The Role of the Body in Leadership
Event description
Leadership is often perceived as an intellectual pursuit, but in reality, our minds and bodies are inextricably linked.
When we connect with this truth, we find greater self-awareness and the ability to lead in complexity.
Join us for an enlightening webinar, where we will explore the possibility and transformative potential of embodied leadership. Participants will explore the ways our bodies offer an encyclopedia of lived wisdom to draw from and how they amplify our leadership, much more than our words.
This webinar aims to foster more integrative leadership by recognising the wisdom of the body as a potent resource for fostering aliveness, coherence, and resilience.
Join us as we embark on a journey towards more healthy, connected, and impactful leadership.
