Description
Principles, guidelines and methods for working together
through a considerate leadership Model.
What does working with horses have to do with working with
humans? Herd dynamics and the expressive, silent language of horses
are a remarkable example of non-verbal communication and
leadership-based collaboration. Fred has learned the transformative
change that takes place when the old-school paradigm of training
horses built on domination and control, is abandoned for a philosophy
of developing collaboration with willing partners through invitation,
and non-violent, positively-visualized dialogue. Learn how the ideals
and methods in this powerful leadership model provide insight towards
subtlety and softness, and contribute to health, well being and
balance; in both horses and humans.
