The Arete leadership approach, Leadership as Gardening has one goal: the human flourishing of employees. Without the people of a company there is no innovation, no growth, no business. Together they are like a garden. In order for a garden to flourish and produce
the fruit it was planted for, a certain environment and proper nourishment are needed.
Leadership is the gardening.

In the work of knowledge intensive organizations, in a world desperate for innovative solutions, there is an increasing need for the creative human presence of everyday leaders. Regular people awakened to a purpose beyond themselves.

We support the growth of leaders in companies seeking to explore their Arete - found in their people.
