Who Is It For?
This event is ideal for leaders in any sphere and sector. That includes business, church, public service and non-profit. If you want to reignite your passion, clarify your purpose and upgrade your leadership skills, this event is for you.
In this strange new world, many of us find ourselves in need of realignment, renewal and reinvention. The world in which we live and lead is full of unique challenges and opportunities. The purpose of this event is to bring leaders together to share, worship and prayerfully evaluate the content of our leadership tool box. We’ll look at what we still need to develop, in order to face the future with courage. We’ll provide a safe environment for deep conversations and reflective time around the issues of spiritual formation, character building and leadership.
