The 5 E’s of Leadership

Bring a brown bag lunch for an educational lunch break!

Everyone is a leader, whether it’s in their job title or not. Organizations and churches need effective leadership at all levels, on all projects, to achieve their missions. The 5 E model of leadership asks leaders to: Envision; Engage; Energize; Enable; and Execute. By developing your 5 E’s, you can bring your best self to your work and contribute in new and different ways. 

Understanding your own strengths and opportunity areas is essential to becoming the best leader you can be. We will learn how to identify the 5 E’s, signs that indicate growth areas, and how to develop each dimension. We will discuss the key differences between leading and managing, and why effective leaders need to do both. With greater capacity to envision, engage, energize, enable, and execute at all levels, organizations can deliver outstanding performance and results.
