Learn to manage leadership anxiety in your personal and professional life, using principles and practices from Bowen Systems Theory along with insights gleaned from the books Managing Leadership Anxiety and A Failure of Nerve. We’ll address where anxiety shows up in our lives and ministry settings, and how we might rethink our approaches for dealing with and diminishing anxiety in the future. Our time together will include small group discussions, a panel discussion, and several strategies for managing anxiety within yourself, among your leaders, and within your faith community. Participants will receive a list of tools and resources they can use and share with their leaders.
