Leadership on the Landscape September 2026

What if the problem isn't the disturbance?

Most leaders spend their time trying to prevent disruption. But in nature, disturbance isn't always something to avoid. Fire, wind, flooding, insects, and fallen trees can all reshape an ecosystem—and often create the conditions for new life, greater diversity, and long-term resilience. Without disturbance, forests change anyway, often in ways we never intended.

Join us at Hunt Woods as we explore how disturbance shapes both ecosystems and organizations. Walking through actively managed and unmanaged forests, participants will examine what healthy disturbance looks like, when intervention is necessary, and how leaders can distinguish between change that weakens an organization and change that ultimately helps it thrive.

Designed for managers, supervisors, department heads, executives, and anyone responsible for people and organizational outcomes, Leadership on the Landscape offers a refreshing alternative to traditional leadership development by taking the conversation outside.

Note:

Participants are encouraged to dress comfortably for the weather and will be asked to leave all communication devices behind.
