“We are not living in an era of change, but a change of era.”

Pope Francis

Equipping today’s leaders for tomorrow’s church

In these 10 sessions, clergy and laity will learn side-by-side as we explore contemporary leadership practices integrated with scripture and the example set by Jesus and His followers: think Brené Brown, Simon Sinek and Stephen Covey meet Jesus, St Peter and St Paul.

Join us as we seek to build intentional leadership in our parishes and communities.

WHAT THE INTENSIVE COVERs:

“Be leaders wherever it behoves you to be. Leaders of thought, leaders of action, leaders of joy, leaders of hope, leaders of the construction of a better world.” – Pope Francis

“When we change our thinking, we change our lives.” – Stephen Covey

“Not finance. Not strategy. Not technology. It is teamwork that remains the ultimate competitive advantage, both because it is so powerful and so rare.” – Patrick Lencioni

“People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it.” – Simon Sinek

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast.– Peter Drucker

“Change cannot be put on people. The best way to instil change is to do it with them. Create it with them.” – Lisa Bodell

“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” – Proverbs 27:17

“Greatness is doable. Greatness is many, many individual feats, and each of them is doable.” – Angela Duckworth

“The most effective leaders are all alike in one crucial way: they all have a high degree of what has come to be known as emotional intelligence.” – Daniel Goleman

“Integrity is choosing courage over comfort… practicing your values, not just professing them.” – Brené Brown
