The myth of Prometheus is the story of a leader bringing fire-wisdom-innovation from the exclusive possession of the gods to all of humanity.

This is the perfect metaphor for our mission with The Prometheus Project: to open the capacities and skills of leadership to every person in every capacity and context.

The etymology of the word means “forethought”; an apt term for the measured consideration that The Prometheus Project brings that intention to open the flow of leadership in our communities, organizations and ourselves. We see that as a movement from individualism and specialization to collective action and integration.

We achieve open energized flow with shoe-leather, not show; through creative thinking, not exploitative inspirations; and through the collective action and influence.

Like a great design-thinking team, all of the stakeholders in the leadership and leadership development process are welcomed; including learners, executives, practitioners and researchers.
