Winter 2016-2017 -- This course helps students to develop further skills for leading congregations and other faith-based institutions in a time of rapid, dis-continuous change. We will work together to create a learning community where we each develop self-awareness of one’s gifts, personality, and interpersonal style; learn to articulate our own theological framework for leadership, and develop skills for engaging in the reflective practice of leadership. Different models of leadership will be explored and critiqued in conversation with a variety of cultural and theological perspectives.
