OFFERED:  April - December, 2006 (see details below) from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm.
LOCATION: Commonweal Garden, Bolinas, CA
Instructor: James Stark and Christopher Kuntzsch

As we all face the challenges confronting the living earth, deep inside each of us is a dream of how we could make a difference in the world. This program is designed to creatively articulate that dream, ignite the fire and to support you in becoming an unstoppable leader in your life, your family, community and the world.

During this 8-month adventure together, we will explore creating a vibrant personal leadership ecology for ourselves – a set of practices, mindsets, habits, and skills that will nurture and support you as a visionary and leader. We will be drawing upon the wisdom of our ancestors and the people in our contemporary world who through their leadership have brought beauty, justice and love into our lives.

What we have learned is that leadership is a practice; a way of being, a way of thinking, and that every one of us is capable of living a life as a leader and a life that we love. The only obstacle to walking in the footsteps of your personal leadership mentors is you. You get to choose.

During the program we will be exploring and composting old patterns that hold you back from who you know yourself to be and creating new patterns that will support the unfolding of your greatness and your inherent capacity to make a difference.

An integral part of the program is the opportunity for you to choose and implement a personal project that will enable you to deeply root and refine your new leadership skills.

This program is designed for those of you who are increasingly hearing a call to step forward as leaders, to refine your existing leadership skills or to simply spend 8 months in a leadership circle rekindling your fire.


Alumni Leadership Circle:
Upon graduation from the program, you will assume a seat at the table of an alumni leadership circle that will be created during the program. This leadership round-table will be dedicated to supporting alumni in continuing to manifest their dreams after the conclusion of the workshop series.  The Circle will provide you with accountability, and opportunities to further develop your leadership skills and to support others in manifesting their visions.

We warmly invite you to join us in this adventure.
