THE QUEST FOR INNER STRENGTH BASED LEADERSHIP  

Only leaders with inner strength are leading from within and today we need this kind of leadership more than ever.

We are witnessing major existential challenges in the outer world: global warming, growing tensions and conflicts, increasing number of asymmetric threats, an destructive economy, voracious capitalism, work without meaning, insatiable greed for money and power, work without meaning, rapid degeneration of our environment with progressing destruction of ecosystems, science and technology moving out of control, progressing global, polarization, an emerging virtual world, artificial intelligence coming closer to be par with the biological one, just to name a few. In addition to this we have a growing world population compounding most of these challenges.

To be able to handle all these challenges we need desperately more feminine leadership acting from within, not just copying the masculine leadership. Since we need leadership based on the inner strength, we need to give the opportunity for more women to develop it. There are many different methods and techniques to develop the personal inner strength. The most effective is the Israeli way. It is a blend of three elements: mental power, physical resilience and practical know-how.  

ISA-Israel the leading training organization for security professionals is providing inner strength development for them since many years. Based on this experience and the state-of-the-art thinking about leadership from within provided by Learnità the London based innovation enabler a program for the development of inner strength for females was developed: “The Quest for Inner Strength for Females” which will be provided by the International Female Leadership Academy (IFLA) This is a unique extensive practical training program concentrated on the development of the personal inner strength by top qualified instructors and coaches. Most of them are female Israeli experts, former commanders in the Israeli army and security services. 

IFLA will offer in 2010 the following trainings:
