KATHLEEN HALL, attorney, mediator and workplace investigator, has more than thirty years experience in human resource management, law and employee/labor relations. Kathleen claims she had the good fortune of reaching adulthood during the cauldron of the 1960s. Conflict over women's rights, civil rights, race relations and U.S. military interventions in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, also provoked the development of important diversity initiatives. A perennial student of behavior and advocate of collaborative systems, Kathleen's work has focused on the power of diversity to build relationships and transform organizations. Mystic, Poet and Writer: When Kathleen's father died three days before her fifth birthday, she began to experience a connection to the mystical nature of the universe that would set the course for her life. Her father's small library included books by Plato, Spinoza, Nietzsche, Shakespeare and Walt Whitman. Reading these great works and a near-death experience at fourteen inspired her to explore the esoteric and begin writing. In her twenties, Kathleen was invited to join a group of mediums as a novitiate where she spent two years studying this psychic phenomenon. Now, in the third trimester of her life, she is committed to making a contribution to understanding the spiritual and co-creative nature of human relationships. An exciting and transformative playground! BONNER HARDEGREE, entrepreneur, executive and community Leader, has over 40 years experience in executive management positions in corporate settings and on community boards. Responsible for the performance and morale of divergent groups, Bonner relied on communication and collaboration to develop emerging organizations and improve understanding. Contemplative, Explorer, Shaman: In 2005, Bonner experienced a spiritual awakening that altered the course of his life. He returned to an earlier interest in ancient and indigenous people and began a pilgrimage to explore these cultures, with a focus on the concepts of stewardship, order, balance and harmony. Traveling the Nile and the Amazon, through jungles and the high Andes, and in "walk abouts" in North America's mountains and plains, he gained new perspectives and insights about the history and evolution of humanity. Today, Bonner is working with others to create a dialogue between the dominant and indigenous cultures in Utah, in an effort to preserve core spiritual knowledge, maintain sacred spaces and improve understanding.
