Other Marist Voices 54 was written by Dr Mark Bussin, Director of the Marist Schools in South Africa, Province of Southern Africa, who addresses the theme “Reflections of a lay marist in South Africa about servant leadership” (English | Español | Français | Português > VIDEO).
Other Marist Voices
This project is promoted by the Marist International Mission Commission and gives continuity to the initiative “Marist Voices”, a book launched in 2022 that addresses the theme of Marist leadership and seeks to reflect on the request of the last General Chapter that underlined that “For a new beginning, we believe in governance that favours prophetic servant leadership and closely accompanies Marist life and mission.”
120 Marists from around the world, including brothers, lay men and women, have been invited to share their perspectives on leadership from their own experiences. Each brings a unique vision and reflects on specific aspects of servant and prophetic leadership. Each week two messages are posted on the Institute’s communication channels.
This link gives you access to all the messages of this initiative, published as of September 2023.
