Uniquely presented, this research follows the experience of ten participants in a six week, work/study program, Yoga and the Expressive Arts which was held at Hollyhock Education and Retreat Centre in B.C. Canada. Two program years are compared to explore the question: How can expressive arts-based learning build capacities to meet the demands of leading and working in complex, emergent work environments? Theories of learning, integral models (Wilber, 2000), leadership theory, complexity theory, mind-body research, and music/expressive arts research are referenced. Quantitative and qualitative data, and artifacts (i.e. poetry, mandalas, sketching, process art, collage) are analyzed. The research demonstrates that expressive arts-based learning can increase adaptive capacity, emotional and spiritual intelligence, creative leadership competencies, and presencing. Human resource professionals, consultants, and facilitators will gain insights into design considerations for leadership development programs, organizational change strategies, and innovation initiatives. Music/art therapists, and artists will discover new possibilities for partnering with organizations.
