Grounded in Spirit: Leadership for the 21st Century
January
The first residential considers the structures and processes of 21st-century decision-making (both individual and corporate) and explores how discernment practices can be integrated into decision-making. Insights from the fields of spirituality, management, and leadership studies will be combined to examine decision-making and discernment in various settings.
Contemplative Leadership for Change
June
The second residential will help participants consider how they adapt to change. Through an experiential, interactive process, participants will examine the continuity and change in their own lives and in the lives of the groups they lead, and learn how to identify and overcome blocks that prevent them from achieving their goals.
The 6 R’s of Sanctuary
February
The third residential focuses on how leadership efficacy is enhanced as leaders intentionally take time apart from their leadership context to engage in spiritual practices. This residential will share learning gained from leadership, theology, and spirituality studies as a means to teach participants a spiritually connected and grounded way of leadership.
Putting it All Together
June
The final residential will help participants develop a “Rule of Life” plan that allows them to fully integrate their learning and experiences into their leadership contexts.
Taster Sessions
Come experience a "taste" of the Soul of Leadership programme, which will begin a new cohort at the Ammerdown Centre in January. Our next taster session is on Thursday 5th June from 3 pm - 5 pm. The event is free and open to the public.
