To lead well
  is a soul matter.


MAKING THE DECISION

Do you view leadership as a way to find meaning and purpose in your life?  Are you disillusioned that your leadership is not having the result you wish it would have?  Are you experiencing overwhelm, exhaustion, or a lack of joy in your leadership?  Are you questioning whether you have the inner strength to face challenges within a group?  Do you feel you lack the leadership skills needed in our crisis-filled world?  Are you searching for a spiritual approach to your leadership?

Ask yourself if now is the time to devote yourself to beginning (or deepening) your spiritual journey of leadership.  Using a holographic philosophical framework, The Awakened Leader Study Program addresses these topics:  leadership as destiny, soul development of the leader, the leader’s shadow, soul lessons of the leader, healthy boundaries and integrity of the leader, founder’s syndrome from a soul perspective, dangers and beneficent protection of leaders, and women leaders.

The Awakened Leader Study Program consists of four lessons of study. You will work with one lesson each month, allowing time to integrate its teaching at a gradual pace. As part of making your decision to enroll, carefully read the program requirements and time commitments listed below.

FOUR-MONTH STUDY PROGRAM

Based on The Awakened Leader: Leadership as a Classroom of the Soul, this course is designed to support you in experiencing Stage Five leadership as a classroom for the soul’s evolution. For optimal use of the study program material, you must be willing to acknowledge the unrealized potential in yourself and to recognize projection, denial, and neglect in your own and others’ leadership. When you know that a reservoir of creativity and psychological and spiritual strength lies hidden within you, you can safely commit to improving the quality of your inner state and thus the quality of your service.  You can experience service as a joyful presence in your life.
