CORE VALUES

GATL maintains the following four core values:

Intentional: GATL is an intentional leadership development program.  It believes that the problem of the shortage of transformational servant leaders does not go away by itself, and intentional action must be taken.

Biblical: GATL maintains biblical perspective in all its content and training processes.  It maintains a belief that leaders who are genuine, secure, and willing to serve others are the ones whose worldview and attitude is shaped by the Word of God and the work of the Holy Spirit.

Practical: The emphasis of GATL is practical application. GATL believes that leaders learn better and develop faster when they are exposed to best leadership practices, taught how to integrate theory with practice, mentored by exemplary leaders, given challenging ministry assignments and held accountable to design and implement their personal development plans.

Transformational: The leadership development process of GATL is transformational. GATL believes that leaders who have experienced inner personal transformation by the power of the Holy Spirit can play a significant role in leading holistic societal transformation.
