‘Real Meeting is one of the best books on leadership I have ever read’ – Rob Long

Aneta and Brian are Directors of Embodied Leadership (https://www.embodied-leadership.eu/) a company that focuses on teaching, coaching and training SPoR to organisations across the globe.

This week was about six days of intensive coaching, learning and conversation. At the end of the day or the next, we recoded a number of videos to help capture what was learned each day. Each videos runs for approx. 10 minutes. You can see these videos here: https://vimeo.com/showcase/12417845

The subjects of the video are:

• Ethics of Risk
• Bias, Jung and SPoR
• Mastering SPoR
• SEEK Discussion
• SPoR HSE iCue Audit

All of the videos are freely available and are focused on reflections on what was learned.

Another bonus of each day was working through Aneta’s PhD that has a focus on The Influence of Carl Jung on the Development of Leadership in SPoR. When this finally is finished, it will be a game changer for many.
