Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.
How do we embed our core values in our leadership vision and actions? How do our perspectives on human nature play a role in our professional decisions?
Join us for a free Flash Seminar on Rooting Leadership in Humanity.
This one-hour virtual Flash Seminar is chance to experience the Aspen method of text-based dialogue from the comfort of your home or office. Participants engage with a short reading as a jumping off point to explore fundamental questions about humanity and leadership; uncovering how your answers influence your personal and professional leadership decisions.
This Flash Seminar is chance to reconnect with your own leadership journey. All Aspen Leadership Seminars leverage a unique method of moderated, text-based dialogue that transforms leaders’ ability to understand their own values and achieve meaningful leadership growth.
Seminars are offered in a variety of formats and durations including in-person in Aspen, CO and virtually.
Every Aspen Leadership Seminar starts from a simple premise: the difficult decisions leaders make are moral, not technical. Leaders must understand the values that animate their decisions.
The Seminars department offer dynamic, challenging environments where you learn to leverage the values that drive your leadership and become a better leader.
