Offered: August 2011
Location: Commonweal Garden, Bolinas, CA

Need an EOL "tune-up?" Want to re-connect to the work and to your friends — and get to know some powerful EOL graduates from other leadership circles?

 The EOL alumni community is filled with amazing leaders doing extraordinary work.  And as this network continues to grow, we want to find more opportunities for you to connect with one another. This second annual Summer Convergence is a way for all of you alums of the flagship 5-month EOL program or the EOL immersion program to integrate and deepen your learning, celebrate and play, set intentions for yourself and your work in the world, and broaden your connections with other leaders. 

This weekend is designed to strengthen the evolving EOL network, and to exchange ideas, best practices, and inspiration with other alumni; further develop your heart-centered, nature-sourced leadership; and experience the benefits and power of a collective leadership community.

See our Ecology of Leadership page for more information on the program.
