We are excited to offer a new program for our HLA Professor Cohort Graduates! Welcoming our graduates to practice a new way of “Being”, by practicing curiosity through our Black Belt Cohort Program.
The Black Belt program of the Humanistic Leadership Academy is a guided inquiry designed to unveil your true potential and discover your abilities as a humanistic leader This program includes six weekly virtual sessions.
A set of dialogues offer a unique insight into the ontological nature of Mastery and its benefits. This will lead to a deep understanding of ‘Mastery as a way of being’™. These conversations begin to examine what this type of mastery could offer you, the education sector and your community.
Our primary goal is to transform business and education and prepare humanistic leaders for the present and future. The program strives to cultivate each participant’s identity as a Humanistic Leader, promoting an innovative approach to education through a journey of guided discovery with their students.
We aim to explore the possibility: Could our very existence and way of being serve to create a world that works for all of humanity?
