Personal Leadership and Success

Leadership is often approached in terms of one's ability to understand and direct our external environment including people, organizations, and events.

Personal Leadership and Success takes the view that to succeed professionally one needs to develop another dimension of leadership consisting of the ability to understand and direct one's internal environment — goals, motivations, mindsets, and emotions.

This three-day program offers a distinctive approach that integrates recent findings in psychology, neuroscience, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness with explorations of the inner lives of great achievers such as Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, and Nelson Mandela.

Participants are invited on a journey of self-discovery, investigating inner thoughts, emotions, and mindsets, to discover how they affect our everyday interactions and personal leadership style.

Until recently, the only way to explore this mastery of the inner environment has been through the teachings of philosophers, prophets, or self-help "gurus." These historical and modern sources of wisdom essentially rely on faith while Personal Leadership and Success replaces this approach with scientifically validated, practical insights and techniques for understanding and mastering one's inner environment.
