The 5 Roles of a Master Herder: A Revolutionary Model for Socially Intelligent Leadership — 1-Day Indoor Presentation
July 31, 2016
$1701-Day Indoor Presentation — By Linda Kohanov
“An innovative and practical nature-based approach to leadership — 
and life. It’s not just for corporate executives. Parents, teachers, community organizers, film directors, and especially politicians would all benefit from learning these skills.”
— William Shatner, actor, director, and author of Leonard and Up Till Now
What might we accomplish if we finally understood how to be powerful, together?
In this one-day workshop, bestselling author Linda Kohanov shares compelling insights and practical tools from her new book The Five Roles of a Master Herder. This model—based on an ancient source of wisdom—offers a much needed perspective on how free, empowered people can navigate constantly changing social and economic climates. Linda looks at traditional herding cultures where tribes must manage large groups of powerful animals without the benefit of fences and with very little reliance on restraints. Master Herders exhibit a sophisticated understanding of leadership and group cohesion as they move through seasonal grazing lands, facing predators, and dealing with all kinds of challenges along the way. Linda skillfully adapts this nature based wisdom into principles that can help adults and adolescents build trust, transform aggression, empower people and inspire them to work together for a better future. “It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you know how to employ these power- and relationship-building tools,” she says. “Understanding the differences between the five roles and how to combine them has been a revelation to executives, equestrians, educators, parents, counselors, and social service personnel—basically anyone interested in accessing the greener pasturers of humanity’s own untapped potential.”
“Linda Kohanov presents an intriguing model for human organizations adapted from those found among animals….An important addition to the literature on self-actualization, leadership, and natural horsemanship.”
— Rick Lamb, PhD, author of Human to Horseman and coauthor of The Revolution in Horsemanship
The Five Roles of a Master Herder one-day workshop offers practical tools for taking horse-inspired wisdom back to the human world. You will:
- Take the Master Herder Professional Assessment and receive coaching in how to interpret the results.
- Discover the benefits and challenges of each role, as well as why balancing all five the roles is necessary to success in your personal as well as professional life.
- Learn innovative skills for handling conflict and for motivating and empowering others.
This powerful indoor workshop offers compelling, nature-based tools for executives, managers, and coaches, as well as people who work in non-profit, social service, political and community based organizations. Equestrians will explore the advantages of employing this model with horses. Parents and teachers will discover the benefits of balancing all five roles in working with and caring for children of all ages.
Since 2013, Linda has led this innovative training at businesses, conferences, universities and other international venues:
