About

WHO WE ARE.
who we are.
The Emerging Leaders Project offers transformational leadership development programs to support individuals and organizations in discerning and developing the skills necessary to lead in an era of accelerating complexity and disruption.
We “future proof” emerging leaders- and purpose-driven leaders of any generation- by offering powerful tools & training to equip, inspire and transform how we lead.
The results are an increased capacity to:
- Adapt
- Collaborate
- Experience connection- even joy
- Contextualize this global moment
- Articulate challenges and opportunities
- Sense the marketplace, pivot and lead where necessary
- Become generators of sustainable, creative solutions in any context

You are here.
What is a leader?
A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for finding the potential in people and processes, and has the courage to develop that potential.
Not dependent on position or education or age, a leader is someone willing to take wise risks.
​
You recognize that the outer work alone is not enough: social transformation must be fueled by a shift within.
You also recognize that the inner work alone is not enough: values & intentions must find expression through work in the world.
Our moment.
These are truly awe-some times.
​
What do we mean by the Great Transition?
We face unprecedented possibilities for breakthrough and breakdown:
-
Environmental- climate change, natural disasters, population growth, overconsumption, clean water...
-
Cultural- political polarization, urbanization, social movements like #MeToo and Black Lives matter...
-
Technological- AI/ML, nanotech, blockchain, genetic engineering, space tourism...
The world to come will be vastly different from the world we have known.
Increased disruption and complexity are guaranteed.
The outcomes are not.
​
And it's up to us to steer the process.
