Strategy for Success

February 19, 2013 By

Learning and implementing the key principles of Emotionally Healthy Leadership can be one of the most strategic steps you can take as a leader. Not too sure if this conference is for you?

Listen to Scott Cochrane, Executive Director of The Leadership Centre Willow Creek Canada speak about how this training affected him as a leader.

He remarked, “Bill Hybels talks about the need for leaders to move people or organizations ‘from here to there’; but every leader will, at some point, feel ‘stuck’ along the way. Pete Scazzero’s Emotionally  Healthy Leadership Conference gives leaders the tools to help figure out how to get things ‘unstuck’.”

More Emotionally Healthy Leadership Events for 2013!

January 15, 2013 By

We are excited to announce that  we will be offering 2 more Emotionally Healthy Leadership Events in Canada on April 9th and 11th, 2013! As the demands of culture and ministry life become busier and more complex – the message and key skills of Emotionally Healthy Leadership  are becoming even more relevant.

Hundreds of leaders attended the events in 2012. 98% of the guests said that they would highly recommend it to a friend and other leaders.

Here’s some of the amazing feedback:

  • Learning about and creating my own genogram had an impact. It helped me to realize how much transformation has taken place in me, but also see areas where I still need to grow. It was also interesting as I began to think of it in relation to the leadership team of the church where I serve and some of the challenges that we need to overcome by the power of God.
  • I would highly recommend the conference – very thought provoking and instructive.
  • This training day provides a tool kit among many for producing healthier people, leaders and churches.
  • You can’t change what you are unaware of.  An event like this is a great place to get perspective on any hidden areas.
  • I wish our whole Ministry Team and Elders were there!
Join Pete Scazzero live for this  day of learning, training and skills development.
Don’t miss your chance to invest in your own leadership  as well as those of your ministry team. You will learn and implement skills that can transform the way you do ministry.

Guest Post – Cheryl Molenaar: From Awareness to Impact

May 17, 2012 By

The following is a guest post from Willow Creek Canada staffer, Cheryl Molenaar. She recently attended the Emotionally Healthy Leadership Conference. This is her remarkable story of moving from awareness to impact:

My name is Cheryl Molenaar, and I’ve been on staff at the Leadership Center Willow Creek Canada for 5 years. As well, I’ve been privileged to be a staff member of a church plant and serve in various areas of leadership. I’ve also recently been certified as a professional coach.

As a coach, I am always excited about learning that inspires action, and my focus is always about finding ways to build and grow, rather than focusing on what is not working.

As a leader, wife, and mother, the topic of Emotionally Healthy Spirituality is very exciting for me, as I have seen how following these steps can radically strengthen me.  Emotional health is not only about us and our relationships; it positively impacts our image of God and our hearing of God and discerning his will. These simple principles are strategic in keeping leaders strong for the long haul.

Recently I had the privilege of visiting New Life Church in Queens New York and participating in the Emotionally Healthy Leadership Conference.  I was able to represent Willow Creek Canada and to take in some advanced learning in preparation for our Emotionally Healthy Leadership Conferences being hosted at Mississauga and Calgary.

It was an honor to gather with hundreds of leaders representing 10 different nations. Many of these leaders have been implementing the skills of Emotionally Healthy Spirituality (EHS) for years.

After 3 days of training and one-one coaching, I walked away with skills that I know will create a significant impact in my life, my relationships and my leadership. Now the choice was mine –  to move it from awareness  to impact.

After hearing many incredible stories of impact from leaders all over the world, my husband and I decided that we wanted to implement the Community Temperature Reading Skills into our lives immediately. Based on our one-on-one interviews with various EHS experts, we knew that this would be a worthwhile investment.

The purpose of a Community Temperature Reading is to increase awareness within yourself of your God-given value and to build healthy relationships with others. It’s a simple 5 step process that if used daily, creates a structure for healthy communication.

Unhealthy communication can create the following unwanted results:

  • Criticism
  • Contempt
  • Defensiveness
  • Stone wall

How often do you face these unwanted results?

What if you could learn the skills to create a different outcome?

How much time could you save in “conflict resolution” type meetings if you invested just 10 minutes a day to an emotionally healthy communication skill?

Every day, leaders are required to communicate important information. How we present it, can make or break the outcome. Leaders are learners and skills transform us. They keep us sharp, bring new insights, ideas and help move us forward. We are attracted to growth.

Join The Leadership Centre Willow Creek Canada for a fantastic opportunity to invest in your leadership skills. Register for the Emotionally Healthy Leadership Conference in Calgary and Mississauga – with Peter Scazzero LIVE.

As goes the leader, so goes the church.

 

Pete Scazzero learned this first hand.

 

He learned the hard way, that you can’t be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature. Eventually God awakened him to a biblical integration of emotional health, his relationship with Jesus and the classic practices of contemplative spirituality. And it created nothing short of a spiritual revolution. A revolution that reached so far beneath the surface that he and his church were utterly transformed.

Pete Scazzero says:

The overall health of any church or ministry depends primarily on the emotional and spiritual health of its leadership. In fact, the key to successful spiritual leadership has much more to do with the leaders internal life than with the leader’s expertise, gifts, or experience.

Barna Group recently reported that creating a healthy culture is pivotal. Here is some of their findings:

A mark of effective leaders is the ability to craft the parameters of a group’s culture through specific leadership practices. Among the leadership behaviours described as central toward generating a healthy culture were hiring emotionally and spiritually healthy individuals. 

Our goal is to help you continue to be an effective leader.

Make the investment and take a day away with Pete Scazzero, live, to learn biblical and practical principles that will enhance your ability to lead effectively.

Your life, family, leadership and church depends upon it.

Register soon to receive the best rates on this remarkable one day event.
