    Join us for a meaningful conversation about grounding, discernment, and leadership in today's workplace!

    The virtual workshop will be experiential and conversational, drawing on participants’ own experiences as the starting point for reflection and learning. All are welcome—whether your values are rooted in faith traditions or in a broader sense of spirituality.

    The workshop will be led by Dr. Margaret Benefiel, Founder and CEO of Executive Soul and author on spirituality and leadership, and Rev. Dr. Debora Jackson, founder of The Renewal Group and Executive Pastor at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Malden, MA.
