What to expect going on this experience:
Let nature be your guide. Embark on a journey through Kruger’s diverse biomes and abundant wildlife across three distinct locations. Immerse yourself in the heart of the bush. Prepare to reflect on your own leadership journey, evolving towards a more life-centric approach. Each day of our immersion is meticulously crafted to harmonise with the local ecosystem, allowing ample space for exploration, inspiration, individual and group reflection, and immersion in nature.
You will leave with a renewed sense of purpose, a deeper connection to the natural world, and a fresh perspective on your leadership and impact.
Conscious leadership is something that is not just to be cognitively understood but also experienced and embodied – which is why we have chosen this specific format as it is the most effective learning environment. It is not about pushing harder or doing more - it’s about leading with awareness, intention, and alignment.
Our immersive experience will empower you to:
Discover the Essence of Conscious Leadership: Explore the 12 foundational principles of conscious leadership, rooted in the wisdom of nature and living systems. Understand how these principles can elevate your leadership and business practices.
Learn from Nature and Local Ecosystems: Immerse yourself in the rich natural and social ecosystems of Kruger. Gain unique insights from local experts with extensive experience in the region. Understand keystone species, biomes, and their interconnections.
Adopt a Systems Perspective: Shift your perspective to view your organisation as part of a larger, interconnected system. Reimagine your business model, and explore how your organisation can add value to and strengthen the systems it touches.
Cultivate Self-Awareness and Intelligences: Deepen your self-awareness by unraveling entrenched mental models and accessing the full spectrum of your intelligences - mind, emotions, intuition, and body. Break through personal and professional barriers.
Redefine Your Leadership Role: Reflect on your current leadership approach and envision your future impact. Explore how your leadership can evolve to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world while leaving a meaningful legacy.
Embrace Tension as a Catalyst for Growth: Gracefully navigating the dynamic interplay between self and system, connection and autonomy. Understand and develop the resilience to embrace tension and complexity, mastering the art of navigating dynamic environments.
Create Learning Organisations. Support the transition from a mindset of control and management to one of sensing and responding in leadership, fostering autonomy, development, performance, resilience and innovation.
With a small group setting limited to just 8 guests, you'll enjoy an intimate atmosphere conducive to deep learning and connection. English will be the language of communication.
Don’t miss the opportunity to join a group of curious leaders and entrepreneurs!
“This wilderness experience was truly transformative. I’ve learned to appreciate the wisdom within me, rather than seeking answers outside myself. The indirect, subtle approach of the facilitators was powerful, allowing me to discover my own truths. And there was also enough structure to define my leadership path forward. My connection with the natural world has deepened - it feels personal now. It opened a new door, helping me feel at peace while igniting excitement for what lies ahead. I’ll forever treasure the passion, perspectives, and experience of all facilitators who guided this journey. I would wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone seeking clarity, connection, and levelling up their leadership."
– Gabriela Murillo, Director, Canada
