Faith in the Workplace: A Consultation for Leaders

The Avodah Institute is inviting a select group of business leaders to explore and investigate the subject of faith and work. Faith in the Workplace: A Consultation for Leaders will take place on the campus of Princeton Theological Seminary, starting at 4:00PM Thursday, May 25 and concluding at 2:00PM on Friday, May 26, 2000. We will be engaged by the best in cutting edge academic thought, with presentations from professors from Harvard Business School and Princeton Theological Seminary.

Faith in the Workplace: A Consultation for Leaders< is sponsored by The Avodah Institute. One of the goals of The Avodah Institute is to encourage dialogue among leaders on issues relating to faith and work. Avodah is a Hebrew word with a double meaning - work and ministry. While Avodah approaches its mission through the Christian tradition, people of all religious traditions are welcome to participate in events sponsored by the Institute. Our aim is to find practical ways to integrate faith claims and workplace demands that are constructive, inclusive, and nondiscriminatory.

This senior level Consultation is the first of three, with the aim of producing a book or series of publications that will help leaders better relate to and understand the subject of faith and work. We expect a stimulating set of discussions in a spirit of openness and engagement.
