Kansas Leadership Center Grants
If you want to make progress on something you care about, grow your leadership skills, aid your congregation and the CCK in addressing the adaptive challenges we face then this training is for you. Your church will benefit most by sending teams of 3-4, one of whom is probably your pastor.
KLC trainings allow you to fully engage in four elements of optimized learning. It’s not enough to just learn these skills — KCL wants you to practice them in a supportive environment and leave with a plan. This program will help you lead more confidently and get better results by transforming how you approach tough problems.
The three programs are:
- When Everyone Leads: This is a one day training. Leadership is an activity, not a position. Everyone can lead. And when we see and seize our moments to lead, we make more progress on our most important challenges. Based on KLC’s bestselling book, When Everyone Leads, this six-hour course makes leadership radically accessible and inclusive, unleashing capacity for collective leadership in teams, organizations, coalitions and communities.
- Your Leadership Edge – This is a two day training. Your Leadership Edge is the foundational training that introduces core concepts in KLC’s powerful leadership framework. Discover new ways to communicate , solve problems and lead more effectively back in your context. Sharpen interpersonal skills, self-awareness and confidence with others. Your Leadership Edge helps you find, test and push to the edge of your comfort zone.
- Lead for Change – This is a three day training. Continue your learning with this advanced and immersive training. Lead for Change prepares you and your team to mobilize others to deal with tough problems and seize opportunities in any context. Deepen your skills and confidence to engage others to create or manage change. Energize others to deal with problems more effectively for lasting results.
These programs are for people who want to improve their leadership skills, to aid their congregations and the region in addressing the adaptive challenges we face. This training is intended to help you lead your congregation more effectively, more powerfully, to change lives and turn systems in healthy directions. This is not for everyone. It is hard, and you will have homework.
Plan to focus 90 days on the process: prework, the training and its application, beginning 21 days before your event.
After submitting the application and paying a $25 commitment fee, you will be contacted by a regional staff member with instructions on how to sign-up for KLC Sessions, arrange lodging, and receive required reading materials.
