The Fire Circle brings together Elders from First Nations and other wisdom traditions with business leaders around the world.
By listening to great teachers from First Nations and other wisdom traditions, we can unlock the potential of our own relationship with Earth. This connection between Nature, business and spirituality allows each of us to contribute to the global economic transition that is transforming the ways we live and work. Like drops of rain forming a stream, our individual and organisational actions support our planet's regeneration.
Experiences
Universities & Business Schools
We believe that there’s a gap in western business and leadership education – the voices of Indigenous Elders and Nature are missing. Through our skills in facilitating intercultural conversations, we can help business schools and universities to connect with Indigenous Elders in culturally-safe and respectful ways that build ongoing, meaningful relationships. This powerful work opens up new ways of understanding systems change, circular economies and the regeneration movement.
Examples of past collaborations:
Regenerative Economics – Saïd Business School at Oxford University. Years 2021 – 2025

Corporate Workshops & Retreats
Decision-makers are facing significant obstacles as they consider the role of businesses in addressing social and environmental issues. Western culture has taught us to see silos instead of interrelationships, which impedes our corporate responsibility.
Drawing on our team’s experience in purpose-driven business and our Elders’ knowledge and wisdom, we can offer transformational leadership experiences for pioneering businesses and organisations.

Talks & Conferences
Celebrating and elevating Indigenous Ecological Knowledge in mainstream forums exposes leaders to practical examples that often remain hidden or obscure. This has proven to unlock new insights in corporate social responsibility and systems change.
We’re in a unique position to facilitate partnerships and engagement with and by Fire Circle Elders and other culture carriers, so that your event on climate change, circular economy or urban futures can be as inclusive and progressive as possible.

Short Courses
At the Fire Circle, we believe in supporting peoples’ inner and outer growth as part of the global regeneration movement. Working with Elders from Indigenous and diverse cultures, we regularly facilitate workshop mini-series and short courses.
Two of our most popular examples include the Woven Way which is a practical 8-week course for emerging global leaders to bring new ideas into the world in service of a more regenerative and flourishing future and Leading with Wholeness, a 3-week series, which explores letting go of outdated habits and ways of being by embracing Indigenous and Western knowledge systems for a more integrated state that accepts and celebrates the spiritual, scientific, mystical, and mundane.

Seasonal Events
We have a history of running special online events that align with Equinoxes and Solstices, featuring different Elders from Indigenous, Eastern and Western traditions. These serve as an ideal introductory experience for newcomers and a way for our diverse community of emerging and established leaders from around the world to stay connected.
