The Institute for Global Leadership Fall 2006 Courses
Reconciliation Leaders™ are practical idealists who facilitate reconciling environments for any challenge in any setting—family, community, organization, national or global. This leadership arises from the leader’s vocational calling, skill building, a broad world view, a simple and sustainable lifestyle, and a philosophy of life to be at peace in oneself and in service to others for a cooperative and compassionate global society.

The following competencies will be introduced: the rediscovery of awe and wonder in their daily life; self-awareness of their gifts and strengths; clarity of their own needs and agenda, as well as understanding the role and untapped potential of the unconscious; creating balance and wellness in their daily life; and eliminating the dichotomy of a work self and a true self.
