"Practicing Contemplative Leadership" |
On Friday, February 16th, join us for a presentation by Patricia Speier, Executive Director of Seton Cove on the topic: Practicing Contemplative Leadership: Guideposts for the Journey.
Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have written, “All serious leadership starts from within and the quest for leadership, therefore, is first an inner quest to discover who you are.” But where are the maps and guideposts that will help us find the way on this journey into our hidden wholeness? The contemplative traditions of the world’s major wisdom traditions can be essential maps for this inner journey to transformative leadership.
Our mission is to elevate the role of leadership in the lives of the citizens of Central Texas; to focus on the vitality and necessity of regional leadership capital; and to serve others through the process of encouraging individuals to grow, prosper and make a significant difference through the practice of leadership skill. Patricia Speier, MA, MAR Executive Director is a spiritual director and teacher who specializes in the use of literature and writing for spiritual growth and ethical development. A graduate of the Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest, she has studied spirituality at the Pecos Benedictine Monastery in New Mexico. She received her Certificate of Completion in Spiritual Direction from the Benedictine Monastery of the Risen Christ in California.
