Welcome!

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to take part in our three day training in the Art of Hosting and Harvesting Conversations that Matter. The training will take place at Himmelbjerggården near Silkeborg, Denmark from Thursday 3 April to Saturday 5 April, 2025.
The world we live in calls for a different kind of leadership… A kind of leadership that awakens the leader in each and every one of us and our innate drive and desire to contribute to positive change for our communities, organisations and society at large. Many of us can see that the status quo is not a viable option if we are aiming for a thriving and sustainable planet, and it takes courage and trust to transcend the feeling of deep despair, to see that a more beautiful world is possible. We invite you to join us! |
