Soulful Leadership: Free Workshop

'We need activated citizens with the courage to create a politics worthy of the human spirit.’ - Parker J Palmer

What does ‘a politics worthy of the human spirit’ mean to you? And what would it look like for you to embody it?

Amidst the manifold global crisis, leadership is more important than ever. And as we begin to appreciate the complex interdependence of everything, the question is not just about how to elect or create better leaders, but about how to create leadership for the world, together.

As the source of our creativity and our capacity to transform ourselves and the world, the soul is a vital & often missing dimension of leadership. As environmental lawyer and advocate Gus Speth famously said:  

"I used to think that the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and climate change. I thought that 30yrs of good science could address these problems. I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed and apathy, and to deal with these, we need a cultural and spiritual transformation and we scientists don’t know how to do that." 

In this session we will explore leadership from an existential perspective, enquiring into what it means to be human, and from there, what it means to serve humanity’s evolution. 

…………………………………

What to expect:

• Enquiry questions, discussion and sharing in breakout rooms to help you connect to what leadership and the soul mean to you.
• A short talk on Soulful Leadership with reference to multiple psycho-spiritual models and materials
• Meditation, visualisation and poetic evocation to stir your soul and awaken your authentic desire.

This workshop will offer a meaningful introduction to the concept of soulful leadership. The next intimate three month coaching journey designed to call forth the powerful, soulful leader inside you starts on 22 Sept. Register before 1 June for Early Bird pricing.

The Call

The way we are being ‘led’ is missing a vital dimension - attendance to and appreciation for core the human values of truth, beauty, freedom & love. For, if we are not being led towards that which is most sacred, most meaningful, most deep & abiding in life, then we are being led astray. 

Any leadership that perpetuates paradigms of division, domination and control, is leading us astray… 

When the sanctity of life is being violated, true leadership involves saying a firm and resounding NO to that which seeks to extract, exploit, violate, dominate or manipulate life. (Both in the world and inside ourselves.) And saying an emphatic and resounding YES to possibility, creativity, imagination, joy, beauty and the sacred. (Both in the world and inside ourselves.)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I got so much out of this course, it was filled with wisdom, from frameworks from psychosynthesis which were illuminating, to self-inquiry prompts, to group discussions, to homework exercises and links to external content, to Bonny's ever spot-on reflections on our sharings… The content was excellent, thought-provoking, challenging yet uplifting... I finished it with a feeling of hope for the future and a sense of courageousness for my unique path, in making a positive dent in the world." - Soulful Leadership Course Participant.
