Practical Applications
- By reflecting on one’s own leadership style, develop new skills based on the Bowen Theory: a non-anxious presence, identifying emotional dynamics in a congregation, avoiding we vs. they in conflict situations.
- Gain clarity about one’s own vision for the congregation, despite what Steinke calls the “ uproar” and “ disruptions of post-modern life.”
