Emerging Leaders Module 1

Every few years, Inter-Varsity offers a specialized training program for staff that they would like to invest in and could see moving into deeper levels of leadership within the organization. The program is called Emerging Leaders, and it takes place over 14 months, with a commitment to stay with the organization for an additional 18 months afterward and be open to the possibility of a job or role change.

Last spring, I was invited to join the newest cohort that would meet for the first time in February. I was honoured by the invitation and gladly accepted. The first module focused on spiritual development.  I appreciated the time getting to know staff from various parts of the organization and also to engage God in new ways through more unfamiliar spiritual disciplines.

The resources I received from this module have been super helpful to apply and try with my students and staff team.
