Teaching Organisation This unit is equivalent to 150 hours of focused learning. These may include lectures, seminars and workshops, and mixed modes.

This unit recognises the urgent need for students to wrestle with the dynamics of power and authority as they seek to bring their espoused theology into close alignment with how they exercise leadership. This unit, appropriating philosophical enquiry and the social sciences, explores the elements of pastoral leadership along with various ways of abusing one's pastoral authority. Overall, the unit attempts to introduce students to and equip them for engaging leadership.
