Can leadership be an integral part of one's spiritual practice? How can we hold our path of leadership and our path of spiritual development as complements to each other? We all have the capacity for leadership, situationally or positionally, and can learn to see this as an opportunity to continue learning and growing towards liberation.

This workshop is one session in the three-part series taught by Anushka Fernandopulle during the Contemplation by Design Summit. You are welocme to attend one or all three sessions. The other sessions are the iPause Guided Practice: Cultivating Qualities of Heart and Mind for Leadership on October 24th and the lecture titled The Path to Practice on October 25th.
