Are you ready to Level up your leadership?

From a Pathfinders’ Resilient Leadership experience:

• Effectively Lead Through Emotional Storms
• Dynamically Lead Through Fear and Change
• Be Adaptable in Stressful Situations
• Bring Resilient Leadership into Teams, Family or any Group

Let’s get curious!

Our starting point with any person or group is with our horses. Simply put, horse work is our assessment tool. While more traditional approaches can be valuable to how we understand ourselves and each other, few are so immediately transformative.

Our equine-assisted activities (non-riding) allow the horses to teach you and show you parts of your leadership that need more room to transform and expand.

This is an opportunity to get honest AND gentle feedback from your equine teachers and coaching and support from your human facilitator. What we offer is different from other leadership growth programs. No conference rooms. No powerpoint slides. No blah blah blah.

You will leave a Pathfinders’ Leadership Transformation experience with an expanded sense of leadership, immediately ready for you to bring into the world.

The World of Work and Leadership 

The world of work is undergoing a rapid and profound transformation due to globalization, digitalization, automation, artificial intelligence, climate change, social movements, and demographic shifts. These changes present both opportunities and challenges for leaders, who must adapt to the evolving needs and expectations of their customers, employees, partners, and stakeholders. To succeed in the future of work, leaders must possess certain key skills and competencies, such as resiliency, curiosity, collaboration, creativity, emotional intelligence, and vision. 

Resiliency involves responding quickly and effectively to changing situations, learning from feedback, and experimenting with new ideas and solutions. Collaboration requires working with diverse individuals and distributed teams, leveraging collective intelligence, and fostering a culture of trust and cooperation. Creativity involves generating and implementing innovative and original ideas, challenging assumptions, and embracing ambiguity and uncertainty. Emotional intelligence involves understanding and managing your own and others’ emotions, communicating empathetically, and building positive and authentic relationships. Lastly, vision involves articulating and inspiring a shared purpose, aligning actions with values, and anticipating and shaping the future.

Transformational Leadership Is Relational Leadership

Real leadership is about how you inspire, communicate, and navigate challenges. It is an ongoing process and requires continuous learning and development. By regularly assessing your competentcies and seeking feedback, you can continually grow and improve as a leader. 

At Horses & Pathfinders’ Equine Guided Leadership Development and Team Building, we work across all 4 dimensions of leadership, psychology, mindset, and business to help grow your leadership, teams and ultimately scale your endeavor and positive impact. You walk away with value: paradigm shifting, permanently impactful takeaways.

Why Horses?

As prey animals, horses possess exquisitely attuned emotional sensory systems and they are able to pick up on the ever-changing nuances of other mammals’ internal workings as they assess for health and safety. The cohesion of the herd is at the heart of the group’s surviving – and thriving.

They rely on a radical commitment to awareness and to an ever-present feedback system flowing through their herd. This unique sensing system allows the horses to read each other and their environment so they can detect danger and look for opportunities to rest in safety and be in harmony.

It also allows them to read us and to notice the places where we are blocked. Because so much of our innate power of leadership is trapped in our thoughts and often self-defeating scripts, our truest desires are just out of our reach.

It’s time to wake up your Leadership and more deeply experience your life.

You don’t need any experience with horses to gain valuable insights and make big changes through our work. All of our workshop activities are on the ground and completely adaptable to meet individual needs.

Consider a 360 degree performance-based, practical review from a horse – in the field and out of the box.

The horses are our starting point because they are always honest and magnetized to authentic relationships. In just moments of interacting with a horse, you will see your core leadership themes and stories emerge.

Consider the coach approach that emphasizes asking questions, active listening, interrupting old thinking patterns, and guiding you or your teams to develop their potential and achieve their goals.

Coaching will help you make immediate shifts and you will experience the freedom of a non-judgmental space to experiment with your Transformed Leadership. Receive top-notch coaching and facilitation to help you practice new skills and mindset shifts on the spot.
