Level II Application
Pre-requisite: Values-Centered Leadership I Certificate
This course is open to all participants who successfully completed the Level I course. Inspiration for this Level II course comes from the DePaul University motto:
“I will show you the way of wisdom” (Proverbs 4:11)
. What is wisdom? How do we as leaders find "the way" to greater wisdom to deal with the complex challenges we face in our organizations today?
Consistent with our experiential and integrative approach, you will have weekly opportunities to assess
your own strengths and where you still need to grow in the areas covered. Each week also offers a “method practice” to help you put your learning into action and reflect on how that experience was helpful for you.
Those who successfully engage in all elements of the course will receive a certificate of participation.
Overall, I appreciated that this course continued to focus on the values behind the work each of us does in our own work environments, which goes beyond basic "leadership development" and instead gets at the heart of how leaders can be successful by tapping into this important element. I think this is an important reminder for our current and future leaders as we develop our businesses/organizations sustainably and ethically.
