Growing in Wisdom. Leading with Impact.\n\nStepping Into Leadership\, Grounded in Purpose\nYou’ve excelled in your craft—the engineer everyone relies on\, the teacher people trust\, the healthcare worker who carries responsibility\, the nonprofit leader holding things together behind the scenes. \nThen one day\, someone says: “You should lead.” \nSuddenly\, new questions emerge: Am I ready? Can I lead others without losing myself in the process? How do I lead with both conviction and care? \nThe Living Stones Leadership Lab is a six-month\, in-person leadership journey for emerging managers and team leaders navigating this pivotal transition. \nDeveloped in collaboration with Ben Grizzle (Managing Director\, Goldman Sachs) and Belinda Neal (Managing Director\, Anthropic)\, LSLL combines leadership formation\, spiritual attentiveness\, mentorship\, and peer community to help participants grow in clarity\, courage\, and wisdom as they step into leadership. \nLeadership ability doesn’t arrive with a title—it is formed through practice\, reflection\, and relationship. Whether you are leading your first team\, preparing for your next role\, or seeking to grow as a manager\, Living Stones offers a fellowship rooted in faith\, grounded in wisdom\, and shaped for this moment of transition. \n\nWhat Last Year’s Fellows Shared\nParticipants consistently spoke about deep trust\, spiritual clarity\, honest reflection\, and meaningful community. \n\nWe quickly were able to trust one another and got to a level of vulnerability that was really helpful.” \n“It felt like the Holy Spirit really met us in each of our hot seats.” \n“We’re just grateful that we got the opportunity to build trust with people in a city where it can feel like you don’t actually need to trust anybody.” \n“The Lord used this cohort at exactly the right time in my life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis slideshow requires JavaScript. \nA Glimpse Into Last Year’s Cohort\nConversations around vocation\, leadership\, trust\, and spiritual attentiveness shaped last year’s inaugural gathering in New York City.
