Aspen Executive Seminar
For almost 60 years, the Aspen Executive Seminar on Leadership, Values, and the Good Society has challenged leaders in every field to think more critically and deeply. This seminar is a unique opportunity to step away from the demands of the present and reflect with other leaders in moderated, text-based Socratic dialogue on the concept of a good and just society: What is it? How does it become a reality? What is our role in making it happen? The setting in Aspen, Colorado is ideal for rejuvenation of the mind, body, and spirit of participants who emerge personally renewed and professionally focused.

Cost to attend in 2017: $10,950, inclusive of lodging, meals, group events, and materials (cancellation policy). Airfare is not included; early flight booking is strongly recommended. Limited financial assistance, typically not exceeding 50% of the fee, is available on a competitive basis for those who qualify.
The Aspen Institute reserves the right to cancel a program at any time for any reason. In the unlikely event of a course cancellation, paid program fees will be refunded, but the Institute is not responsible for any travel or other related expenses accrued by the program registrant.
