You can experience personal, positive growth and and also develop new ways to contribute your talents to help transform the world. Emphasis is placed on harnessing the energy of the group to support the vision and aspirations of each participant.
If I have already taken Integral Leadership, what is the case for taking it again?
The Integral Leadership program reinforces core practices and principles while introducing new material, tools and techniques to cultivate integral development and leadership impact. As with all practices, the practitioner goes deeper. There is an infinite depth of learning to discover about yourself, your capacities and ways to offer your leadership in the world. The more you practice, the greater your growth. You can never step into the same stream twice. In this program, the focus is on learning about yourself, all dimensions, both inner and outer. As you are called to contribute to the world, you are also called toward a fuller realization of your innate potential.
What makes the Integral Leadership Program different from other transformational or leadership programs?
The ITP Integral Leadership program differs from other development programs in its emphasis on long-term, daily practice as the path to the realization of greater capacities through integration of body, mind, heart and soul. ITP practitioners believe that people perform most effectively and experience greater well being when all aspects of the self are working harmoniously. The sessions of the Integral Leadership program incorporate affirmations to activate the mind, gentle body-based exercises to harness the wisdom of the body, peaceful communication techniques to awaken the heart and emphasis on the power of the community to support practitioners’ growth and deeper connection to the world.
“Could it be that the human heart and the world’s heart are one in their self-surpassing? We believe that they are. As we grow in love and strength, we become vehicles for the world’s growth. We bring new sustenance to our families, new joy to our friends, new light to our places of work.”
- George Leonard & Michael Murphy, ITP founders
