Gerard Senehi bio

Gerard Senehi is driven by a passion for expanding what we consider possible. In this pursuit he divides his time between the profit and non-profit sectors.

In the profit world, Gerard is an entertainer who performs as a mentalist and uses his talent for creating mystery to provoke deeper questions and challenge fixed ways of thinking that shape our assumptions about reality. Gerard’s performances create an atmosphere of openness and possibility and he is often sought out to present at corporate board retreats, strategy meetings and conferences when companies are trying to break through previous limitations. In his career, Gerard very quickly reached the top of his field performing for the largest corporations, royalty and prominent people around the world. Gerard has been featured on numerous television shows internationally including the “Today Show” and “Ellen.” His success has allowed him to support his non-profit ventures, which have often drawn the interest of his clients.

In the non-profit world, Gerard is involved with different endeavors aimed at demonstrating the potentials and practical impact of the breakthrough understanding that culture evolves. According to this view, evolution is happening not only at the level of matter and biology – the physical world, but also at the level of culture – our shared values, worldviews and the ways we think & define meaning. This perspective makes it possible for us to take responsibility for the culture of the future. Inspired by this worldview, which has extraordinary implications for philanthropy and social change, Gerard is involved with the following initiatives:

  • He is founding an institute to support the vital role of cultural evolution in creating vision and direction for the future and a larger context for addressing some of the major problems we face.
  • He is a member of the Evolutionary Leaders, a group of 50 leading authors, lecturers, scientists and visionaries who share an understanding that consciousness and culture evolve. He helps to design and facilitate the annual conference of Evolutionary Leaders.
  • He is a founding member of EnlightenNext, an educational nonprofit foundation and cultural/spiritual movement that is defining the contours of a new human consciousness and culture.
  • He serves on the board of the Source of Synergy Foundation, which brings international social change leaders together in an action-oriented think tank.
  • He co-founded the Coalition for OneVoice — a collaborative of New York area social change leaders who are exploring the potential efficacy of a more unified approach to change.
  • Gerard is a member of the Evolutionary Leaders

    Gerard is a member of the Evolutionary Leaders, a group of authors, teachers, speakers, clergy, social scientists, and community activists who share an evolutionary worldview of change and are exploring its application.
