with Revd Charles Burgess
All leadership is demanding and burnout is familiar to those exercising leadership in all sorts of contexts. This a two day event which looks at staying fresh and faithful in our leadership roles based on a model for handling pressure, whilst exploring what drains and sustains us. The event will include exploring issues of call, expectations and discerning priorities. While clearly, participants will gain most value from attending both days, they are designed so that participants may attend either day one or day two only.
The second day will identify, and look at ways to address those expectations we place on ourselves as well as those others have of us. It will also identify some of the tough realities of leadership and explore the role played by spiritual disciplines, lifestyles and friendships, in building resilience.
