The Leadership Institute at Monsignor Farrell is designed to be a practical, candid, weekly discussion to help ensure that Monsignor Farrell students truly embrace the mindset of being lifelong learners.
It's designed to instigate not only a conversation between us but perhaps, more importantly, within each student to help them ask the questions:
- Who am I today?
- What are my values and priorities?
- What are the processes I use to get through life?
- How do I continue to improve in all facets of life?
It allows students to identify, hone, and enhance their first principles.
The Leadership Institute curriculum is based on real-world experiences. Class materials include books, videos, current events, personal experiences and stories, and notable guests to create interactive dialogue and a learning atmosphere.
