The Senior Faith in Leadership Programme takes place over three 3-day residential modules, spanning the course of a year, totalling 9 days. The programme structure has been devised as a way of maximally realising the programme objectives within the time constraints of our participants' busy schedules.
St George's House
The SFLP takes place at St George's House, within the stunning precinct of Windsor Castle. St George's House offers a physical and intellectual space where a range of high level consultations on ethical and religious subjects take place under the overall patronage of the Duke of Edinburgh. It has a particular interest in addressing inter-faith issues and its present Warden, the Rev'd Dr Hueston Finlay, a former Chaplain to Magdalene College, Cambridge and a lecturer in the Faculty of Divinity is keen that the SFLP avails of the excellent and uniquely appropriate facilities of the House.
Programme Structure
Typically, participants will arrive at the host location in the afternoon of the first day of a Module and leave before supper on day three.
Participants will be given reading and assignments in between each of the three following Modules:
Module 1: Leadership Resources in the Three Traditions
Mon 15th - Wed 17th January 2024
Due to the Covid disruption, SFLP 2022 will be a combination of the completion of the paused SFLP 2020 programme whilst also allowing for a new intake of participants. To accommodate this module 1 of the programme which took place in 2020 will not be repeated, and Module 2 will be the first gathering of SFLP 2022.
Module 2: Leadership from the Inside-Out
Mon 4th - Wed 6th March 2024
This Module will be highly experiential, exploring participants' behaviours in groups, their approaches to leadership and conflict, and the concept of coaching as a way of dealing with problems.
The SFLP will use a method that is a combination of experience, study, application and reflection. Experience will come through participation with others around a series of tasks. Study will be ongoing throughout the Module. In all sessions, as theory and practice are integrated, perspective will be gained. What is learned will then be applied to participants' organisations, faith communities, areas of interest, and of course, themselves.
Module 3: Leadership, Communication and the Media
Tue 4th - Thur 6th June 2024In the final part of the programme, participants will practically develop their presentation, and communication styles within interviews with the press and in the media.
Module 3 will also offer participants the opportunity to reflect jointly on their journey together and determine ways in which their experiences on the programme may lead to future collaborative ventures among alumni.
