AFFIRMATION. BELONGING. THE CAPACITY TO CHANGE.

Sessions and retreats that build all three, so your team can fulfill its vision and deliver on its promise of innovation, transformation, and impact.

Half-day to multi-day, for leadership teams, staff, and boards in a moment of change. Every session leaves you with something you can use: shared agreements, a board strategy, a plan people believe in.

You're rolling out a new strategic plan and need the team behind it
Your organization grew fast and the culture hasn't caught up
Your board and leadership need to realign

IN PRACTICE

JEAN APPOLON EXPRESSIONS

From a mostly volunteer-run dance company to a community hub in Boston's Nubian Square.

Jean Appolon Expressions was growing from a mostly volunteer-run dance company to six full-time staff and 12 contractors while preparing to open its first dance center. Mohan guided the team through co-developing its working agreements, then worked with leadership on a board success plan and committee structure. Today JAE serves as a community hub in Boston's Nubian Square, which the Mayor has called the cultural hub of the city.

We very quickly saw clearer communication and a significant increase in mutual respect among the team.
Meg McGrath, Executive Director, Jean Appolon Expressions
He shared practical tools and moments of self-reflection that our leaders could use immediately, and carry forward as takeaways beyond the keynote.
John Valverde, CEO, YouthBuild
His message gave us a new lens through which to view our discussions.

THE HARMONIOUS LEADERSHIP RETREAT

FIND YOUR PEOPLE. GET BIG THINGS DONE.

A small founding cohort of leaders from across nonprofit, corporate, social entrepreneurship, and philanthropy. This is not a self-care getaway. It's where you find your people and tap the inspiration to get big things done, individually and together, inside practices built to help you feel and do your best. It's built to be catalytic: you leave with real community and real momentum toward your impact goals, whether you lead inside a large institution or you're building something of your own.

Expect it to be joyful, a little vulnerable, and genuinely fun.
