The 5 Orientations and 15 Core Leadership Competencies are derived from the Vincentian Leadership Model, inspired by the work of Saint Vincent De Paul, CM, a 17th Century Catholic Priest from France who devoted his life to Servant Leadership and serving the poor. He is revered as the Patron Saint of the Poor.
1. Self - values, inclusivity, openness
2. Mission-vision - innovation, risk-taking
3. People - communication, empowerment, motivation
4. Service - social justice, transformation, systemic change
5. Task - commitment, collaboration, ethics
We are committed to cultivating these leadership competencies across all our initiatives.
St Vincent De Paul, Pray For Us, Amen!
