The LECNA Fellows Program is a year-long leadership development experience organized around vocation and calling, sustainable leader development, and visionary organizational leadership designed to equip the next generation of leaders for Lutheran higher education, congregations, and church agencies. The foundation for the Fellows experience is Martin Luther’s doctrine of vocation and calling. Fellows are challenged to reflect on their personal calling, strengths, and values as they develop a personal integrated leader model. Participants explore the principles and practices of visionary organizational leadership, a perspective that focuses on the vocational calling of their institution or congregation. This includes an exploration of economics, entrepreneurial thinking, human flourishing, and community service. Since 2001, the LECNA Fellows (formerly Thrivent Fellows) Program for Higher Education has served over 200 emerging and accomplished leaders; 18 are currently serving (or have served) as presidents and CEOs, 27 as vice presidents, and 28 as deans or directors. Two former Fellows are currently ELCA synodical bishops. This new offering builds on nearly two decades of successful senior leadership development for Lutheran college and universities.
