We define a leader as anyone who wants to help, who is willing to step forward to make a difference in the world. We know that the world is blessed with an abundance of these leaders.

BIOGRAPHY
Margaret writes, teaches, and speaks about radically new practices and ideas for organizing in chaotic times. She works to create organizations of all types where people are known as the blessing, not the problem.

She is president of The Berkana Institute, a charitable global foundation serving life-affirming leaders around the world, and was an organizational consultant for many years, as well as a professor of management in two graduate programs.

Her work appears in two award-winning books, Leadership and the New Science and A Simpler Way plus several videos and articles. She draws many of her ideas from new science and life’s ability to organize in self-organizing, systemic, and cooperative modes. And, increasingly her models for new organizations are drawn from her understanding of many different cultures and spiritual traditions. Her newest books are Finding Our Way and turning to one another. Her articles and work can be accessed at www.margaretwheatley.com.
