Pamela Hassett, Principal and Chief Coaching Officer for DnP Solutions, shared information on the importance of Parish Properties. Tim Jaques, Founder and CEO of Teaming Worldwide, then explored some of the challenges and benefits with thinking strategically. Tim walked the group through a number of exercises developed to allow participants to capture specific activities in which they engage, explore the importance and urgency of those activities, and then carve out time to focus on the most important activities (the “big rocks”). Finally, Tracy Solarek, Founder and Chief Inspirer of Optymum Potential, shared the results of our second Emotional Intelligence assessment. Results demonstrated that the average Emotional Intelligence score increased substantially over the past six months of the Institute for Pastoral Leaders. This underscores our belief that a trauma informed perspective is a critical component to becoming a strong leader, and we hope that the insights gained here will be valuable as you lead others in your Parish, School, and Community.
