            <p>History often reveals that the most profound leadership and creative breakthroughs do not emerge from conditions of limitless resources, but rather from moments of severe limitation. For St. Francis of Assisi, the composition of his enduring masterpiece occurred at a point of maximum physical agony and institutional marginalization. As MBA and DMSc candidates, or professional Christians exploring Mark Galli’s <em>Francis of Assisi and His World</em>, you are likely intimately familiar with the modern pressures of navigating complex organizational dynamics—often while possessing limited formal authority. This course bridges the centuries between Francis's world and our own, inviting you to explore how his historical and spiritual journey provides a powerful, enduring framework for transforming severe constraints into catalysts for high-level creative problem-solving and moral leadership.</p>

<p>Throughout our time together, we will journey deeply into the dynamics of constraint and perception, examining how Francis utilized his unique sacramental cosmology to navigate a world fraught with conflict. We will analyze his strategic responses to the loss of formal hierarchical power, discovering how moral capital and indirect intervention can beautifully and effectively resolve high-stakes disputes when traditional authority is no longer an option. By moving from historical critique to hands-on practice, you will have the opportunity to design conflict-resolution strategies and evaluate the intrinsic motivations behind both organizational and spiritual commitments. Ultimately, this exploration is designed to equip you with a continuous personal development plan, empowering you to apply these timeless, grace-filled methodologies to your own ethical leadership and executive challenges today.</p>
