Power of Leadership Retreat

Dates Location
July 15 - July 19, 2012 Ft Ellis Ranch Cost And Registration

ARE YOU MANAGING YOURSELF 

Or...ARE YOUR EMOTIONS CONTROLLING YOU?
Do you know your source
of power and connections with others?
 

 

What kind of difference would it make to you, your company,
                  your team, or your family if you could:

  1. Engage the mental clarity and concentrated energy that leadership demands?
  2. Contribute to others in a way that inspires and motivates them?
  3. Manage your emotional upsets and reactions instead of being controlled by them?
  4. Assess, develop, and sustain your leadership competencies over time?
  5. Leverage your leadership to move people in a direction that increases bottom-line performance?
  6. Lead from a place of centered and connected influence?

"The fundamental task of leaders, we argue, is to prime good feeling in those they lead.  That occurs when a leader creates resonance--a reservoir of positivity that frees the best in people.  At its root, then, the primal job of leadership is emotional."

  

-Primal Leadership, by Daniel Goleman, Richard Boyatzis, Annie McKee
 


 The Power of Leadership is the second exciting program in Leadership Outfitters' three-part Leadership Development Series.  This 4-1/2 day retreat builds on the self-awareness and life changing progress you made in the first retreat, the Power of Choice. In the Power of Choice, you focus on discovering more of who you are when under stress and pressure, identifying the self-defeating behaviors of your Limited Self. 

 

This second retreat builds on that self-awareness and life changing progress.  In the Power of Leadership, you learn to identify the four parts of your Authentic Self, or your Core.   The Core is that part of you at your best, helping others to be their best.  It is the source of your creativity, purpose, and power, helping you connect to your natural instincts of focus, collaboration, and inspiration.  At the Power of Leadership, you learn how to do just that--lead from your Core.

 

Through a variety of experiential exercises, and with our herd of seven horses, you will be able to identify these four parts of your Core, your source of connection and the cornerstone of satisfaction and personal empowerment.  In achieving this, you will more clearly determine your purpose and contribution to others.  By creating a clear imagine of you at your most powerful and grounded self, you create a bridge to move out of your Limited Self and towards your Core in times of stress and pressure.

 

Horses will continue their role as our co-facilitators in this program.  We are taking our horse facilitated work further with new exercises that build on the feeling of power, connection and joy participants felt the first time they entered the round pen and worked with our horses.  These special co-facilitators help you identify what being in your Core feels like.  Partnering with the horses helps you learn to identify and own your Core in ways you never dreamed possible. 

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

  1. Review your Limited Self and how you have been able to shift out of it since identifying it.  This insight will enable you to literally draw a new "picture" of you.
  2. Define the four parts of your Core.
  3. Name your purpose, your Declaration of Grace.
  4. Use your emotions as information.
  5. Develop your emotional intelligence by identifying and managing the four competencies of EQ.
  6. Learn how to authentically communicate upsets with others.
  7. Identify your own Enemies of Learning.
  8. Develop a plan that sets up your life to sustain yourself.
  9. Identify over 50 ways to bring joy to your life.
  10. Create your own "story" of you as an effective, inspirational leader.
  11. Discover how to move from resentment and resignation into peace.
"Without a healthy dose of heart, a supposed 'leader' may manage--but he does not lead...No creature can fly with just one wing.  Gifted leadership occurs where heart and head--feeling and thought-- meet.  These are the two wings that allow a leader to soar."
