Leaders today face an urgent challenge: balancing immediate demands from board and shareholders with a long-term vision for sustainability and legacy.
This 3-hour to 4-day Executive Intensive bridges the gap between knowing and doing. It engages all your senses, unlocks innate knowledge, and provides transformative tools designed to inspire leaders to navigate complexity with clarity and courage. It addresses the most critical question of our time: How can we lead for both enterprise success and planetary health?
What We Offer
- Deep Reflection: Explore your personal and professional role in ecological stewardship.
- Bold Leadership: Ignite conscious leadership and purposeful action.
- Clarity and Confidence: Build the capacity to lead decisively in a dynamic, market-driven context.
Our Unique Approach
At the heart of this experience lies Constellation Work—a science-backed, experiential method that combines thinking with sensing and feeling. Typically, participants position peers in the physical space as elements of the challenges and dilemmas they face, such as: ‘competition, nature, shareholder expectations, personal values etc. This enables them to:
- Experience the Interconnections: Go beyond intellectual understanding to experience the complex relationships between parts of the system.
- Reveal Breakthrough Insights: Uncover solutions often hidden in traditional problem-solving approaches.
- Bridge the Knowing-Doing gap: Embody sustainable strategies and act with impact.
Â
Constellation work forms the foundation of our practice, enriched by dialogue, reconnection exercises, meditation and case studies, tailored to the time available.
Who Should Join?
- C-Suite Executives and Leaders: willing to sit with questions versus imposing answers.
- Change-makers: curious to redefine success by aligning profit with ecological and social impact.
- Decision-Makers: Ready to embrace innovative strategies.
Why Now?
As sustainable policies lose ground globally, the urgency for leaders to act has never been greater. This is your opportunity to shape a legacy of ecological, human, and organizational resilience.
