Course Overview
Never before in the history of humankind, has the demand for a new kind of leadership been felt as much as it is today. In business, leaders carry the burden of responsibility for far more than just generating returns for shareholders. Similar responsibilities lie with leaders in other fields (for example, resource management, healthcare, education, and non-profits).
To navigate successfully through these turbulent and uncertain times, today’s leaders require an understanding and mastery of transformational leadership. This is characterized by a willingness to focus beyond the leader’s impact on the external, and reflect internally on humility, compassion, discernment, and a willingness to tap into something that is greater than themselves.
This course will provide both the understanding and practices to expand human consciousness to enable leaders to discover new aspects of themselves, thereby embracing the essence of transformational leadership.
