While IQ and technical skills are important, it is emotional intelligence that lies at the heart of leadership, especially Christian Leadership.

Self-Awareness, Self-Regulation, Motivation, Empathy and Social Skill enable people to model their service and leadership on that of Jesus.

Mastery of Emotional Intelligence enables one to move from:

Hurt - Healing

Anger - Forgiveness

Pessimism - Optimism

Fixed mindsets - Flexible mindsets

By developing emotional intelligence we are able to control and then sculpt our inner selves.

This inservice day is ideal for those involved in Religious Education and Pastoral Care. The day gives emphasis to personal growth with exercises, readings and reflections designed to promote knowledge of oneself and others within the context of the Christian Community and specifically, Christian Leadership.
