STML 509 - Envisioning Leadership

This course provides a forum in which to explore the changing context for pastoral leaders and the implications for the practice of the art of leadership, within and beyond one’s organizational role. It addresses issues of “vocation” and “vision” in the face of unprecedented conditions and examines the formation of leadership in relationship to the growing complexity, diversity, and moral ambiguity in our cultural life. Among the issues explored are: the dynamics of formal and informal authority, the nature of “adaptive leadership,” and distinguishing self from role
