Leading the Change We Want to See in the World

This advanced 9-month program is a hands-on, skill based training devoted to helping students develop leadership skills to further sustainable and regenerative practices in their personal and professional lives. Through authentic experience with the natural world, participants graduate with the embodied knowledge of how to design powerful communities, regenerate ecosystems and facilitate positive community change.

Weaving together the teachings of Regenerative Design, Nature Awareness, 8 Shields Cultural Mentoring and the Ecology of Leadership, the RDNA program offers a comprehensive exploration of where we came from, where we are now and where we are going. With an emphasis on building meaningful relationships with the earth, our communities and ourselves, we move into an understanding of our role within the community as an integral part of the natural world.

Introduction

As we face the challenges of our changing world, many people are searching for avenues to make a difference - to play a part in transforming our families, communities, and the greater world in which we live. Each one of us has the potential to bring forth our gifts, develop the tools we need to make a difference, and live up to our own leadership potential so we can be of service.

Whether you have prior experience and training, or if have recently felt called to step onto a path of leadership for the first time, this program provides a unique opportunity to deeply explore who you are, who you wish to be, and how you will contribute to others. You will articulate your vision, get in deeper touch with your gifts and develop new tools, routines, mindsets and skills to be more effective in manifesting what you see for yourself and the world.
