Our Journey Toward Purposeful Collectives

We began in 2000 with a shared conviction: personal transformation and collective leadership are inseparable when shaping a better future—a future where business, government, civil society, and nature work in harmony.

Founded by a diverse team of educators, professionals, and change agents, we built our mission on the belief that deeper human development is essential for meaningful, lasting progress.

In 2008, leadership passed to founding partner Dixon de Leña, who brings decades of experience consulting and coaching leaders across industries and continents, with a focus on cultivating conscious, purpose-driven leaders and enterprises.

Today, we continue to help individuals, organizations, and communities develop the inner capacities, relational skills, and whole systems wisdom needed to navigate complexity, lead with authenticity, and co-create a thriving, regenerative future grounded in resilience and shared purpose.

Our Foundation for Integral Development

Since 1982, our mission has been to guide growth that integrates the whole person, the whole organization, and the larger systems they influence — including, since 1999, our natural world. We believe lasting transformation happens when inner development aligns with outer action — when individuals, teams, and enterprises build the capacity to lead with wisdom, resilience, shared purpose, and a clear commitment to uplifting life in all its forms.

1. Vertical Development

We honor the evolving stages of human maturity — recognizing that leadership capacity grows as individuals advance through distinct levels of psychological and meaning-making development. With each stage, leaders gain deeper self-awareness, broader perspective, and greater complexity of insight. This lifelong process shapes the foundation for meaningful, sustainable transformation in both individuals and the systems they influence.

2. Individualized Unfoldment

We honor each person’s unique inner journey as a vital source of authentic leadership. By strengthening self-awareness, presence, and personal clarity, we help leaders bring greater integrity, resilience, and meaningful impact to all areas of life and work.

3. Contextual Awareness

We recognize how culture, history, and identity shape learning and growth. Factors such as gender, belief systems, indigenous values, a traditional educational model, history, and global influences can impact development. Awareness of these contexts deepens understanding and inclusion. It helps tailor experiences to fit each individual’s reality.

4. Embodied Integration

We help leaders and all members align cognitive, somatic, and relational capacities to strengthen their presence and effectiveness within larger systems. This integration builds a balanced way of being - self, culture, and system-awareness - for integral partnerships that drive lasting impact, enhance organizational performance, and support collective well-being.

Grounded in these principles, our approach creates environments where individuals can fully realize their potential, make meaningful contributions, and help build a just, regenerative future. Our work empowers individuals to contribute with purpose and integrity. We foster connections that inspire lasting change. Together, we support a future rooted in fairness and renewal.
