The themes of the Retreat this year was Flourishing and the Science of Well-Being We drew on the work of Martin Seligman (Father of the Positive Psychology Movement), sharing his research in the Science of Well-Being, and from it creating the context of how we "Manage Self" to flourish as leaders and human beings, deepening our understanding and practices.

We have now renamed this event the HEADS SUMMIT! Due to the global pandemic, the 2020 Summit that was planned in Muscat, Oman, for May 1 - 2, 2020, was cancelled.
