We’re in the wilderness, on the mountain, on the plains, in the midst of a storm, with rain or snow. How are the bearings of my compass? How well can I hold on to my course? How stable am I on a slippery track? How much adversity can I deal with? When my legs burn, my breath screams? I have said yes and have the ambition to make it! But how robust and resilient am I? Will/do/can I stand the heat of the climb, the wetness of pouring rain!

Core to this program is the assumption that tomorrows’ successful leaders, those who master the dynamics of the coming decade, will stand out by a unique trait: they master themselves. Whatever the storm outside, these leaders can keep their bearings for delivering results because inside they feel confident and at ease to handle the reality around them. They are robust and resilient. Ready to face whatever is to be faced out there.

They feel ready to “stay on track in the midst of the storm”.

Preparing yourself as leader for the coming decade, needs you to answer the following question, which is also the objective of this leadership program:

“How can I as human being and in my role as leader grow the equanimity, robustness, and resilience in myself, to be able to live the disrupting realities of the coming decade?”

You’re invited to join us on an outdoor track in remote and rewarding territory. To go inside and outside. Our steps will lead us into the Scottish/Icelandic/Swedish wilderness. Through valleys, over mountains, following animal tracks, over shitty ground, rocky sort-of-paths, ridges with steep sides. The track will be as real as it will be metaphorical for every day life. And we will be talking whilst walking.

Together we will reflect upon ourselves, on who each of us is, or -better said- who we have become. We will support each other in asking ourselves profound questions. Why do I (not) do what I (not want to) do? How have I become who I am today? Which are critical life-experiences? How do they impact me? Do I still like who I am? On what yes, on what not? What is authentic and what is conditioning? How does it all show in my work-life, my private-life? In the ambition I have. The inspiration I seek. The path I take. All geared to reset my bearings and grow my inner comfort.

Who are we? Who are your fellow participants? What are requirements? What gear do you need?
