Abundance and Radical-Move Leadership for Turbulent Times: A CNE Workshop

Led by Laura Freebairn-Smith, Partner at Organizational Performance Group (OPG)

Workshop description: The most successful leaders have many things in common – strategic thinking, self-awareness, and transparency, to name a few qualities. However, the idea of an abundance leadership mentality – or people who believe in seeing the world as resource sufficient and view power as shareable – is a thought model that more and more successful leaders are adopting today.

As we find ourselves in a time of unprecedented crises, there is also an opportunity for us all to examine the underlying paradigms and standard operating procedures that are hurting us as a planet and species. It is a time that calls for radical-move leadership. Radical-move leaders ask, “How can I get the positive sides of a crisis to stick?” They look for opportunities to model solutions to significant social and environmental challenges such as income and education inequality, racial injustice, and our carbon footprint.

The leaders in this workshop will come away with…

• Encouragement to take risks and make bold decisions on behalf of their organizations
• An understanding of how to both boldly change their organization and incrementally make bold changes
• A self-awareness of their mental models that drive their leadership style

Who should participate: Leaders of organizations or teams
