Improvising What We Can't Improvise One of the most forgotten parts of leadership development is getting to know oneself. Ultimately, we can't improvise who we are at our core — nor do we want to, as this is where our truest strengths reside. Theatre activities give us a new point of entry into ourselves, reconnecting us to our core intelligence. In this workshop we will use the natural elements as a springboard for this exploration. Be warned: this is a lot more potent than you may think. You will gain insights into how to deepen relationships, how to rejuvenate in the midst of challenges, and how to embody more mature leadership. |

Equine Guided Leadership Education Working with horses is a wonderful way to uncover leadership qualities. Horses are driven by herd instinct and are thereby keenly tuned into the presence of a leader. They are great co-facilitators for leadership insight and development as they only willingly follow those attempting to lead who consistently show up as leaders. In this innovative workshop, you'll learn skills for building trust, communicating, and bringing your physical, intellectual, social and emotional intelligences along for the ride. The work is done on the ground, and no previous experience with horses is required. |

Emotional Intelligence Why emotional intelligence is more important than IQ in business and how to develop it. Daniel Goleman reports from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience and offers startling new insight into our two minds–the rational and the emotional-and how they together shape our destiny. The best news: unlike IQ, emotional literacy can be developed. |

Firms of Endearment:
How World-Class Companies Profit from Passion and Purpose The authors illustrate how companies grounded in delivering emotional and social value, in addition to profits, are transforming the very soul of capitalism. Using the SPICE model of stakeholder concerns — Society, Partners, Investors, Customers and Employees — they demonstrate how this new breed of organization is the wave of the future. (Did we mention that they are among the most successful companies these days and that their success is bound to be sustainable?) |

Good to Great: Why
Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't How can good organizations be turned into ones that produce great, sustained results? Jim Collins discloses the type of leadership required to achieve greatness, a leadership beyond the traditional ego-drive we often associate with strong leaders. Collins' guidance and insights are presented in an unforgettable style, (he coined the term "big, hairy, audacious goal"), as he draws readers into a compelling conversation on how to become great leaders in great organizations. |

How the Way We Talk
Can Change the Way We Work: Seven Languages for Transformation Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey skillfully introduce a simple approach to human complexity, along with ways to become more effective and fulfilled both on an individual and organizational level. Key to their work is an exploration of why people struggle to follow through on their desires for change, even when it most appears as though this is their goal. Describing this "immunity to change," Kegan and Lahey explain how this apparent contradiction is often a result of competing commitments, and how we can break through this dynamic to a more effective and satisfying way of being in the world. |

Spiral Dynamics Spiral Dynamics is a powerful evolutionary model that proposes a way of transforming ourselves, and in the process, increasing our ability to affect transformation for others. Grounded in the belief that cultural ways of being in the world (or "memes") shape and are shaped by the dictates of the social and physical environment, the Spiral Dynamics theory gives tools for not only meeting people where they are at, but also provides an inspirational road map for us all to aspire to greater levels of development. |

A Theory of Everything:
An Integral Vision for Business, Politics, Science and Spirituality Few people have contributed more to the exploration of the modern mind and spiritual evolution than Ken Wilbur. His work is invaluable in business, social, personal and interpersonal settings. A cornerstone of Wilbur's methodology is his groundbreaking Integral Theory. This book is an excellent introduction to the theory, and a perfect jumping-off point into the rest of Wilbur's work. |

The Tipping Point:
How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference What triggers new trends? Malcolm Gladwell reveals surprising evidence on how to make large-scale societal change happen in business, sociological, and policy-making arenas. Drawing upon his research and understanding of how epidemics spread, he branches out beyond medical epidemiology, to consider the powerful potential of positive and quick-acting "social epidemics." He describes the book as an "intellectual adventure story," and makes a fascinating case for understanding change in a whole new way. |

The Wisdom of the
Enneagram The Enneagram is a powerful personality typology with its roots in Sufi wisdom. Based on the premise that we all possess a cluster of personality tendencies that influence our behavior (and of which we are often unaware), the Enneagram provides a penetrating and very humane way of helping us recognize and detach from what holds us back. Riso and Hudson's work with the Enneagram is compassionate and full of spiritual insights on how to learn from our automatic tendencies, so that we can develop ourselves in the direction of our most profound spiritual gifts. |
