Resonating with Ignatian leadership • Transcendence: “Transcending the routine and relishing the experience.” • Magnanimity: “After teaching for a long time, it is easy to slide into thinking na “puedena ‘to”. I need to remind myself to excel all the more to form my students to be leaders and to inspire them. • Mission/Vocare: Intersection of my deepest desire and the world’s deepest need “being set on Ignatian fire”:
Resonating.. • Leadership as Interiority: What was new for me was how Ignatian spirituality is a spirituality of leadership. When Jesus said “Come follow me.” It wasn’t “Come obey me”. Christ is a leader calling me to “Do as he does. To follow his example.” If I follow Christ, I am called to be a leader. And following from Christ’s example, a leader is someone who is responsible to Someone or “Something greater than myself”. A leader is also someone who is responsible for the people following him. Leadership starts with myself.
Strengths and Challenges • Interiority and Companionship/Prayer and community • Transcendence: “To always remember it’s not about me.” “PapaanoakomagingkatuladNiya? Si Hesukristoangbottomline.” “Fire doesn’t remain stagnant. You remain on fire with friends, moving towards new frontiers.”
Situational challenges • Integration in general • environmental education in the curriculum and campus practice • campus ministry: Sacraments to be more relevant to the youth • inspiring students/meaningful learning) • The one-sided view of Ignatian spirituality: Remembering: Tantum Quantum Redemptive Theology vs. Creation Theology • Need for continuous formation of the individual to nurture himself/herself as Christian leader: • “I have to be more so that others can be more.”
Possibilities of Ignatian leadership • Ruth’s “Big Bang theory” • Strengthen partnerships in aggressive and strategic ways (i.e. CLC, SLB, CEAP, JBEC, ASOG)
