![]() This session offers specific, immediately usable tools for stilling the inner turbulence and reclaiming lost energy. They need help and don’t know where to start. And from our experience most high achievers are either inexperienced or clueless on how to navigate their emotional paralysis, and lead with courage and clarity. They are issues of the heart, psyche, and spirit. One leader describes his blur of emotions as “an annoying, low-grade hum that’s always present in my head.” These unexpressed emotions drain energy, distort thinking, and blunt the innovation and decisiveness required to lead during troubled times. The majority of leaders we’ve spoken with and coached over the last decade are carrying a blend of anxiety, embarrassment, resentment, and paralysis related to the world economic and political uncertainty, and its impact on their businesses, families, and personal lives. Look for a high level of participation and interaction rather than passive “learning from an expert.” Prepare to be stretched. The day will offer varying tones, from serious self-discovery and group-level authenticity, to playfulness and creativity. These issues include (1) connection with our sense of calling or destiny, (2) connection with the key people in our lives, and (3) connection with ourselves. The afternoon session is a blend of life-sharing, experiential exercises, culminating in small-group discussions on the major issues we face as leaders today. To deepen connectivity within the chapter, members will form groups with other members whom they do not know well. Jim will share the stories and concepts that form the foundation of his recent book on life transition Facing Pain-Embracing Love: The Map to Authentic Living.Īfter this entertaining and eye-opening plenary session, members will self-select into forum-like groups for experiential, high-impact sharing about their lives. The morning session will focus on how to lead with clarity and courage, especially during times of crisis. He then paints the path out of the stuckness, built upon a commitment of realizing core-level life transformation. Jim outlines the “stages of stuckness” and presents the common symptoms, patterns and stories of leaders and spouses who are navigating challenging life transitions. ![]() Our lives may look good on the outside, but inside we’re beginning to sense: I’m stuck … This isn’t working. We have few friends or mentors who will tell us the truth. We long for a spiritual connection, but don’t know where or how to begin. Our spouse and kids resent us for putting career ahead of family. ![]() We feel driven to amass more wealth … because there is never enough. We spin in an endless cycle of obligations, lacking life purpose or peace. Outwardly, we seem to have it all, but behind the scenes … Our spouse is visible and vibrant, and our do-it-all kids are headed for big things. Our net worth may be well into the millions. We have our names on the door, the vacation home, and the envy of our peers.

OnCourse events engage attendees in a blend of teaching, small-group discussions and sharing, physical challenges, and uproarious socializing. To address these intimacy and integration issues, the OnCourse team works closely with the YPO Event Team to understand the demographics of the audience, and then co-create memorable experiences for the mix of attendees (YPO, Gold, spouses, young adults).
