Individual Tutorials, Courses and Events:
-
Visioning Your Life Path: Is this the time for your vision to emerge for your life? In this individual tutorial, you can access your vision and special gifts. Celebrate your ability to create, to love and to nurture.
-
Writing a Personal Mission Statement: Individual work, scheduled at participants’ convenience. An individualized process and framework offered for emerging and seasoned leaders to become aware of core gifts and talents and form a one-sentence mission statement. Mission statements help leaders focus and become more effective as well as articulate your focus on how to make a difference in the world. A well thought-out mission statement is protection, in a sense, against obstacles and self-defeating behavior-- because of the confidence and strength that comes from owning and trusting a strong sense of purpose.
