We have entered the Decisive Decade, a critical, bewildering moment in which deeper conversations about “right action” are desperately needed. Given the quickening pace of global change and our mounting crises, all of us are going to have to step fully into our power and actively engage in shifting the catastrophic course that humanity is on. We need a transformation of consciousness and all of its ensuing cultural and behavioral changes NOW.
That is why we are excited to invite you to join us for the 2010 Hollyhock Summer Gathering, an annual invitational leadership conference imbued with a heartfelt sense of community, spirit, and service. We believe that if we all do our part to shift humanity from an ego-centric to an eco-centric worldview, we just might generate the collective wisdom and power needed to save the world. It's time to take a Warrior Stance - to think big, act courageously, and come together in love and joy.
This Gathering will convene a diverse intergenerational group of creative leaders to explore ways to work together and support each other in creating a world that works for all. We want you to be a part of this community conversation. Over the years many enduring collaborations have been forged at the Summer Gathering -- new projects are created, others find support and funding, powerful ideas and creative sparks are shared... and a great time is had by all!
Special Emphasis #1: Diversity. Last year we achieved a significant increase in the number of participants under age 35. The intergenerational dynamic was powerful and magical for all, and we want more! We are also seeking the participation of people from diverse cultures and backgrounds. We want to bring a global perspective to our time together and welcome friends from other parts of the world.
Special Emphasis #2: Transcendence of Polarities. The capacity to more deeply understand and listen to one another is a crucial skill for the Decisive Decade. Throughout the conference we will practice bridging the gap of polarity and bringing differing points of view into the conversation. Please think of thoughtful people to invite who represent different perspectives on the political, cultural, spiritual, and economic spectrums.
LIMITED SPACE: At this point the number of people who want to participate in the Gathering outnumbers the spaces available. This is a good thing, but it means that not everyone will get to be there every year. Here's a hint to assure a space this year: Register early and book your room at Hollyhock, and/or clearly contribute to achieving one of the two goals above.
