WHOLEHEARTED LEADERSHIP COHORTS

Yes!

Leaders who are willing to travel to the beautiful state of Oregon for the four in-person retreats have enjoyed our cohorts. Note that only our Executive and Helper’s two-year cohorts include the overnight lodging.

We would want nothing more for emerging leaders (generally mid 20s and 30s) to get their baggage down to carry-on size before they accept the larger responsibilities. Many high-capacity leaders are given positions of leadership well before they are ready for the mantel. Now is the time to join one of our cohorts and prepare the way for a life of integrity where you can learn from a range of expertises, ages, and cultures.

Many seasoned leaders (ages 40+) feel like they have been there and done that. However, less than 70% of leaders finish well because of the on-going demand and isolation of leadership. The next generation needs you to continue to do your work to align your values and your actions. Learning from a diverse group of leaders (expertise, gender, ages, and cultures), you will have a space to be seen, heard, known, and then refresh your vision for what’s to come. As one seasoned pastor said, “This was the experience I never knew I needed.”

We define a leader as anyone with a following. If you are a parent or a CEO of a fortune 500 company, you are a leader! These cohorts are for those at the top of their org chart or soon to be, as well as founders, visionaries, entrepreneurs, social influencers and more. If you are a high-capacity leader with or without a title in this season, apply to the appropriate cohort and see what happens! We trust that if you are drawn to this experience, we have something to offer you and those you lead.

Most leadership books, cohorts, and coaching revolves around performance development. Though we are all about helping you grow skills and provide practical tools, these cohorts are focused on who you are as a person. Most leaders are missed by those they lead - seen as the “go-to-gal or guy” and very few have been given a chance to fully be seen, known, and unravel the layers of their story, wiring, and unhealthy coping strategies (we all have them!) We have a unique blend of trauma-informed clinical, biblical, and relational wisdom that infuses these cohort. And… our retreats are in the beautiful state of Oregon. It’s almost like heaven.

Yes! We have generous partners who see the value of healthy and wholehearted leaders and provide partial scholarships to a limited number of cohort participants each year. We know that many times finances can keep non-profit and ministry leaders from getting the coaching and professional support they need, which sadly causes a ripple effect of damage to those they serve. Though Living Wholehearted is a for-profit entity, we partner with the National Association for Family Ministries, who offers supporters a chance to sponsor a leader like you with a tax-deductible donation! In ideal situations, leaders ask someone who already believes in their leadership and mission to support them through one of our cohorts or retreats. However, for those who do not have access to such a network, we have built amazing partnerships with those who see the eternal impact of helping leaders live and lead with integrity. Apply and note that a scholarship is needed.
