About Heartland: Core Beliefs

Our Core Beliefs
Philosophically, core beliefs inform our work and are foundational to the values we hold and the principles by which we operate.

We believe:
* A leader is anyone whose intention is to step forward to serve in these times;
* Leadership development is rooted in personal and human development;
* Organizational transformation is rooted in individual transformation;
* Reflection is a core leadership competency, and one which is often minimized or overlooked;
* Effective leaders combine their head and heart when making business decisions;
* Humans learn best in a social context, within a community of others, and through storytelling and conversation;
* Leaders are hungering for a time out for deep, genuine, transformative conversation;
* Leadership is a shared activity;
* Essential conversation will change us and the world.


"The key to our future lies in the choices we make, moment-by-moment, hour-by-hour, day-by-day.

The key to our future lies in our willingness to learn together by participating in courageous conversations, about ourselves, our work, our world.

The key to our future lies in our ability to evoke and rediscover the power of community, in our families, our work, and our world.

The key to our future lies in our commitment to discover and act on our true purpose, to share the gifts we came to give."

- Kate O'Keefe, Heartland Member
