Description of Offering
The Soul of Leadership is a program that began in 2012 in Boston with Margaret Benefiel, Executive Director of the Shalem Institute. The Soul of Leadership is designed for leaders from various sectors (businesses, non-profits, churches, etc.).
The Soul of Leadership recognizes that leaders today face particularly difficult challenges. The commitment to inspire others while also increasing productivity and balancing the needs of the organization can leave leaders feeling depleted. Long hours and countless demands often result in a deep need for renewal.
This 18-month program helps leaders integrate spiritual heart practices with leadership realities in order to more truly embody their vocational path. Through individual and communal activities, participants engage in a variety of contemplative practices, while learning strategies to address some of their most pressing leadership challenges.
The Soul of Leadership includes four residencies, each featuring a different leadership focus, supplemented by reading, reflection and spiritual companionship. If you are interested in learning more about The Soul of Leadership, please visit the Shalem Institute's website.
Everything at Well Being Retreat Center supports health and wellness: wellness of body, wellness of mind, and, of course, wellness of spirit.
Well Being Retreat Center is located on 160 acres in rural, scenic Northeast Tennessee surrounded by two miles of the Powell River. The land is quiet enough that you can hear a deer rustling from across the river, or an owl calling from a mile away, or hear the breeze rustling the autumn leaves. There is a choice of Accommodations. Meals are fresh, flavorful, gluten-free and healthy.
Well Being Retreat Center is steeped in Nature with distant mountain views and quiet river walks, has 16 comfortable cabins that can sleep up to 35 guests, an environmentally-controlled meeting room, a licensed commercial kitchen which provides fresh, mostly organic, often on-farm, meals - vegetarian or non-vegetarian or both.
