Meet Your Instructors
Reframing Your Leadership Stories & Beliefs is a rare chance to hear Ari Weinzweig and Gareth Higgins co-teach the very work that brought them together three years ago and have formed the foundation of their life-long friendship. Ari's teachings about the power of beliefs meets Gareth's teachings about the power of story.
"The story we tell ourselves about our lives is the single most important factor in determining our happiness and the kind of life we will lead."
- Gareth Higgins
Gareth Higgins
Gareth Higgins is an author, storyteller, and activist who was born in Belfast during the Troubles in northern Ireland and now lives part-time in Asheville, North Carolina. He has a PhD in sociology and writes and speaks widely about the power of storytelling to shape and reshape our lives.
Gareth has decades of experience Ireland, the US, and elsewhere helping communities learn to nurture and share a better story, including peace-building and violence reduction and helping address long histories of conflict.
Gareth has written or co-authored nine books, co-founded multiple creativity/storytelling/activist festivals, and co-leads both The Porch Community and transformative immersion experiences in Ireland.
Ari Weinzweig
Ari Weinzweig, Co-founding Partner of the Zingerman's Community of Businesses, is a line cook turned CEO. He shares his learnings about positive business through his prolific writing. The latest book in his ongoing Guide to Good Leading series, The Power of Beliefs in Business takes a deep dive into Ari's research and philosophy on the importance and impact of beliefs in business.
Ari regularly travels across the country and world on behalf of Zingerman’s, teaching organizations and businesses about Zingerman’s approach to business management and leadership through keynotes and private training.
Somehow, Ari also finds time to be a voracious reader. His interests span across history and subject matter. Read any of his work to engage with the voices of others that inspire his thinking, too, including Gareth Higgins.
