Laddership Pods are a space for project initiators to dive into the nuances of leading with inner transformation, learn about gift ecology design thinking, and cultivate new patterns of positive deviance that may emerge through the process.

For four weeks, we'll engage a profound "hands, head, heart" process with personal practices, peer learning, and design thinking. Hundreds have completed these circles, but in the backdrop of the pandemic, its questions have become dramatically relevant: How do we lead with emergence, well beyond emergencies? While laddering the new, how do we compassionately hospice the old? What design principles invite our systems to circulate love over fear? What is the place where "our deep gladness meets the world's deep hunger"? What are our practices to embrace uncertainty? How does our relationship to money affect our experience of wealth and value creation, and vice versa?

Our past Laddership speakers have included Pinterest co-founder Evan Sharp, Soul of Money pioneer Lynne Twist, Himalayan children's home founder Lobsang Phuntsok, psychology professor and B'ahai elder Dr. Michael Penn, actress and meditation teacher Stephanie Nash, management visionary V.R. Ferose, and more.

How it works: Every day, you'll get a prompt with 'head' content, a 'hands' practice, and 'heart' reflection question to engage. Everyone submits reflections daily, and then reads and comments on each other's submissions to build a dialogue. Our pod will begin with a group orientation call, and end with a closing call, with weekly group video calls to synthesize our learnings and sometimes bonus breakouts as well.

For more of a flavor, read about our pilot experiment last year with fellows from 25 countries: Alchemy of Uncertainty. 

If these questions resonate and you feel called to step up to radically innovate solutions that circulate love over fear, we invite you to join our learning journey.
