I am not young enough to know everything.

Projects & Geo Points

Around the world GLN members work on many innovative projects with their own organizations and together with other GLN members. Some of them are featured here. Collectively these projects help to change the field of leadership practice and theory drawing from inspired design and pragmatic implementation approaches sourced from diverse cultures and leadership disciplines.

Geo Points: In our experience, leadership development programs as well as individual and group interventions are greatly enhanced by facilities and natural environments that nourish and inspire people and allow them to reconnect with the nature and communities they want to sustain. Geo Points are such retreat and convention centers that are specifically designed to optimize leadership work. On this website we describe Geo Points developed by GLN members.

Some of our members also participate in the Powers of Place Initiative, which provides an overview of many more venues similar to Geo Points. For more information, please visit www.powersofplace.com.
