LifeSkills Conference

         In our Masonic LifeSkills Conference we seek to create a healthy, trusting, emotionally safe community of learners.  Community means that we are connected. We are open to relationship and connection. We are never completely alone. In our large group initiatives we create a community where joy and sharing become the norm. In our small groups we deeply dialogue, and address concerns and challenges.

         We create opportunities that invite our intellect. We analyze, offer logical solutions, and work through the methods of science.

         We create a safe space that invites our emotions to be heard. We play, we cry, we can be angry without hurting anyone. We are authentic, we are transparent, we are real.

         We create solutions that recognize perseverance as one of the most essential human traits. In teams we consolidate our effort and energy to reach shared goals.

         In our community of trust we all grow into servant leaders. Through our principles and practice of respect for self and others, responsibility for all I think, feel, say, and do, and quality relationships, we grow as leaders.
