All Nations Leadership Academy Presentation

1. WELCOME TO THE CLASS OF 2012

2. Purpose Statement
• The All Nations Leadership Academy exists to
make a significant difference in solving some of
the most critical problems in our country and
the rest of the world.
• South Africa is at a critical stage of it’s
redevelopment and in dire need of intellectually
and morally stimulated individuals that have the
commitment and dedication to change it for the
better.

3. Philosophical Overview
 There is a battle raging between Christo-centric
and Humanistic thought, therefore it is critical for
the Christian leadership student to be well-
grounded in the principles and methods for
defending and applying Christian principles.
 It is our conviction that the divinely-revealed
Word of God is the only basis for a sound world-
view that sows the seeds of intellectual, ethical,
and scientific life and liberty, while all other
belief systems sow misery, bondage and death.

4. Educational Philosophy
• The educational philosophy of ANLA is self-
consciously rooted in the Scriptures which
provide the framework through which a
worldview and comprehensive philosophy of life
is developed.
• This foundational framework then becomes the
value system through which all thoughts,
intentions, and actions, are judged for truth or
error.
• The Scriptures are the foundation of all
knowledge and wisdom.

5. Historical impact study
 At ANLA emphasis is placed upon understanding
the ideologies and movements that have
fundamentally shaped the African civilization.
 While it is true that Christianity has influenced
much of African culture, much is still left wanting.
 These many cultural influences upon leadership
will be carefully studied and, in the case of non-
Christian thought, critically evaluated.

6. ANLA is not a Bible School
• Although we use the Bible as our foundational
reference tool we are not a Bible school, we
do not teach doctrine, theology, eschatology
or ecclesiology at our leadership academy.
• At ANLA our focus is purely on the
development of the leader within.
• It is therefore not our endeavor to change our
students on a doctrinal level, but to empower
and enhance their leadership capabilities.

7. Prepared for the Kingdom
 Knowledge for the sake of knowledge is useless, and
even harmful, while knowledge drawn from the
reservoir of Scripture must be used to advance the
Kingdom of God in this world.
 ANLA is a leadership academy which emphasizes that
it is the responsibility of each person to obediently use
the tools they have acquired to exercise godly
dominion in every profession, occupation, or endeavor
they pursue.
 Thus, the key to the Christian life is not knowledge per
se, but ethical action for which all knowledge must be
used.

8. Why is a Christian Leadership
Academy Needed?
 To develop significant leaders in the church for the
kingdom of God, a vacuum not filled by most Bible
Schools or tertiary institutions.
 To call out extraordinary leadership from believers in
Christ as they minister within their churches so that
the church may advance in its mission in the world.
 Leadership is not the private practice of selected
charismatic men or women in leadership positions; it is
also the activity of ordinary men and women when
they act upon the latent potential within them, to
lead.

9.  To develop leadership and administrative skills within
people for the mission of the church and the kingdom
of God.
 Effective leadership is supported by sound
administrative activity.
 To provide a place for developing administrative skills
across a broad range of practice including strategic
planning, human resource management,
organizational dynamics, and financial administration.
 To assure that leaders in the local context, which is the
frontier of the mission, receive excellent support in
leadership development as well as those who serve in
institutional settings.
 To provide leadership development and resources to
our communities as well as to church entities.

10. What is the vision for ANLA?
• Our vision is to transform ordinary followers
into significant leaders and to empower them
by Christian principles to enable them to
provide outstanding leadership for the local
church and the kingdom of God throughout
the world.
• The Academy provides these leaders with
ongoing leadership development based on the
servant leadership model of Christ.

11. • Our academy promotes and pursues a
biblically based model of servant leadership.
• A place for academics and field practitioners
to link in a process of Biblical reflection that
shapes the church’s understandings of
leadership and clarifies transformational
leadership development across all race,
gender and culture divides.

12. The 3-C principle of development
• At ANLA we seek the transformation of persons
in the context of leadership development and see
the development of leaders on three distinct
levels:

traits (capacity),

skills. (competency)
