One of the more innovative teachers of Buddhism today, Ken McLeod is known for his ability to explain deep and subtle teachings in clear and simple language. "He distills the nature and purpose of Buddhism to make it accessible for any newcomer without dumbing it down," writes Phil Catalfo, Yoga Journal, July 2001, in his review of Ken's first book Wake Up to Your Life. Born in England in 1948, Ken grew up in Canada and journeyed overland to India (in large part by bicycle) in 1969-70. There he met his principal teacher, Kalu Rinpoche and served as his interpreter on Kalu Rinpoche's first two teaching tours in North America. After Ken completed two three-year retreats, he was appointed to teach in Los Angeles. In 1990, Ken established Unfettered Mind where he continues to teach today. In 1996, Ken roiled the Buddhist world with his model of one-on-one consultations on Buddhist practice. His approach is now regarded as a viable model for Buddhist teachers in the West. Ken also conducts teacher training programs and mentors a growing number of newer teachers. In 1999, Ken established a consulting practice focusing on executive coaching, team building and personal and organizational effectiveness. His particular focus is on the use of systems thinking to create organizational dynamics that naturally generate productive interactions within the organization. Ken has a graduate degree in mathematics from University of British Columbia (Canada), more than twenty years intensive training in Eastern disciplines (including Buddhism, tai chi and other martial arts), and over twenty years teaching and consulting experience. He is currently exploring the use of the internet for live interaction with students all over the globe, both in course settings and one-on-one meetings.
