24th Annual Global Conference: Washington DC 2022

The 24th Annual International Leadership Association Global Conference theme invited an inquiry into how wisdom might catalyze transformation in global systems contributing to environmental, social, economic, and political crises.  Wisdom offers us exciting possibilities to see opportunities in crises, paths forward in complex systems and unpredictable dynamics, and wholeness in times of fracturing. Wisdom is creative inner work with outward manifestations that allow possibilities for systems flourishing. Wisdom is deep listening, or what some call ‘with-nessing’ in community. Wisdom is more than intellect and cognition—it is a way of being and relating to the world and to oneself that heals, brings joy, and offers compassion and dignity to all.
