The Accompanying Servant-Leader: Facilitating Change That Builds Engaged Partnerships
Get PDFMany of us want to make a difference in our communities, and in our personal and professional lives. We want to be leaders, bringing change to a world that seems increasingly hungry for transformation. However, one doesn t need to look very far to see examples of those leaders with good intentions, both home and abroad, who get in the way of true change (Ellerman, 2006; Moyo, 2009). Often as not, the source of failure is overemphasizing tangible results while underemphasizing process. If we are to make a sustainable difference, we must focus on accompaniment more than accomplishment

Human Rights From Its Origins to the Twenty-First Century: A Journey Through Empathy, Love, the Will to Power, and the Will to Meaning
Get PDFWhat is servant-leadership? And what is the connection between this philosophy and set of practices with human rights design, implementation and defense? According to the Robert K. Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership s website, we are talking about a philosophy and set of practices with the aim of enriching the lives of individuals, building better organizations and ultimately creating a more just and caring world. With regards to human rights, we have a variety of definitions, but basically we understand them by the respect for the individual, the assumption that each person is a moral and rational being who deserves to be treated with dignity. A connection between both terms can be established when the servant-leadership approach tries to enrich the lives of individuals and to create more just and caring world, just as the human rights philosophy which aims to empower every single human being and to build a fairer and more equal society at a global level
Thriving – The “All In” Mindset First Comes the Test, and Then Comes the Lesson
Get PDFIt is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat
Christ and the Perfection of Creation in Schleiermacher\u27s Dogmatic Theology
Get PDFTo many of his critics, Schleiermacher’s Christology signals an explicit weakness in his theological system, as his emphasis on religious feeling and subjectivity seems to undermine any claims of the distinctive revelatory or supernatural character of Jesus Christ. This essay by contrast underscores both the originality Schleiermacher’s understanding of Christ in history and its centrality to his overall thought by attending to the subtle theme of the “supernatural-becoming-natural” in his Glaubenslehre and Christliche Sittenlehre. Here the appearance of Christ yields a transformative influence that operates within natural and historical processes, inaugurating the reign of God that does not abolish the natural world but draws creation to its completed perfection
