In the Dark

Authentic dialogue. Limitless Innovation.

In The Dark

Have you ever held back your thoughts in a meeting? Felt unheard? Stayed in the status quo? In today’s world, authentic leadership, team cohesion, and a sense of belonging are more critical than ever.
The In the Dark Methodology is an immersive experiential framework designed to unlock authentic leadership, deepen trust, and spark innovation. Developed by global leadership expert Sara Minkara, In the Dark guides participants in a blindfolded activity—not to simulate blindness, but to strip away the visual cues that often shape how we lead, interact, and assume. What emerges is a space for difficult conversations, genuine connections, authentic leadership, and innovation.
