Leading today is tough. Expectations are higher and the risks are greater.

Adaptive Leadership is a Harvard-based model designed to create a region-wide common good. It helps people, organizations, and communities adapt and thrive, by dissecting dysfunction- using conflict as a guide to finding long-term solutions. I'm graduate of Leadership Eastside's Community Leadership Academy, at Saybrook University, (2017) and am coaching the teams for a second year. |

It is a key facilitation and training tool used in the courts, workplace, and communities. |

Linguistic and logical-mathematical modalities are most valued in schools and US American dominant culture. More |
