WOLF WISDOM WOrkSHOP

Reclaiming the success skills we learned from
our ancient ally, the wolf.

Our partnership with the apex predator, the wolf began 35,000 years ago and coincided with what is known as our cognitive revolution. This transformation point in human history was when we began innovating, hunting and becoming sustainably successful. What we learned from the wolves was a complete culture upgrade that continues to operate today in the highest performing sports franchises, military units and work teams.

Taught by anthropologist and renowned leadership and culture development coach Philip Folsom, the Wolf Wisdom Masterclass explores the ancient lessons of the wolves and how we can still apply it to the challenges of today with profound results. This knowledge enables us to skillfully and successfully build an aligned culture of shared missions, visions and values, how to create super collaborative and resilient teams and how to navigate the conflict of accountability, innovation and decision-making successfully.

This profound and engaging live workshop will change the course of every aspect of your life and career and enable you to engage successfully with the challenges of conflict resolution, innovation, giving effective feedback and accountability.

  • “As ed chair of the Bel Air YPO chapter, I started our year with Philip and his unbelievably special Wolf Wisdom program. Any YPO group is composed of experienced business leaders and ambitious professionals especially hungry for ways to improve ourselves. Philip's workshop on the core tenants of kinship systems and honor-based cultures brought our group together and set the perfect foundation for what we would come to see in ourselves and each other the rest of the time we had with them. Working with Philip offers a transformative experience for individuals and teams alike. He is a dynamic presenter who captivates audiences and always leaves individuals inspired and equipped for meaningful change. I look forward to the next time we work with him!"

    Jennifer van Dijk, Ed Chair, YPO Bel Air Chapter, CEO, Superplastic

  • “WE WORKED WITH PHILIP TO INTEGRATE HIS TRIBE PROGRAM AND CULTURE DEVELOPMENT PIECE INTO OUR THREE DAY LEADERSHIP RETREAT. HIS WORK WAS VITAL IN CREATING TEAM TRUST AND COHESION AND TO ALIGN OUR BUSINESS GOALS FOR THE YEAR. PHILIP’S LEADERSHIP AND STRUCTURED REFLECTIONS CHALLENGED THE TEAM TO THINK DEEPLY ABOUT OUR DEFAULT BEHAVIORS AND ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES. PHILIP’S EXPERTISE AND COMFORT FACILITATING THE GROUP CREATED AN ATMOSPHERE OF TRUST AND EMOTIONAL SAFETY THAT HELPED OUR LEADERS OPEN UP TO EACH OTHER WHILE HAVE A LOT OF FUN. A PERFECT ANTIDOTE TO THE CORPORATE MEETINGS!”

    Catherine McKay, Shell Aviation

  • “PHILIP, THIS WORKSHOP ROCKED THE HOUSE AND THE WOLVES WERE A TREMENDOUS HIT. THANKS FOR BEING THE BEST PART OF THE RETREAT. YOUR TEACHINGS INSPIRE US AND GUIDE US TO BEING HAPPIER AND MORE FUNCTIONAL HUMANS AT WORK AND HOME!”

    Andy Walshe, Director of Red Bull High Performance Department

  • “I HAVE WORKED WITH PHILIP INDIVIDUALLY, AND I BROUGHT MY LEADERSHIP TEAM TO HIM FOR TRAINING. FEW INDIVIDUALS COMBINE THE TRAITS, SKILLS, AND INSIGHTS THAT ARE PRESENT IN PHILIP. HE IS TRULY SPECIAL. WHEN I INTRODUCED HIM TO MY TEAM, I SAID “PHILIP HAS EYES TO SEE, AND HE TRULY SEES.” MANY OF US MOVE THROUGH LIFE WITH EYES, BUT NEVER SEEING. SOME, LIKE PHILIP, CAN SEE BEYOND THE SUPERFICIAL AND THE TEMPORAL. THIS UNCANNY ABILITY PROVIDES HIM INSIGHTS INTO TEAMS, CULTURES, AND INDIVIDUALS. HE ALSO BROUGHT WITH HIM AN INCREDIBLE TEAM OF TRAINERS, AND EVERY ONE OF THEM LEFT AN IMPRINT ON US. TEAM DYNAMIC, CULTURE, AND MISSION CENTRALITY ARE KEYS TO SUCCESS; PHILIP UNDERSTANDS THIS. HE CAN BUILD THESE IN TEAMS, AND HE CAN FINE TUNE THEM. I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL.”

    Phil PhillipsSenior Vice President for Administration and Chief Administrative Officer at Pepperdine University
