Dominic’s commitment to human flourishing, in its many forms, drives his work in leadership development. He believes that flourishing is what we are all made for, yet myriad obstacles keep the weird and wonderful potential of every person pushed down in various ways. Dominic sees leadership development as the process of unlocking this potential to become more fully human and more fully ourselves.
