Courageous action is everyone's business – Mac Macartney
Mac is an international speaker, writer and change-maker. He is also the founder of the leadership-based social enterprise, Embercombe. Over a period of twenty years Mac was mentored by a group of indigenous elders. During this training and ever since, he has attempted to bring two worlds together – an ancient world-view that emphasises relationship, interdependence, and reverence for life with the significant challenges and opportunities of the 21st Century.
"This is a time when we need to be our own self leaders, of course we listen to others and discern what is good advice, but really truly we are asked to be our own self leaders. People of integrity, of love and compassion and gentleness, but with fierceness as well. Fierceness to live and fierceness to bring our gifts, for that is the only thing you have to bring."
"Resolutely set yourself to the discovery of your gift. Entertain the possibility that you have a profound gift, and the world is calling and calling and calling for you to bring it forward."

Mac braids together beauty, wildness, activism and the yearning pulse all humans have for a meaningful life into a compelling narrative. He invites us to become Peace Chiefs – warriors of the open heart. People pledged to the twin trail of authentic leadership – the inner trail of self-unfolding, healing and growing; the outer trail of action and effect in the world. As the Hopi Nation elders announced, “We are the people we have been waiting for.”
