Leading Through Uncertainty
Teamwork & Leadership Training with Equines
Harness the wisdom of the horse to transform your team into an agile, innovative herd
Teaching the Diamond Model™ of Shared Leadership by TeachingHorse
"I’m more mindful now about how I can take responsibility, shift my energy and be a solution rather than blame the situation/co-workers for not doing better. It was so helpful to see the patterns in myself and how much changing those negative tendencies, my attitude and approach, and shifting my approach contributed to a better (more efficient and harmonious) workplace dynamic.”

Ana, Retreat Manager
Gita is a wonderful facilitator, and through equine experiences, one can really begin to tune into your own inner wisdom through being present and listening to your heart. It's really a lovely container through which to foster teamwork and deeper relationships with one another. I am very grateful for this experience and opportunity."
Sundara, Nature Educator
Gita does an excellent job at making you feel relaxed, welcomed and loved. Her presence alone allows you to be able to more fully open to the moment and what the horses can teach you about yourself and what you need to grow into a more complete and happy person.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do participants need to have horse experience? No, all the learning and facilitation we do is from the ground.
-
Do we need to come to your facility or are you able to come to us? My workshops and facilitation are flexible. If our work together includes equines and your team requires that I travel to you, I have partner organizations with horses available for this work.
