Exploring Self-Leadership

How to be in powerful self-leadership — no matter the context

A day of experiential exploration through relational exercises, group work and discussion of practical frameworks and models.

Saturday 12th April
10am – 4pm
Bonnington Center, Top Room
£40
Facilitated by Sandy Gee and Noor Al-Hashemi


Many of us have spent a lot of time in relational and transformation spaces: events, workshops, trainings, peer practice groups. These spaces often invite us into self-responsibility, self-care, and self-leadership, which is a great intention, but can also present quite a challenge. Despite our best efforts, we may find ourselves at the end of a workshop feeling overwhelmed, hurt, critical, disappointed, or with a vague sense of crossed or unclear boundaries. This workshop will offer a deeper dive into the subtleties of self-leadership, and an exploration of what might be holding us back, so that we can be in powerful self-leadership, no matter the context.

Our plan for the day is still unfolding, but some key themes we may explore include:

  • How disempowering frames and internalised patterns can hold us back
  • The importance of deeply trusting and listening to our experience, especially dysregulation cues, and letting them guide us
  • How feelings of frustration, criticism, and  judgement towards others can point us to our own leadership potential
  • How to speak up and take a stand at times we would normally keep quiet

Noor Al-Hashemi is drawn to the mysterious caves and deep-sea lagoons buried deep in the fabric of our beings. Devoted to cultivating the precision and humility needed to listen for the very subtle parts of our experience, to give life to them and allow them to move us.
