The Leadership Institute seeks to provide a new framework from which professionals in the field of education can become more effective, dynamic, and well rounded leaders in their respective roles. Working to this end the Institute offers a wide variety of trainings and workshops designed to enhance and develop the skills and character of educational leaders to meet the challenges of the coming millennium. Our approach seeks to harmonize and integrate both the necessary life skills with the moral and ethical development necessary to be effective and dynamic leaders.
As leaders in the field of education all aspects of our character need to be well rounded and developed in order to earn, and maintain the respect, cooperation and support of our colleagues. Using the Leadership Institutes Character Development Model our trainings focus on six essential character traits; integrity/ truthfulness, vulnerability/humility, acceptance, compassion/ empathy, trust and service. These six basic trainings combined with the Life Skills Training (see Corporate Statement of Purpose) help foster the inner development of the individual while providing him or her with the necessary life skills to be an effective leader.
The Leadership Institute provides a basic training in each of these areas. Below is a brief description of the workshops summaries and goals and objectives of Character Development Training.
