Leadership and Faith

A Life-Changing Forum - REGISTERBrochure

Why this course?
This forum for presidents, CEOs and leaders of organizations, will run for one week (June 24 to 30, 2012) at Trumau Castle. Leaders will gather and participate in intensive discussion and deliberation in pursuit of virtue and wisdom, based on reading the great works of the West.

Excellent leadership is essential to navigate businesses and organizations successfully in times of international economic challenges and opportunities. Continual institutional and organizational improvements and course adjustments are indispensable: it is individual leaders who are responsible for the decisions and actions that guide and make the difference between thriving, surviving, or going out of business. The human person is at the heart of business and organizational excellence. Catholic Christians can rely on the particularly rich resources in the philosophical, theological and psychological traditions that guide and inspire leaders in pursuit of excellence.

The Third Annual Leadership Forum, “Leadership and Faith”, provides an opportunity for business and organizational leaders to develop themselves and form their minds by delving into classical sources with other leaders from around the world. Key, original texts about character development, responsibility, the vocation to work, good authority, communication and leadership will be read in depth and discussed in the context of a deliberative leadership experience. Practice-orientated testimonies by proven leaders, living out their faith at work, will connect these sources of wisdom to the realities of today.

Who should attend?
The Leadership Forum is meant for presidents, CEOs and other organizational leaders who wish to positively influence their organizations and society as a whole. Participants have a critical mind that is constantly seeking ways to integrate their faith with the responsibilities and decisions that come with leadership positions. They are ready to reflect on their experience as leaders in light of the writings of the most profound minds of the past and present.

What will you take home?
After this week-long program, you will take home: (1) renewed inspiration through a deeper understanding of the sources of Christian thought and their practical relevance for you and your organization today; (2) a broadening of your horizon in the way you look at character, work and leadership (3) a network of international business/organizational leaders that will continue to bear fruit in the years to come and (4) Certification that you participated in the course.
