”“[Rockwood] helped me see in a new way just how much it matters to invest in my leadership and the leadership of folks around me!”
~ Virtual Art of Leadership alum
We are in a moment of transition, both as we shift into summer and as we begin to imagine a post-pandemic world. Ease your transition into this new season and way of being by investing in yourself and your leadership with a Rockwood training.
When you attend a Rockwood training, you’ll learn tools and practices that ground your actions and power as a leader in values of justice, racial equity, and liberation, all while having valuable space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect to your purpose.
Invest in your leadership this summer. Use the code Summer21 when you apply to get 10% off a selection of upcoming trainings:
