Emergence: A Land-Based Leadership Retreat


Emergence is a nature-based leadership intensive designed for experienced leaders who want to strengthen their ability to navigate complexity, uncertainty, and organizational change. Unlike traditional leadership training, this immersive retreat deepens your capacity to lead with clarity, courage, and grounded confidence.

Through land-based learning, Indigenous perspectives, and reflective practice, you will expand how you sense, interpret, and respond to the challenges of modern leadership.
