For thousands of years, women have gathered in circles to discuss the key issues in their lives. Today, women's circles provide opportunities for mutual support to make personal and social change.
This workshop offers an opportunity to learn powerful strategies for leading from our feminine core. It is for women of any age whose work or volunteer activities require them to exercise leadership, and for women who want to develop leadership skills.
"As women have increasingly taken on leadership roles in every facet of life, the old command-and-control leadership model is giving way to a new empowerment model," says Carla Goldstein. "In family, business, religion, and politics-women are transforming how we address human needs by sharing power, building bridges across divides, and finding ways to unlock individual and group potential in creative and life-affirming ways." Through lecture, group discussion, writing, reflection, and play, we explore how to build effective collaborations, create allies, and work in horizontal teams. We also learn how to bring about transformative engagement by forging new social visions that can be realized through an empowerment model of leadership.
Carla Goldstein is also teaching Introduction to Spiritual Activism (with Bonnie Singman), July 25-27, and is part of Women & Courage, September 12-14.
Carla Goldstein, JD, is director of the Women's Institute at Omega and director of external affairs for Omega. She is an activist, teacher, and lawyer with 20 years' experience in public interest advocacy, and writes the monthly column Spiritual Activism for Feminist.com |
