• Healthy, Wealthy and Wise: Authentic Leadership and the 3rd American Century is Tyler's Master of Divinity Thesis (December 2011, Naropa University, 130 pages.) Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise makes the case that positive change for the long-term benefit of people and planet can be dramatically accelerated by citizen leaders: 1) applying an 'integral, whole systems, total return on investment' approach to addressing complex multi-faceted issues; 2) more fully leveraging the assets of the distributed 'communities movement' as a rich and under-tapped, trans-partisan resource for informing wise investment strategies (Capitalism 3.0) and healthier public policy (Democracy 3.0); and, 3) cultivating their 'contemplative intelligence' and the exercise of authentic leadership -- so as to bring the presence, compassion, and invitation required to effect and sustain meaningful outcomes.
