NEWS | THE ENLIGHTENED LEADER WORKSHOP


Leadership Training Offered June 23rd through 25th

The Enlightened Leader program is a groundbreaking collaboration between the developers of the Personal Leadership methodology and the meditation teachers at The Movement Center.

This workshop will provide the environment and tools to enable you to reach your highest potential as a leader, benefiting society, organizations, teams and self. Our fundamental premise is that leadership begins with the capacity to lead oneself. Personal Leadership involves taking charge of all of your resources - heart, body, mind, and awareness of creative energy.

The curriculum combines the tools and interactive exercises of Personal Leadership with yogic practices that cultivate stillness and awareness.



In this workshop you will learn to:

• Develop leadership-of-others skills aligned with spiritual practice
• Generate options for action in situations where you feel stuck
• Engage in challenging situations with curiosity rather than fear
• Sustain high levels of motivation and commitment
• Immediately apply new insights to daily activities and relationships

ABOUT PERSONAL LEADERSHIP

Developed by Drs. Sheila Ramsey, Barbara Schaetti and Gordon Watanabe, the Personal Leadership methodology has been applied over the last 15 years in contexts ranging from global business to teambuilding. Personal Leadership is, at its root, about understanding and managing our own internal experience. Personal Leadership training is a powerful method to help us stay aware and inspired, regardless of the challenges that face us.
