Werner Erhard
A GREAT MAN
“The problems we
have now in communities and societies are going to be resolved only when we are
brought together by a common sense that each of us is a visionary. Each of us
must come to the realization that we can function and live at the level of
vision rather than following some great leader’s vision. Instead of looking for
a great leader, we are in an era where each of us needs to find the great
leader in ourselves.”
- Werner Erhard
I had the great fortune
of hearing Werner Erhard speak last night. My husband and I took a course with
Michael Jensen and Werner two and a half years ago in Canada on Being A Leader
and the Effective Exercise of Leadership. Both my husband and I work in the
field of leadership development, and so in order to be ongoingly empowering, we
are always interested in our own personal growth and development, for the
expansion of our own leadership capacity. I have been a student of many thought
systems, and personal and organizational transformation is my profession. For
over 35 years I have integrated the revelations awakened within me out of
participating in work inspired by true leaders and great thinkers. Regardless of any individual's personal opinion, Werner
Erhard is one of humanity’s true leaders and great thinkers.
I share this short video
of Werner talking about the leadership work he has been co-developing over the
last 13 years, standing on the foundation of the other transformational work he
has refined since 1971. In my consulting practice, working with leaders who
work with leaders over the last 15 years, the principles Werner speaks of in
his new paradigm of leadership are actualized by many of these powerfully effective, empowering, and compassionate clients. However,
articulating this paradigm in a way that educates as well as enlightens is one
of the gifts of this great man’s work.
Werner’s leadership
paradigm is opening up new pathways which will open up new pathways which will
open up new pathways … this is one expression of the evolution of human
consciousness that is enlightening for us in the present as well as continues
its catalytic unfoldment for generations to come. If you are interested in
being the leader that you intrinsically are, in whatever walk of life you are
in, take five minutes to watch and listen, and if you are inspired, the whole of this
leadership model is available online.

I truly enjoyed the blog about Werner Erheardt and found it both inspirational and enlightening. He has brought boundless and endless innovation to the field of human development for probably 50 years. He is still so proactive and vital. Laura you captured the essense of the man and his contribution in your comments and thank you for doing so. You are one of the inspirational leaders he talks about. Nick Neuhausel
