From Passion to Purpose: The Journey to Authentic Leadership

Description

How can I become an authentic leader? What are the personal skills and traits that I can nurture to inspire others, to become better versions of themselves? If these are questions you are asking, then this course will help you deepen the answers: Leadership is not an act; it is a way-of-living. In our daily encounters with people, we are constantly leading, whether poorly or excellently. A deepening selfawareness brings about the ordering of our lives in the continuing work of self-mastery. Authentic leadership is the ongoing alignment of our competence, character, and purpose. Thus it is not enough that we have jobs and careers; instead, we are called to transform our work into a personal mission. This transformation emerges from a heroic aspiration to make an impact in the world.
