Transformational Leadership Workshop Report
The Institute for Sustainable Peace held its 5th Annual Transformational Leadership Workshop from June 10-18 in the beautiful and inspiring Estes Park, Colorado. This year’s workshop focused on addressing the question, “So What Does Peace Mean?” Over 25 Sudanese participants, from across Sudan and the Diaspora as well as across age, occupation, and gender, gathered together for a week of intense engagement and visioning for sustainable peace in Sudan. Amidst daily reports of fighting and atrocities in the Sudan, hope remained strong among such a diverse group of individuals that peace could be achieved
The participants spent time not only addressing what peace means, but also becoming equipped with the tools of generative dialogue and strategic planning. They engaged in exercises meant to stretch their minds, hearts, and wills. In addition, Ballard Pritchett and ISP Senior Fellows Peter Bishop and Mark Chupp led various sessions, ranging from scenario forecasting to appreciative inquiry. Participants spent the final days of the workshop utilizing these skills to create and map out projects for sustainable peace that will then be transferred to the Sudan.
The ISP is already at work envisioning what the next workshop will encompass and how to best facilitate equipping others with the necessary tools and processes to build sustainable peace.
