Synopsis :

In Redeeming Administration, Garrido examines twelve spiritual habits presenting a saint who embodies each habitand guiding readers in how to experience their administrative work as a crucial ministry of the Church. Readers will meet St Angela Merici, whose virtue of breadth of vision shows how to let go of pettiness and excessive fixation on detail in favour of creating an environment that invites its people to flourish. Introduces St Joseph Mukasa, whose capacity for reflection will help administrators to ask crucial questions before decisions are made and to grow in awareness of their motivations, decisions and the effects of their actions. St Rose Phillipine Duschesenes example of embracing death shows the spiritual benefits of a deep understanding of the Christian mystery of death and resurrectionand offers administrators courage to live beyond such recurring deaths as control, productivity, grand dreams and eighthour work days. Questions for personal reflection, group conversation, or spiritual direction and a brief prayer complete each chapter. Free downloads include retreat outlines, smallgroup resources and an administrators selfassessment inventory.
