Every leader is viewed through the lens of power. People constantly interpret how you use it — too much, too little, too soon, too late. Leadership isn’t just about strategy or vision; it’s about how you hold yourself when authority is challenged, when anxiety is high, and when the dynamics around you get messy.
This six-week Circle is where executives can explore the inner game of power: the capacity to stay grounded under pressure, to direct your focus where it’s most needed, to act with clarity and intention, and to project presence in ways that earn trust and credibility.
Over six sessions, we’ll examine:
How anxiety shapes authority and influence in subtle but powerful ways
The costs of overusing, underusing, or misusing power — and how to recalibrate
What it takes to steady yourself and lead decisively in uncertain systems
How to strengthen Personal Power — the foundation of credibility, trust, and impact
This is a rare chance to strip leadership down to its essentials, wrestle with the tensions of authority and power alongside peers who face the same pressures, and leave with sharper awareness and greater capacity to lead with humanity when it matters most.
These circles are not for everyone — they’re for executives willing to engage at depth, with candor and courage. Joining means stepping into a space where truth, power, and responsibility can be explored without pretense — and where the way you lead, and the impact you make, can shift.
Participation is by invitation or application.
