Weeklong Leadership Training

A powerful weeklong leadership training opportunity will take place in Cedar Lake, Indiana (one hour from Chicago) from Sunday, August 1, 2010 to Friday, August 6, 2010.

The non-partisan training will be attended by local elected officials, clergy and faith leaders, campaign staff and volunteers who want to experience the training that Barack Obama taught as a community organizer and the training that was used in the successful Camp Obama program of the Obama for America Campaign.

This training will allow you to reflect upon your experiences and what it means for you to be a leader in the public arena. You will engage with other participants in a learning community that emphasizes self-reflection, introspection and mutual inquiry. You will benefit from an environment, which will give you the opportunity to take risks, practice new behaviors and reexamine your current strengths and weaknesses. By the end of the week, you will develop a personal plan of action for becoming a more effective and powerful person.

Cost: The tuition plus room and board for this six-day residential training is $550 for affiliates and qualified applicants; $1100 per participant who is from a non-affiliated group; or $750 per person is available for non-affiliated groups that bring five or more attendees.

Download a form (click HERE) that you can print out and mail in to register. Feel free to forward this to your own network of leaders and emerging leaders in the faith community, university students, campaign staff and volunteers, labor, political and community organizers, and public officials.

Sincerely,
Paul Scully
