TLS 102 | Heart of the Leader | Cultivating a Spiritually Healthy Heart
Because we believe that successful leadership begins on the inside, this 10-week course intentionally focuses on a leader’s heart motivation, our “why” first. Defining our “why” is not easy. It requires soul-searching, understanding one’s core life values, and a desire for a destination that’s much more than pure profit or personal success. This course will explore critical questions every leader must answer, the differences between a spiritually healthy and an unhealthy heart, and how understanding and embracing our identity, along with accurate self-awareness, will make us much more effective influencers. The course is an elective option for the CCNL Program and earns 20 points.
