Bravery is a value that can help build confidence and creativity, to make smarter decisions and to be a better leader. Bravery is linked to integrity, influence and trust. As one gains a deeper connection with your own bravery so you are better able to express yourself and your purpose in life without the fear, judgment and cynicism that hold us back from following through. 

The partners of the Creative Leadership Consultancy went to Japan to study the art of incense making in the ancient samurai tradition. The way these warriors used smell to unlock and embed bravery is a powerful way to engage your own courage.  Participants go through a unique process of crafting their own unique smell of what Bravery means for them into incense in this intervention.  

This workshop is an unforgettable and transformative experience of sense, emotion and action. The process allows participants to engage all the senses and allows access to deeper parts of the unconscious mind in order to experience deeper understanding and transformation. Especially powerful as an awakening and memorable team building process.

Hosted in 2017 by Elaine Rumboll, Marisa Farinha-Lloyd, and Francois Irvine of the Creative Leadership Consultancy at Woodlands Spa in Johannesburg.
