Acknowledgement of Elders

Showing appreciation is important in any relationship, and it’s especially important with mentors, leaders and elders who have invested time and effort into helping you grow both personally and professionally.

In a world that venerates the new, bright, and shiny, we can easily forget those with wisdom - our elders. Our elders may be past or present, they may have supported us in business, sports, life or spirituality.

It's time to write a new leadership story - to go back to what all first nations tribes around the world practice - celebrating and honouring elders. Take a moment to sing up the Steward Elders in your world by writing a gratitude letter to them about how they have inspired, mentored and supported you. Whether you use it to send to them or just do it to sing them up in your own way won’t matter, just thinking of them, remembering their deeds helps sing up their spirit soul and memory.

Join me and sing up and acknowledge the elders in your life as a force for good, for humanity and for the future. Create new conversations in your home or workplace through this practice, tell their story, tell your stories, tell your truth, share their wisdom and watch the ripples grow!
