Equipping you with a toolkit of mindfulness and somatic leadership practices to help you lead more naturally and integratively while navigating complex systems.
Now more than ever, we find ourselves in a world of conflict and separation. Traditional approaches to business, economics, and leadership no longer serve us.
To create the Next Economy, we need leaders who draw intelligence from their head, heart and senses: those who know how to follow their inner compass to chart the course and successfully navigate the contradictions and complexities of leadership.
Through experiential enquiry, this Deep Dive has been designed to equip changemakers with a toolkit of mindfulness and somatic leadership practices to enable them to lead more naturally and integratively. By tapping into our collective wisdom, we'll cultivate aliveness, openness, coherence and courage in ourselves, our organisations and society.
This program is tailored for leaders in decision-making positions and organisations and communities seeking deep understanding and valuable techniques to navigate the complexities of leadership with courage and authenticity. The skills you'll build in this course will empower your personal leadership and equip you to lead others beyond conflict – individual identities, cultures, and ‘us' vs. ‘them' mindsets – towards regenerative new solutions.
During these eleven weeks, we will explore some of today's cultural, social, and environmental challenges. We'll delve into why our organisations and communities so often generate outcomes that no one wants and how we can shift both ourselves and the systems around us.
The Interconnected Leader will introduce you to tools, practices and frameworks that support you in deepening your understanding and awareness of the dynamics and structures around you and in your own thinking and how they bring about issues from a leadership and management context. We do this through exploring ideas of paradox, complexity and the emerging future.
The Interconnected Leader offers a more hands-on, interpersonal, collaborative, and transformative learning setting than you may have previously experienced in online programs.
Course material will highlight the latest science, leadership modalities and techniques to explore the many facets of interconnection, including:
It will also offer important insights into the interpersonal neurobiology of our body-mind connection to notice and apply the language of our entire somatic and emotional spectrums to generate solutions for ourselves, others and the environment.
