Executives Conference 2025: 'Leaders Stay at the Table'

Executives Conference 2025: ‘Leaders Stay at the Table’

We invite CEN Executive Leaders (Principals, Deputies, Business Managers) to participate in our upcoming Executives Conference which will be held in Sydney commencing 8.30am Thursday 20 March and finishing by 12:30pm Friday 21 March 2025.

The Leaders Stay at the Table conference is designed for principals and executive leaders in Christian education, providing a space to engage deeply with the call to remain present, resilient, and impactful within challenging and ever-evolving environments. This gathering is rooted in the understanding that Christian leadership requires a unique commitment to faithfulness, steadfastness, a willingness to lean into difficult conversations, and an unwavering dedication to serving communities with humility and grace.

Leaders Stay at the Table invites participants to renew their sense of purpose and to equip themselves to face both the practical and spiritual challenges of Christian leadership.

Our Keynote speakers include:

Rev. Dr. Matthew Kaemingk, Fuller Theological Seminary
Sam Burrows
Dan Anderson
