ALL KINGS LEADERSHIP TRACK

ABOUT

Our community is growing, and with it, the need for strong, grounded, and heart-led leaders. The All KIngs Leadership Track is our response to that call — a pathway for men who feel ready to deepen their own inner work and begin holding space for others.

This track is designed for men who have demonstrated a commitment to All Kings who feel called to lead weekend retreats, facilitate group processes, and carry the culture of our men's work into the world with integrity, clarity, and care.

ADVANCEMENT

Men can apply to advance to the next level once per year, based on clear criteria (to be provided). A collective of more senior facilitators and heavies will determine if a man is ready to advance through a transparent process. If a man receives a “not now,” he will be told what is working, what can improve, and be given support to develop.
