Hello all! I wanted to let you know of a free workshop that is one of those few examples of getting far more than what you paid for.
On November 1st from 7-9 PM, the Strozzi Institute of CA is offering a free workshop here in DC metro area (Arlington, to be specific). The workshop is called “Navigating Change – A Somatic Approach.”
For those of you I have worked over the last few years, Strozzi Institute is where I have learned the practices we’ve used to develop leadership presence/effectiveness, to be more grounded and centered in chaos, and to better manage ourselves/our emotions to achieve our goals. Whether you are a sole practitioner, managing a large team/business, or in transition—these are crucial skills.
Strozzi Institute, based in Petaluma CA, is probably the best leadership training I have taken. I have taken many of their courses, I am certified in their techniques, and continue to study with them. These are not stereotypical anemic touchy-feely courses. They place a lot of emphasis on integrity—and on listening to what our body is telling us—as the most effective guides for making choices. Grounded in martial arts and meditation traditions, SI focuses on how to develop true leadership presence “from the inside out,” and emphasizes the whole self, not just cognitive abilities.
Mark Mooney will be leading this free workshop; he excels at introducing new people to this work! Mark consults across industries and teaches the entry level public courses, including at least one in DC annually. (He led the first two classes I attended at SI, starting me on this path.) And attending the ‘freebie’ is a great way to learn and get exposure to Strozzi without flying to CA or signing up for a 4-5 day course.
Registration is required, to manage the room size etc. I fully expect this to be a full course, so if you’re interested, register now at: http://www.strozziinstitute.com/workshops.

Hello all! Just a friendly reminder that if you are in the DC metro area on January 31, there will be a free two hour workshop in Reston offered by the Strozzi Institute. When they offered a similar seminar two years ago, it fully booked with a waiting list. There are still a few spots left, so if you’re interested, register now at: http://www.strozziinstitute.com/workshops
For more information on why I recommend this workshop, see my blog post from December.

I wanted to let you know of a free workshop that is one of those few examples of getting far more than what you paid for.
On January 31st from 7-9 PM, the Strozzi Institute of CA is offering a free two hour workshop here in DC metro area (Reston, to be specific). The workshop is called “Strozzi Somatics in Leadership & Coaching.”
For those of you I have worked with more recently, Strozzi Institute is where I have learned the practices we’ve used to develop leadership presence/effectiveness, to be more grounded and centered in chaos, and to better manage ourselves/our emotions to achieve our goals. Whether you are a sole practitioner, managing a large team/business, or in transition-these are crucial skills.
Strozzi Institute, based in Petaluma CA, is probably the best leadership training I have ever taken. I have taken many of their courses, got certified in their techniques and continue to study with them. These are not touchy feely BS courses. If we’ve talked about the book The Leadership Dojo, the author Richard Strozzi-Heckler is the founder of the Strozzi Institute. He’s a former marine, a black belt several times over in Aikido, and a PhD in Psychology. Richard has worked with senior military, corporate, non-profit/social justice leaders all over the world-again, no BS here.
Richard will be leading this free workshop-a very rare event, and a great way to learn and get exposure to Strozzi without flying to CA.
Registration is required, to manage the room size etc. I fully expect this to be a full course, so if you’re interested, register now at: http://www.strozziinstitute.com/workshops
