As a startup founder and CEO, leadership is arguably my most important responsibility. Yet I’ve so rarely made the space for deep and productive reflection on my leadership practice. I’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, and taken the trainings, but to be honest these have had little meaningful impact on my mindset or performance as a leader.
In this way, my time in Kenya was unlike any professional development experience I’ve ever had. No New York City seminar can match the learning derived from my engagements with Samburu elders alongside entrepreneurs and executives from four different continents, as we ascended the sacred Mt. Ololokwe together. This setting, combined with the Safarini team’s culturally competent and intelligent moderation created an experience that truly reshaped the way I think about my business, my team, and my career. I would highly recommend the experience to anyone looking for professional inspiration and self-discovery.
