MACHU PICCHU LEADERS’ JOURNEY 10 th Anniversary Salkantay Lodge to Lodge, Cusco, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu Program Leader – Elizabeth Becker You are invited to join a select group of men and women leaders on an extraordinary journey to one of the wonders of the ancient world, Machu Picchu in Peru. A true Trip of a Lifetime! Trek an ancient hidden Inca trail all the while enjoying luxury of private lodges, exclusive chefs and world-class care. Deeply immerse yourself in the culture, history, and art – textiles, architecture and silver. Discover a new world while you explore what big questions and ideas you have for your life and your work. What is the Big Insistent Goal (BIG) calling you? We start by gathering virtually with a series of four recorded calls two months prior to the trip to share our Big Insistent Goal (BIG). We will get to know each other and explore the elements of leadership needed to bring these visions to life using our minds, emotions, and bodies. And, like the ancient Incas, we will explore our BIGs by taping into transcendent energies, or spirit, all around us. Enjoy two personal coaching sessions with Elizabeth Becker, a seasoned organizational leader and executive coach, to start manifesting your BIG and identify your key personal strengths, one of which you will share with the group during the program. Then as we gather in Cusco, Peru, the adventure capital of South America, we begin to go even deeper into the culture and start to physically challenge ourselves with out-of-this-world hiking at altitude – and we do this all with luxury lodges and beauty surrounding us. Each participant will co- lead one day with Elizabeth and will have the opportunity to craft our experience. And each day, with each step forward, we will make remarkable progress on our BIG projects. Local business and non-profit leaders, cultural ambassadors and teachers will join us to share their BIGs and share with you their knowledge and experiences. Plan to be inspired by their lives and the lessons they have learned. Expect to be surprised, entertained and energized by cultural ceremonies and serendipitous happenings. Our travel peaks at Machu Picchu, the ancient sanctuary of the Incas where we will explore and tap into the amazing forces that led people for centuries to this hidden gem. As we prepare to leave Peru, each leader will be crafting their own Personalized BIG Action Plan to take their learning and their projects to the next level. When we return, we gather for a celebratory group call claiming our next steps and successes, on our BIG and in our lives as leaders. Join us! Join us! Program Dates: September – December 2017 Travel in Peru: November 1-12, 2017 Optional VIP Coaching Sessions available virtually and while in Peru Apply today!

The leadership journey is a chance of a lifetime – not to be missed. How often do you get to meet 10 other inspiring leaders and get to know them really well, sharing challenges and fun? How often do

we get to reflect on ourselves, our lives and our purpose? I rediscovered many talents I had forgotten and that I do need focus and a specific purpose to put them into action. This program gave me both.

What a gift! Robin Anderson, senior financial analyst and land trust board member, San Francisco, CA
