Servant Leadership in Teams: Equips participants with personal and group practices that are foundational to building impactful servant leadership teams.
Methods Utilized
Participants gain insight into their own leadership philosophy by examining past and present servant leadership philosophies through the following methods:
- CliftonStrengths® Assessment

- Workbook
- Individual Reflection
- Small-Group Engagement Exercises

Sophia uses a Learning Circle Model for this program where the most essential ideas, “ah-ha!” moments, and best practices come from the interaction between participants themselves, which can’t be replicated in a make-up session.
