Upcoming Online course – Adaptive Leadership through Integral Awareness

Our world faces many problems and complexities including peacebuilding, climate change, sustainable resource management and social-cultural unrest. Today’s leader must adapt to these by integrating a holistic integral approach, which accounts for both external factors (empirical data, systems analysis) and internal factors (individual, collective and cultural).
This course accelerates your journey towards integral awareness as it enhances your adaptive leadership capacity and promotes powerful change in your personal and professional lives. This is a practice- oriented course in which participants learn the principles of designing and applying integrally informed problem-solving interventions, policies, and programs.

Combining mini-lectures and videos, suggested readings, and participatory group exercises, we dialogue and support each other’s emergence of integral awareness and apply it to a professional case-study situation.
