“Leaders and their teams must develop and maintain the same high levels of psychological expertise and experience that they have in such areas as finance, research and development, marketing, manufacturing, distribution, and sales. [Levinson's] critical analyses have demonstrated repeatedly that the roots of poor decisions, inept strategies, and miserable execution in business can nearly always be traced to undiagnosed or poorly managed psychological processes or conflicts.”
- Richard R Kilburg & Harry Levinson, Consulting Psychology Journal, 2008
The Institute for Inspired Leadership provides executives and professionals with the expertise needed to achieve the bottom line through dynamic leadership.
Offering a unique approach to leadership, the Institute blends the best of today’s management and systems thinking with the latest psychological theories and nondenominational spiritual writings.
Participants of the Institute learn to critically examine and reflect on the core issues driving organizational culture today. Working on current, relevant issues from the participants’ life, the Institute incorporates proven adult learning theories so that each participant takes away deeper insights, answers, and a plan for change.
The Institute teaches individuals how to use past and present experiences to better understand their leadership strengths and vulnerabilities, refine their ability to make a conscious impact, and to improve overall effectiveness.
The teachings at the Institute have no learning expiration date; unlike other trainings which can have a short shelf life. At the Institute you learn things that you will use daily – in your work life and in your home life. The Institute curriculum consists of content material historically only found in better graduate business programs. At the Institute, we add the dimension of spirituality (or meaning) to enhance your educational experience and increase your learning agility. The dual benefit of this type of education is that you walk away from it a better leader and a better person.
