CBK Board of Directors

Dr. Curt Thompson

Founder/Board Member

The Center for Being Known exists to reflect what becomes when the mind - our minds - move toward greater integration: or, as Jesus would say in Matthew's Gospel, that we are becoming more perfect, more whole, even as our Father in heaven is also perfectly whole. Who we are best able to be “emerges” as we encounter Jesus and others in community.

Neal Smith

Board Chair

Since Curt starting talking about this interpersonal biology stuff 15 years ago, I have been drawn not only to the power of the ideas but to the fact that it is clearly his vocation. As his friend and someone who loves a big idea, I want to do all I can to activate this movement of people to fulfilling lives.

Derek McNeil

Board Member

For Jesus, self-actualization was never the goal of the quest; the true end of Jesus’ wilderness transformation was only realized in the new life he brought to others, the life he continues to spark in us.

Janey Nodeen

Board Member

I was struck immediately by the power of what Curt teaches and how it is relevant in all aspects of life. I invited him to come run a class for my company. That was many years ago now, but my employees still apply what they learned and refer to it as a positive growth experience.

I am a member of CBK’s board to be a part of a community that lives life abundantly and that repairs, restores, and transforms to create opportunities for others to do the same.

CBK represents the type of work that needs to happen for families and communities to flourish. There is evidence everywhere that we are at a moment in human history where connectivity to self and one another are at extreme lows. CBK is an example of the pathways that must emerge for human connection to allow us to form the kind of communities that can address today's greatest challenges. I hope the work of CBK accelerates all kinds of movements of knowing and being known.
