A first look at the retreat
Thinking about the ISLA Leadership Retreat this December, or wondering whether it is right for you or your team? Join the people planning it for a one-hour glimpse of what The Heart of a Leader holds, December 4–6 at the Diyanet Center of America, near Washington, D.C.
What we will cover
- The four conditions of the heart: a high-level overview of the heart on autopilot, the guarded heart, the wounded heart and the depleted heart, the four themes the retreat is built around.
- Program highlights: how the weekend flows, from the optional Friday school visit to Sunday’s close.
- Why it matters: why investing in a leader’s inner life reaches every teacher and every student.
- Your questions: an open conversation with the organizers about the program, lodging and registration.
