The Culture Project Leaders Program
The key people who drive our goal of equipping this generation to build a culture of love and life, are our young adult leaders. These leaders are university graduates (or young adults of a similar age with varied professional backgrounds) who give 1 to 2 years of their life to start building a better culture. They are young people who have seen the impact of addictions, brokenness, disposable relationships and isolation, and have decided to embrace the alternative.
The Leaders Program is based on four principles: virtue, service, community, and interiority.
virtue
Our leaders commit to going on a journey of personal development to equip them to have the relationships with others that we all desire. Throughout their leadership program, they receive formation in, and personally work towards, relationships of courageous communication, mutual service, embracing their own and others’ dignity, and discovering that their gifts are given to build others up.
Service
The Culture Project exists to be at the service of youth and young adults, and our leaders are the key people to achieve this. Leaders spend their time in schools, at young adult events and anywhere else they can bring their experiences of love and life to others. The message they bring is that they have discovered that our purpose is to be treated with love and treat others with love, that our masculinity and femininity are gifts not obstacles and that we are made to be a gift to others.
The leaders carry key responsibilities for different aspects of our service, such as digital communications, managing retreat days, and logistical elements of the project. Our leaders receive extensive training and coaching in presentation and communication. In all our services, we hold ourselves to the highest professionalism, and there is no better preparation for future responsibilities than the well supported and challenging role of being a Culture Project leader.
Community
Being a leader in the Culture Project is a discovery that we are made for community. Our leaders live together in residential communities with one house for the men and one for the women. This community life teaches us that we can be accepted with both our strengths and struggles, that others help us to become the person that we want to be, and that we all have a lot to bring to each other person in a team. Many of our past leaders have formed some of their closest friendships through relationships with others during their time in the Culture Project.
Each leader receives extensive mentoring through multiple channels, so that they are thoroughly supported through their time in the leaders program.
Interiority
The Culture Project wants each young person to experience the fullness of love and life. To help our leaders discover this, our leaders program includes time to develop self-awareness and an interior life. This interiority is key to developing healthy relationships, authenticity, communication, freedom and purpose.
