NATURAL LEADERSHIP
True leaders are developed from the inside-out. Real leaders are always ‘originals’, averse from copying behaviour. That’s the essence: They operate from their own model, from their inner strength; following their internal compass and develop their own style. One that suits them and works for them, naturally. They take decisions based on their own observations, their own experiences, their own intuition, their own nature. They lead from their own spirit. Native American leadership philosophy is based on this principle, that true natural leadership is discovered from within.
True leaders are balanced individuals who are connected and grounded. Their clear vision is derived from being in tune with themselves and their environment. Natural Leadership can be developed through finding inner balance and inner peace, through soul searching and alignment with your own spirit.
PERSONAL LEADERSHIP JOURNEY
This Leadership Journey will take you to a culture and an environment that provide the ideal ingredients for your journey towards true natural leadership.
Your main guides on this journey are a clan of Native Americans from the Ojibwa tribe, descendants from the Anishnaabe (first people), the oldest inhabitants of the North American continent. The Ojibwa are known as peace keepers and are the keepers of the sacred fire. Their teachings go back as far as 20,000 years and the essence of these teachings still very much apply today. In our so-called ‘connected world’ we are becoming more and more disconnected. Before we can truly connect to others we must first connect with ourselves.
To connect to ourselves we have to be connected to nature. The journey will take you back to basics, back to nature, to experience the principles of the chain of life and our role within this chain.
YOUR JOURNEY
Every Personal Leadership Journey is an organic process between participants and guides and therefore no two journeys are ever the same. We adhere to the Native American belief that there is no line that separates a teacher (guide) from a student (participant). We work with an outline program which always starts with nature, with grounding of the individual and using the collective wisdom.
Coming from the fast-pace-environment we live in, the first thing we need to do is to re-wind and re-connect. Working physically with the elements is an integral part of this grounding. From here we will explore both our physical and non-physical environment, expanding the journey we are on. Through a framework of hikes, outdoor activities and gatherings we create a space in which our quests and paths become more tangible, both individually and collectively. As these processes always take place in both the physical and the non-physical reality, our Native guides are there to relate to and translate the non-physical. The various down-to-earth ceremonies woven through the program allow individuals to raise their awareness, making their quest and path more apparent and real.
To connect to ourselves we have to be connected to nature. The journey will take you back to basics, back to nature, to experience the principles of the chain of life and our role within this chain.
