A Catholic Vision for Leading Like Jesus Encounter is scheduled in Rockford, IL, on Friday, March 18, at the Radisson Hotel and Conference Center.
It joins a list of four Encounters scheduled in the Dubuque (IA) Archdiocese in the next three months.
The Encounter is the Yeshua Institute’s signature 1-day training experience to teach people how to be S3 Jesus-like Leaders at home, at work, in their parishes and in their communities.
“Leadership is an influence process,” says Yeshua Institute Director Owen Phelps. “Anytime we try to influence anyone else, they are acting as a leader. So all of us are leaders some of the time. Leadership is not a choice. Our only choice is what kind of leader we will be. In the Encounter people learn how to lead like the best leadership teacher and role model of all time – Jesus.”
With a rich mix of videos, large and small group discussion, self-discovery exercises and live presentations, the Encounter has drawn rave reviews from Catholics in all walks of life in six countries on three continents.
