Overview

Sailing Toward Horizon: A Leadership Voyage of Discovery takes place on the inland waters of Washington State and British Columbia. This book provides a rationale for why leadership needs to be different and examples of how to make it happen. The Great Man archetype is deeply embedded in our leadership DNA and is the default model for many organizations. This outdated archetype will not work in a world affected by climate change when entire coastal communities will need to mobilize to survive the impact of rising sea levels. You are invited to join the voyage and discover new ways to lead and work with colleagues. Time is running out to proactively respond to the impact of global warming.
