Move Over Maslow: Leading from the Strength of the
Feminine Maslow’s hierarchy of needs tells us that we have to take care
of our individual needs before we self-actualize (spiritually grow) yet
intuitively we know this is not true. We know basic needs and the community
needs are often one in the same. Research shows that when life gets tough women
don’t participate in flight or fight we sit down over coffee and work it out.
The feminine is in all of us. The capacity to see each person, situation or
organization holistically is intrinsically ours; one we can apply in
transforming how we do life and business. We have a model. Now is the time. We
are the people.
Think Like an Indian: How to Create Community and
Connection in the Workplace Native Americans create community.
Community is defined as the place were each person is imperative to the whole.
How do they handle disputes, trumping each other and those who don’t give
equally? Learn the four basic principles of creating sustainable community
connection at work or in your personal life. Garner the wisdom of the age and
discover how to evoke that “oneness” experience you’ve heard about. It’s not a
mystery when you know how. You can make a difference in your relationships and
people do transform in community. Gathering in community we engage the
collective wisdom that only emerges when we come together.

wealth. Are you ready to experience what they already know? You won’t believe
the results.
