LEAD903
Leader as Explorer, Guide and Meaning-makerUnit overview and content
In this unit, students engage in an in depth study of the concept of worldview and how it aligns with the study of hermeneutics, that is, the manner in which people and communities make sense of their experience. Students will utilise this methodology to analyse private and public worldviews, including the worldview of the Australian culture. Finally, they will study how it is that faith intersects with culture and how leaders within faith communities can respond.
