Building Relationally Wise Leadership Skills
The Relationally Wise Leader
This two-hour seminar describes the relational challenges church, ministry and business leaders face today and describes how they can model and teach relational wisdom (biblical emotional intelligence), peacemaking and Christian mediation to inspire and equip their people to respond to life’s challenges in a way that strengthens relationships, reduces conflict, promotes reconciliation, builds unity, preserves marriages and reveals the transforming power of Jesus and his gospel. This seminar also introduces the PACE Program (resources for community outreach, evangelism and church growth) and provides risk management resources that reduce exposure to legal liability when carrying out pastoral ministry.
This seminar fulfills one of the required lessons for the RW Shepherd Certificate.
