"Becoming a leader is synonymous with becoming yourself.
It is precisely that simple, and it is also that difficult."
Welcome from the Founders
Welcome to the Wright Graduate Institute for the Realization of Human Potential.
If you have landed on this page, you probably sense that you—and others you encounter—are capable of more than you have previously achieved or even dreamt possible. The Wright Graduate Institute exists to provide students with the best support possible to be more fulfilled, conscious, loving, and effective as they pursue their highest vision.
Our curriculum integrates the legacies of Adlerian, developmental, and existential psychology and philosophy into a coherent, proven system that helps our students create great lives. Graduates of our M.A., Ph.D. and Ed.D. programs know themselves better, experience more satisfaction, and are more effective and powerful in all areas of life.
We live in a world right now that’s in trouble. Poverty, hunger, global warming, deforestation, and genocide threaten our population. Our rain forests are being destroyed and entire species are becoming extinct. We are using up the resources of the earth.
We believe that the way to bring about organizational and societal change is to transform the individual. We look at the evolution of humanity in terms of a 200-year vision: each of us is meant to take the baton as far as we can in this lifetime and pass on a legacy of learning and growing to future generations. To that end, we have created a community of teachers and learners who have transformed their lives, who are humble enough to know that they have a long way to go, who continue to learn and grow, and who are invested in supporting one another in reaching their visions.
This is a place where the roots of traditional psychology and philosophy are honored and respected. A degree from the Wright Graduate Institute signifies broad and deep understanding of these roots, contribution to the advancement of the field of Human Development, and a demonstrated ability to apply that understanding and experience in a lifetime of service.
Welcome to the journey of becoming your next, most radiant self and helping others do the same. Please let this site serve as a guide to the support the Wright Graduate Institute can provide along the way.
