Make Shift Happen, an 8-day Leadership Residential

Everything is changing, everywhere, all at once, it seems. How do I make sense of this? I need to take time to learn, to reflect, to be more aware of my strengths and development areas. I want to learn not only from great teachers, but also from great participants. I need to build my network. I need to take greater leadership. What do I need to do?
