    Rick Warm Rick Warm is the director of the Center for Wisdom and Leadership. The crux of his work has centered on leadership and the development of wise leaders. For the last several years Rick has also focused on  wisdom in "second half of life," the midlife transition, and eldership. Rick has taught classes and run seminars and workshops on the topics of wisdom, spirituality and aging. He also  leads Elder Wisdom Circles.

The circles gather to learn from each other, encourage lifelong learning and growth, and discern how they can make a difference in the world – small or large. A major focus of eldership is “leadership in the second half of life” – distinct from leadership during our careers and working years.
    Rick has been an executive coach since 2005 and is also a leadership consultant. He facilitates leadership seminars and workshops, and has served as an adjunct professor of leadership at Northern Kentucky University. In addition, Rick has lived, worked, and studied for extended periods of time on five continents, giving him a strong global and intercultural perspective and facility in multiple languages.
