Hone your leadership skills with us

Gethsemani Leadership Training & Consulting

Our leadership model

We are inspired by all leadership models such as servant leadership, transformational leadership, agent leadership, but especially the Steward Leadership.

In the stewardship model of leadership, every human being is a steward within the institution. This model also states that we are responsible for material goods that do not belong to us. All these assets belong to an owner who is not us. After all, life is a spinning wheel, and everyone who passes through leaves his or her mark - good or bad. The good steward manages things as if they belonged to him, even though he knows they don't...

Why Gethsemane?

"Leader" literally means the one who drives the ship. In other words, you could literally say that "leadership" means driving the boat. It's not without its difficulties, stresses and complications. Many challenges lie ahead, ready to be met. Gethsemane, in Jesus' day, was a garden at the foot of the Mount of Olives. In Hebrew, "Gethsemane" means press, a place where olives were pressed to extract olive oil.

The biblical story also relates that it was in this garden of Gethsemane that Jesus went to pray. Just before his arrest, the pressure and internal struggle led to a transfiguration of his sweat into drops of blood.

At GLTC, we're not going to make you transfigure your sweat into drops of blood, but we are inspired by these two stories of the olive press and transfiguration to emphasize to our customers and partners that leadership is no laughing matter.

"Leadership" for us means, taking on and carrying the burden of the business, organization, church and team you lead.

When you call on us, you're ready to face the challenges of our training and consulting sessions. GLTC's expertise is to bring out the best in you, the hidden qualities or skills to be improved for the well-being of the Ship (boat) of which you are Captain (Leader). You enter Gethsemane as a raw olive, but you come out as olive oil ready to serve the company, organization, church or team you lead. You won't be the same when you leave our training or consulting sessions. Welcome to Gethsemani Consulting!
