Glenn Hartelius
Attention Strategies Institute
Bio: Glenn Hartelius, PhD, is an innovator in the development and application of tools to develop exceptional leadership skills, based on a psychology of the whole person. He offers these tools in workshop format for organizations, with individualized follow-up for leaders and key individuals.
Exceptional leadership skills are based on simple but subtle mental strategies that change your qualities of presence and positively impact those around you. The ability to connect effectively and authentically with others, the ability to hold a leadership role in a way that builds the confidence of your team, the power to hold a room in a way that inspires—these are skills that exceptional leaders possess but often cannot explain or teach to others. Glenn’s work goes behind the thinking mind, and shows how to easily access and use the invisible factors that power high level leadership skills.
Glenn’s work in whole person approaches to psychology includes founding and chairing a PhD program in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, CA, which is a rigorous, research-based doctoral degree. He also serves as Main Editor for one of the major scholarly journals oriented toward whole person psychology, the International Journal of Transpersonal Studies.
Clients and students find Glenn’s leadership skill tools to be highly effective, and he is working with whole person neuroscience research in order to understand the brain and body mechanisms behind these techniques, so these breakthroughs can serve the broader field of psychology as well as in leadership applications. He is CEO and co-founder, with Michaela Aizer, of Attention Strategies, a 501(c)3 nonprofit foundation dedicated to researching and disseminating effective attentional strategies for leadership in business, and education.
