Abstract
2020 was replete with complex leadership lessons. Multi-level societal experiences and ethical issues emerged with unprecedented speed. The global health pandemic known as COVID-19 was followed by the racial awakening – a response to the underlying pandemic of systemic racism. Amid this chaos, there was a weekly gathering throughout 2020 with the intention of creating a safe space for group reflection, dialogue, ethical inquiries and support. An opportunity for a PAUSE was created, informed in part by the work of Otto Scharmer. Leadership roles became an object of inquiry in congruence with their humanity. The method of convening, Circle, framed the support for the engagement and inquiry processes. This article describes how a group of professionals examined their leadership and sought to apply learnings while supporting one another – an adaptive leadership response that changed and strengthened their ethical leadership capacity.
