LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENTYou spend the majority of your time at work. And you’re good at it. But you wonder – could you be doing more for God? If you’re like most Christian leaders, the answer is YES... but you don’t need to leave your job to do it.

Being part of Lifework Leadership helped me to look at the deeper meaning of business from a fresh biblical perspective. Journeying with other believers who also struggle with everyday challenges in the marketplace and engaging with these issues in a true biblical manner has been very refreshing. The course’s power lies in the relations one builds with fellow graduates, the stories of real life crises and ethical solutions.
MARNO BOSHOFFDirector – Dreamstrat Consulting
Are you looking for new growth and energy, purpose in life, solid principles and advice that create positive change, incredible speakers with real life success stories, new business partners to contribute to your successes, friends who share your values and to top it all, a revived relationship with the best Leader, Trainer and Coach, JESUS? Join this amazing journey now; it certainly changed my approach to life and put my calling in a new perspective.
RONÉL BEZUIDENHOUTManaging Director – The Capital Hotel School
Lifework Leadership is a critical step on the journey to achieving a fulfilling work life. It has made me realise that my challenges are not so unique and learn from the experiences of others who have successfully navigated similar twists in their careers, in an ethical, Christ-focused way.
If you are willing to share and participate openly on this journey, you are very likely to bring Christ centred humility to your perspective and decision making.

Business leaders are key contributors and shapers of the communities we live in. As Christians they are challenged to engage their faith in the decisions and dealings of their daily functioning, and many times feel deeply inadequate.
Lifework Leadership is the most empowering global tool I know to equip business leaders for this very purpose!
