THE ART OF GIFTED LEADERSHIP COURSE
with Jennifer Harvey Sallin
COURSE OVERVIEW
This 6-month course is a combination personal and professional development course for gifted adults in positions of leadership. It is an ideal professional development program for gifted leaders who want to consciously integrate their holistic gifted traits and needs into their leadership development and roles, to tap into their full gifted potential, and to learn sustainable, authentic and self-compassionate ways to employ their integrated gifted energies to make a positive difference in the world.
Through study modules, homework, and live group discussions once a month, participants are invited and guided to dive deep into their personal and leadership processes and identities, considering their giftedness profile, energies, values, and personal and professional needs. We consider our leadership in a systemic context, where our leadership takes place: in our current global social, political, and environmental reality. The course content as well as our group discussions serve to cultivate personal and collective insight, transformation, and emergent possibilities for holistic, authentic and sustainable leadership in our complex world.
Specific module and discussion themes include:
- understanding your leadership values, vision and mission
- understanding how your unique giftedness profile and expression affects and informs who you are as a leader
- finding the most authentic and effective use of your resources, gifts and influence in leading, advocacy and change-making
- navigating relational and leadership challenges in a polarized social and professional context
- building resilience and overcoming obstacles during periods of sustained personal and professional challenge
- leading through self-care, developing a personal and professional philosophy of conscious technology use, and (re)connecting with your true natures
- gifted-specific challenges and solutions to courageous, wise, determined and balanced leadership and engagement in the world
