Leadership Inspired by Ignatian Spirituality 2022

"Students throughout their education must leave their disturbing reality in this world into their lives, in such a way that they learn to feel it, to think critically, to help-suffer and to commit to it in a constructive way. They should learn to perceive, think, judge, choose and act in favor of the rights of others, especially those less advantaged and oppressed "(P. Kolvenbach SJ)

Next February, we will welcome the 6th edition of the Program "Leadership inspired by Ignasian spirituality". A training that aims to provide spaces, time and resources to reflect on one's life as a person with management responsibilities, and proposes actions to improve performance as a leader from an Ignatian perspective.

"It is important for good leadership to distinguish between the objective and the means, not to confuse, not to lose in the media. On the media we can have different opinions, but the important thing is to have the objectives clear, and not any means serves. Knowing how to distinguish until the means is very important to avoid losing time in absurd discussions "(P. Adolfo Nicolás SJ)
