will dramatically strengthen your ability to stay focused and committed to your goals in the midst of complexity and chaos. Of primary importance is developing your core strength to extend into the world with clear intention, skillful action and grounded compassion.
The School of Embodied Leadership is real leadership in a living laboratory. It not an academic exercise, but a rigorous training in mind, body and spirit. It provides a balanced nexus that is the source of power for the exemplary leader.
- Body: To be able to fulfill your mission as a leader, it is important to become physically fit. This means possessing strength, agility, flexibility, coordination and endurance. You DO NOT have to possess this level of fitness to be in the course, we will teach you how to balance this area in your life. You will learn new and innovative ways to maintain a high level of fitness.
- Mind: To be able to fulfill your mission as a leader, you need mental discipline. You need to be able to concentrate, release negative thinking, calm and settle your emotions, remain open to possibilities, think through difficult situations, and visualize positive results. This course will develop these skills of emotional intelligence and focus.
- Spirit: To be able to fulfill your mission as a leader, it is important to have a code that you live by, values on which you are willing to stake your life. This requires reflecting on, thinking through, publicly declaring, and embodying the values you deem most important. This course will ask you to focus on what you care about, what you see possible and what you are committed to achieving.
