Download or read book Horse Sense for the Leader Within written by Ariana Strozzi and published by . This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse Sense for the Leader Within is a must read for everyone! With innovative vision and grounded experience, Ariana Strozzi bridges two seemingly different worlds, creating a powerful new platform for human development, growth and learning. She eloquently reveals how horses mirror our inner world and provide dramatic, transformative shifts in the way we perceive ourselves. Strozzi takes the reader on a journey into the natural world where a wealth of knowledge already exists about what it means to be a leader of one's life. She defines a path to leadership that begins with understanding ourselves from a biological perspective. Leadership as followership comes to life as she encourages the reader to step outside of the human's narrow view of leadership. "Are you leading your life or is it leading you?" becomes the topic of exploration. By becoming aware of our animal nature and our innate drive for survival, we develop the capacity to respond with choice versus react to the pressures of life. The journey continues with insights into the powerful elements of intuitive and emotional intelligence and the significance of nonverbal communication. Ariana demonstrates how horses reflect our patterns of behavior, thought, perceptions and performance in a thousand pounds of visual imagery. They show us the gap between how we actually present ourselves to others distinct from how we think we are being. They ask, "Who is leading?" and expect us to know what we care about and believe in ourselves. In so doing, they help us understand that leadership begins with the self we are. Horses teach us how to find self-acceptance in a world of judgment. As we learn to think more like a horse, we develop our intuitive imagination and can create new possibilities for our lives. Rather than focusing on what is wrong with us, we shift our attention towards what we are naturally good at. On this path of becoming, we focus on staying connected to what has meaning and purpose.

This book was released on 2011-01-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse Sense for the Leader Within is an excellent resource and must-read for people interested in Equine Guided Education Equine Assisted Learning, Equine Experiences, nature-based learning and self-development. With innovative vision and grounded experience, Ariana Strozzi brings together the universal principles of horsemanship and leadership, creating a powerful new platform for human development, growth and learning. An internationally recognized pioneer in the field of Equine Guided Education, Ariana eloquently reveals how horses become our healers and teachers, inviting us to awaken our intuitive and somatic senses and reconnect to what has heart and meaning. She reveals how respectful leadership is based on partnership rather than command and control. Leadership begins with the self we are and how we walk into our lives with presence and clarity. Leadership was not invented by human beings, rather its roots are in the animal kingdom as a way for social animals to communicate and coordinate. Ariana reveals the biological underpinnings of both horse and human by defining nine principles of Intuitive Leadership. Through these principles, she shares how our intuitive and sensate awareness can help us find clarity out of chaos and how to navigate the challenges and opportunities of our lives. By becoming aware of our animal nature and our innate drive for survival, we develop the capacity to respond with choice rather than merely react to the pressures of life. Ariana explores how the essential elements of intuitive and sensate intelligence, nonverbal communication, and re-connecting to our anima-self can revive the spirit and create clear focus and passion for a life well lived. She discusses the importance of the spiritual aspect of the mind/body/spirit in the healing arts and how it is ultimately the most significant part of a person's life force, the most important part that must be found when someone is in transition. The numerous stories throughout the book show how horses teach us to find self-acceptance in a world of judgment. As we learn to think more like a horse, we develop our intuitive imagination and create new possibilities for our lives. Rather than focusing on what is wrong with us, we shift our attention toward what is right about us. On this path of becoming, we focus on staying connected to what we care about most. Ariana eloquently invites us to explore new ways of thinking about our path toward leading our life on purpose. The Expanded Edition of Horse Sense for the Leader Within includes over fifty pages of new writings, stories, and expanded topics including Somatics and Spirit.
Download or read book Think Like a Horse written by Grant Golliher and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Think Like a Horse, veteran “horse whisperer” and leadership expert Grant Golliher applies his hard-won horse sense to teach invaluable lessons anyone can use to live a fuller, more successful life. Grant Golliher is what some would call a “horse whisperer,” able to get a wild horse to calmly accept a saddle and a rider without the use of force. Through training thousands of horses, many traumatized or abused, Golliher was able to learn essential lessons about communication, boundaries, fairness, trust, and respect—lessons that apply not just to horses but to humans as well. It’s why celebrities, Fortune 500 executives, professional coaches, supreme court justices, and even ordinary families from around the world flock to his Wyoming ranch every year to take part in what one CEO called “the most transformational experience I have ever encountered.” Horse whispering may sound like magic, but as Grant explains in Think Like a Horse, it’s not really all that mysterious. The lessons he shares are as fundamental and ageless as the relationship between horses, the people who ride them, and the beauty of the West. In fact, it’s an approach that anyone can learn, and should learn, in order to better understand our common humanity, overcome trauma, foster more fulfilled relationships, and unlock untapped potential in virtually every aspect of our lives. All you have to do is think like a horse.

Book excerpt: From the author of the #1 bestseller The Man Who Listens to Horses, a book for all of us seeking to strengthen our human relationships "Monty Roberts will make you marvel."—The New York Times Book Review In The Man Who Listens to Horses, Monty Roberts revealed the depth of communication possible between human and horse. Touching the hearts of more than four million readers worldwide, that memoir—which spent more than a year at the top of The New York Times bestseller list—described his discovery of the "language" of horses and the dramatic effectiveness of removing violence from their training. Now, the world's most famous horse gentler demonstrates how his revolutionary Join-Up technique can be used not just for horses, but as a model for how to strengthen human relationships. With vivid, often deeply moving anecdotes, Roberts shows how the lessons learned from the thousands of horses he has known can provide effective guidelines for improving the quality of our communication with one another—from learning to "read" each other effectively, to creative fear-free environments, and, most importantly, teaching belief in the power of gentleness and trust.

Book excerpt: The book for which people have been asking Monty Roberts for years, Join-Up describes how what he has learnt from horses can play an important role in improving our lives. Monty Roberts has been travelling all over the world, demonstrating his work for the last ten years. Public reaction to him, and to his books, has confirmed his belief that the concepts of Join-Up can help humans develop both business and personal communication. For many years corporations have been sending their managers to Monty Roberts' demonstrations, and the messages of non-violence, of listening, and of the importance of trust have been successfully developed in many of the companies. But Monty and Pat Roberts have also fostered over forty children and have seen how the same concepts of mutual agreement and trust can be used with great benefits in a family environment. Join-Up is full of stories of those who have found, through Monty Roberts, the strength to face their problems whatever they may be. Some are heart-wrenching, some are funny, all are illuminating. Join-Up is full of new stories about some of the horses he has worked with, and from whom he has learnt what he believes. The Man Who Listens To Ho

Download or read book The Power of the Herd written by Linda Kohanov and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linda Kohanov is beloved for her groundbreaking articulation of “the way of the horse,” an experiential wisdom known to riders for centuries but little studied or adapted to off-horse use. Now Kohanov takes those horse-inspired insights on the nonverbal elements of exceptional communication and leadership into the realms of our workplaces and relationships. Here we explore the benefits of “nonpredatory power” in developing assertiveness, fostering creativity, dealing with conflict, and heightening mind-body awareness. In “A Brief History of Power,” the first part of this far-reaching book, Kohanov profiles cultural innovators who employed extraordinary nonverbal leadership skills to change history, usually on horseback: Winston Churchill, George Washington, Alexander the Great, and Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha), among others. She also draws on the behavior of mature horse herds, as well as the herding cultures of Africa and Mongolia, to debunk theories of dominance hierarchies, challenge ingrained notions of “survival of the fittest,” and demonstrate the power of a consensual leadership in which governing roles are fluid. Kohanov then adapts these lessons into twelve powerful guiding principles we can all incorporate into our work and personal lives. Eloquent and provocative, this is horse sense for everyone who seeks to thrive in the herds we all run in — our communities, careers, families, and friendships.

Download or read book Horse Science Horse Sense written by David Stang and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on what science has learned about horses and horse-human interaction. It is not a book about riding, diet, illness, shoeing or showing. It is more about how horses work than about how to work them, more about what they want to do than what you can make them do. In my time with my horse and mule, I''ve heard a lot of stuff again and again, stuff that just didn''t seem right to me. In search of the truth, I did what everyone else does: I talked to other riders, hired trainers, attended clinics, bought books, subscribed to magazines, explored websites. These sources all seemed to agree with each other, but things still didn''t seem right. So I turned to science, in hopes that there would be some better information here. I was surprised by what I found. Science has much to say about horses, but it tells a very different story than does our dogma about horses. After reading about 1,500 studies and writing this book, I can now say that very little of what the world believes about horses turns out to be true. Science doesn''t always support our intuitions or dogma. For instance, there is dogma that "horses need leadership". In fact, they don''t have leaders, don''t understand leadership as humans do, and get along just fine without it. Leadership in horses comes about through "collective decision making", the same principle used by fish and birds in their schools and flocks. Science also challenges our notions of "respect", "natural horsemanship", "dominance" and "partnership". And no scientist will ever claim that imprinting takes place in foals - or any other mammal. We have let conventional explanations confuse us. For instance, horses don''t "move away from pressure". A draft horse will happily pull a cart, leaning into its harness. Horses move away from discomfort and pain. This makes them no different than any other animal capable of movement. Horses don''t respect humans. They are comfortable maintaining a very small personal space when with those they trust, and humans confuse this natural crowding with a lack of respect. Horses can be punished when they approach, but this doesn''t build a bond -- it tears it down. We confuse respect with fear. Horses have no idea that they are "prey animals". They band together because they feel comfort when near those they know, and insecure when they are alone. This makes them no different than goldfish or starlings. Our everyday interactions with our horse are confused by the dogma of trainers, clinicians, books, and magazines. For example, efforts in the round pen do not change your horse''s behavior outside the round pen: whatever is learned in the round pen stays in the round pen. Underlying the magical power of horse whisperers is this simple fact: horses don''t like to be chased. Our efforts to train a horse are full of bumbling. Few seem to know that the way to your horse''s heart is through his stomach, not his withers, and that carrots work far better than scratches or rubbing as a reward in training. Few seem to know that very mild punishment seems quicker at changing behavior, and reward is better at maintaining behavior. Few seem to understand the importance of timing in delivering rewards. This book addresses current horse dogma using experimental horse research, ethological studies of feral horses, comparative biology, social psychology, and common sense. It covers many topics: Pleasure, pain, learning, social behavior, personality, communication, mood and emotion, flight, fight, freeze, early learning and imprinting, mental illness, learned helplessness, vision, hearing, smell, and touch. I hope that I can bring together the neglected literature of equine science with the good intentions of the horse world, and serve horses and their humans better than we now do with good intentions alone. My apologies for the price of the paperback, but the book turned out to be over 600 pages!
Download or read book Taking the Reins written by Harold Kurstedt and published by Advantage Media Group. This book was released on 2012-10-19 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For anyone who wants better relationships and success at the office and at home.In solution-focused leadership, a leader recognizes, affirms, harnesses, and encourages further development of the strengths of those around him or her, while guiding the team toward a mutually-agreed-upon vision. Like horses, people in the workplace want to be treated fairly and with respect, are willing to take responsibility, and want to productively contribute. They want to participate, be heard, trust and be trusted, and make a difference. Neither horses nor people are motivated by rules and organizational bureaucracies. Instead, getting through the day in peace, doing a good job, building enduring relationships with others, and finding joy in what they do helps them discover meaning and purpose in their lives. Many of our top industry producers fail to become superior contributors until they learn to be other-focused. Through conscious and consistent effort, a producer's relationship competence can be raised to the level of his or her technical competence, resulting in a highly-valued leader, supervisor, and manager. Taking the Reins encourages management techniques focused on relationships, supervision based on realistic expectations, and leadership through recognition of the strengths of others.
