Leading Your Life

About the Program

Leading Your Life (LYL) is a seminar-based program designed to help adults in the mid and late-career transition to professional activities and roles for which there is deep meaning and purpose. (3rd Installment of the Life Mastery and Transformation Program) In the mid-career, there is often a reexamination of one’s life and career. From this examination, one is driven to find one’s calling and area of true leadership. This program continues the development toward clarifying one’s authentic purpose and promoting one’s ability to take on greater responsibility and leadership.
