ORIGINS LEADERSHIP JOURNEY
An Epic Expedition to the Origin of Human Consciousness
The ORIGINS LEADERSHIP JOURNEY
is a groundbreaking organizational development intervention designed to activate human potential, deepen innovation and expand leadership consciousness by immersing participants in the primordial landscapes of human cognitive evolution.
​
Embark on an epic expedition through southern Africa, retracing the footsteps of our ancestors to the dawn of modern human consciousness and the emergence of Homo sapiens, the species of wisdom. ​
By engaging with mythical sites, archaeological finds, megalithic structures, fossil records, deep time impact craters, prehistoric animals and ancient edible botanicals, this sensory-rich experience reconnects participants with the deep evolutionary forces that shaped human perception, creativity and problem-solving.
The intervention leverages primal intelligence, embodied learning and sensory activation to reignite innovative thinking, leadership resilience and deep intuition in modern organizations.
​
This is more than a leadership programme - it is an odyssey of self-exploration, unlocking the potential to lead with clarity, authenticity and vision.​
THE GREATEST GARDEN ON EARTH
South African Fynbos®
A SENSORY CONNECTION TO ORIGIN
The wildflower biome at the southern tip of Africa is the greatest natural garden on earth, not only because of its unsurpassed floral diversity, breathtaking scenery and novel flavours that the world is only now discovering, but also because it holds the 'seeds' of human consciousness.
Unearthed in Cape coastal caves is some of the world's earliest archaeological evidence of human creativity and abstract thought dating back 160 000 years. Fynbos vegetation already covered the landscape at the time of the emergence of innovation in homo sapiens, 'sapiens' meaning wisdom.
By experiencing the ancient flavours of Fynbos today, it could be said that we reach into the depths of time and sense the first flowering of symbolic thought, the origin of consciousness.

AN ANCIENT FLAVOUR TRAIL
Cape Town Fynbos Experience®
A MIXOLOGY OF VELD & FLOWER
This cutting-edge organisational development intervention immerses delegates in a transformative journey at the southern tip of Africa, the cradle of modern human identity. It connects participants to a pivotal time in human history - 160,000 years ago, before the rise of culture - by engaging the senses and imagination through a unique sensory tasting experience.
At the heart of this intervention lies the novel exploration of ancient botanicals, endemic to this region, through flavour. Delegates taste carefully crafted infusions of these edible naturals, sparking an immediate sensory and symbolic experience. Each novel flavour becomes a portal to the essence of human origins, evoking associations, stimulating abstract thought and activating creativity. Like poetry, the tasting of these unique botanicals fosters symbolic thinking, bridging the ancient and modern mind in a deeply personal and imaginative way.
This process invites participants to connect with the "inner explorer" - the core of individuality - by blending nature with imagination. As delegates engage with this fusion of the tangible and symbolic, they embark on a personalised journey of self-discovery. This active sense of self, cultivated through symbolic engagement, builds a responsive, adaptable identity. It fosters authenticity, enabling individuals to engage meaningfully with others while celebrating diversity.
By anchoring diversity training in humanity’s shared origins and leveraging the power of sensory exploration, this intervention transforms the understanding of individuality and collective identity. It empowers participants to embrace diversity through authenticity, creativity and the shared symbolic journey that unites all humans across time and culture.
