Self Differentiated Leadership & Relationships - Akron, OH area 


This training is open to anyone on a path of self-realization.

What’s it all about?   The workshop playfully approaches and takes seriously the times that we live in and the challenges of thinking more clearly about families, congregations, and leadership.  The time offers resources and training that are based on a view of life that looks at communities as living systems that incorporate thinking, feeling, responsibility, and purpose.  

The purpose of the workshop is to:
  • Gain a renewed sense of purpose and mission
  • Cultivate strong leadership capacities to challenge ourself and a congregation
  • Learn how to develop healthier patterns of living together in families and community
  • Learn to focus on strength, resources and options for the future
  • Boost confidence
  • Learn how to lead with calm and thoughtfulness
  • Reflect systemically about relationships
  • Move us toward a healthier response to challenges

Following are some tenets of leaders in healthy organizations,

Persons follow an inner compass. They are guided by their own clear and coherent beliefs, principles and life goals.

Persons take responsibility for self. They are aware of their own feelings, and neither blame others for them nor require others to share those feelings. They ask themselves regularly “What can I learn from this situation?”

Persons respond to anxiety. They anticipate and recognize heightened anxiety (due to change, loss, crisis, etc.) and accept periods of tension as they address issues and complete tasks.

Persons are challenged. They allow persons to work through times of stress or pain. They tolerate the discomfort that can go along with the stresses and strains of both significant mission and individual growth.

Persons respect boundaries. They recognize and respect where one person ends and another begins. Agreed upon roles, structures and procedures are respected. Individual thoughts and feelings are respected. There is little pressure to “Go Along” with the group.

Persons stay in contact. They resist tendencies to distance or cut off from those with whom there is disagreement. They work together for a sufficient amount of time to maintain relationships.
