12. What Horses Can Teach Us About Leadership and Team Building With Jezey Wolf and Matt Wolf

Building Doors with Lauren Karan

Jezey and Matt are the co-founders of the Wolf Pack Health and Wellness. They are dedicated to helping people reconnect with the earth, each other and themselves.

The wellness ranch spread over 21 acres just west of Brisbane offers country escapes, NDIS respite stays, wellness events and private counselling and development. The ranch is a hub for peace, relaxation, enlightened moments, and optimised living.

• When covid hit, being in nature surrounded by animals made life easier for Jezey and her family. She believes reconnecting with nature could help people improve their mental health and wellbeing which led her to start the wellbeing clinic.
• Guests can connect with horses at her ranch. She says horses can teach us a lot about leadership and working as a team.

• Horses are known for their ability to work as a team. The alpha relies on other horses to feed her information to make critical decisions for the herd. According to Jezey, this demonstrates true leadership where it is not about being a boss and dictating everything but rather trusting the wisdom of the team.

• As horses can sense disunity within a group, it takes teamwork and a unified voice to command horses. Working with horses allows people to sharpen their ability to build a high performing team.

• For people living in the city, Jezey advises people to go to a park and take the time to consciously be in touch with nature.
