Spring 2012 Faith-Based Leadership Certificate Program

Leading Change in Changing Times.

Change must occur for an organization to be healthy and relevant, but how do we react to change and remain relevant in a post-denominational, millennial world? How do we change our leadership styles as the organization changes? What is the role of clergy in change? This course will focus on the elements and tools to effectively lead a congregation through change. Special emphasis will be placed on supportive leadership models, handling conflict with grace, cultivating a non-anxious presence, diligent focus on mission and core values, change styles, and balancing the concern for others with the concern for one’s own well-being.
