Mission

The Shannon Leadership Institute provides the time, space, and tools for individuals to explore their purpose, align with their core values, and renew their commitment to transformational change in themselves, their organizations, and their communities.

Vision

We envision a world where a diverse network of purpose- and values-driven leaders build resilient and vibrant communities for all to thrive.

Values

Exploration. We value curiosity as a catalyst for creativity, innovation, and meaningful change. By embodying curiosity in our leadership, we inspire others to think critically, explore new ideas, and contribute unique insights. This fosters a dynamic, adaptable organization where discovery leads to transformative solutions.

Transformation. We create environments that foster bold thinking, challenge the status quo, and inspire creativity. We actively pursue transformative change that advances our vision and drives meaningful progress. True leadership requires the ability to transform both ourselves and the organizations we serve.

Clarity. We prioritize knowing our deeper purpose, which guides our actions and decisions. Understanding and articulating the "why" behind our leadership is essential.  This clarity allows us to lead with intention, resilience, and a commitment to creating a positive, lasting impact. 

Resilience. We value resilience in the face of challenges, viewing setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles. We cultivate adaptability in ourselves and our teams, encouraging flexibility, creativity, and the courage to take calculated risks.

Belonging. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive community where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives. We believe leadership thrives in environments where diversity is celebrated, collaboration is prioritized, and all can grow and succeed
