What is Relational Leadership? (or, how I became less of an asshole); and more Developmental Circling intros

December 21, 2020 By marc Leave a Comment

New posts from my blog

I wrote a two-part series on Relationship Leadership, including my own story and many very humbling and embarrassing times:

  • What is Relational Leadership? (some embarrassing reveals), and
  • Relational Leadership, Part 2: How I learned to be less of an asshole.

I hope you enjoy. If so, please comment and/or subscribe my author blog!

Donation-based Introductions to Developmental Circling continue…

We had a lovely time last Sunday at our Introduction to Developmental Circling (DC), and we have now one private group almost ready to go! I have been very impressed with the caliber of people who are signing up.

We are planning another DC introduction this coming Sunday Dec. 27 at 2pm EST. Please reserve your spot at EventBrite. Events are now by donation.

PS: I won’t be sending all my events to this list going forward. You can check the (awesome) A/R Facilitator’s Calendar for events (mine and others), like our Facebook group, or join the Asheville meetup where I will announce all events.
