ConnectIONS Live!
What is true wisdom and how is it different from intelligence? What is the source of wisdom and how can we cultivate it using noetic practices? And why does it matter in our personal, professional, and collective life experience?
Please join IONS CEO Claire Lachance and her special guests as we engage in a dynamic exploration of wisdom and its relationship to noetic sciences. Grounded in Vedantic wisdom, extensive research, and practical application, Prasad Kaipa will discuss his theories regarding the importance of moving from “smart” to “wise.” We will then explore with Helen Stewart the role of intuition as a key access point to inner wisdom and its crucial importance in advancing personal, business, and collective transformation.
We look forward to sharing how IONS is contributing to the deeper exploration of wisdom via our research-driven Noetic Signature model and the Noetic Leadership Initiative. Webinar participants will be invited to join our lively conversation with questions and comments.
