Conversations with Modern Stoicism is an interactive virtual gathering that provides an opportunity for Stoics around the world to connect, learn, and engage in meaningful dialogue with each other.
The events feature a presentation from a respected speaker followed by multiple rounds of audience conversations via the Breakout Rooms feature in Zoom.
The events are lively, engaging opportunities to collaborate with others as you pursue your journey into philosophical Stoicism.
In our next event, Diane Kalen-Suka will explore the growing interest in Stoicism and Servant Leadership as responses to societal fragmentation and declining empathy. She highlights the resurgence of these wisdom traditions in the context of modern struggles, emphasizing their shared commitment to ethical responsibility and the common good. Key ideas include the foundational virtues of justice, self-mastery, interconnectedness, and the expansion of care from individual to global levels.She draws on historical and philosophical references, including Robert Greenleaf’s vision of servant leadership and the Stoic principles of Zeno of Citium and Marcus Aurelius, to illustrate how these philosophies can inspire ethical leadership and societal renewal.
