Everyone is a leader
Everyone is a leader. Including you.
You may not have a formal title. You may not oversee a group of people in an organization.
But you’re a leader in the example you set and in the responsibility you take. You lead in the way you influence others and how you make a difference in others’ lives. You lead as a friend, as a parent, as a member of a team. Throughout the day, in ways you may not even realize, you lead.
Everyone is a leader, and everyone has the potential to become a more effective leader.
A new approach to leadership
Judging by the challenges we confront today – challenges no previous generation of human beings has ever faced – we can say that something has been missing in education and in leadership training.
At MIU, we understand that change begins within – that we must be the change we want to see in the world. This is the element that’s been missing.
Our Enlightened Leadership program will train you in the best practices of leadership — communication skills, management and organizational skills, and more.
But more than that, the program gives you a way to become a continuously better version of yourself day by day – a way to grow your inner creative potentials. A way to become an increasingly effective leader. The chief way of doing this is through Transcendental Meditation practice.
This is what we mean by enlightened leadership. Growing in enlightenment means growing from within — in health and vitality, in creativity and intelligence, in happiness and compassion. It means growing in balance and harmony — with yourself, with others, with the universe.
Your admissions counselor will provide you with all the details of becoming a student, including connecting you with program faculty when you have questions.
This course is your entryway into MIU and Consciousness-Based Education. We dive into an ancient yet radically new framework for understanding the universe and our place in it. This model holds that consciousness, not matter, is fundamental. With this in mind, we look at some of life’s big questions: How can we develop our fullest potential as human beings? How do art and stories help us understand that potential? How can our own growth help create a more just and peaceful society? What do the world’s great wisdom traditions have in common? How can we improve education and healthcare? The new paradigm we explore in this course infuses all your classes at MIU. In this course, you'll learn the Transcendental Meditation® technique to awaken the full potential of consciousness in your life.
