Explore the course
- 1This course is only for individuals actively working in junior or senior leadership positions.
- 2You can buy both the handbook (Power-Dressing Paul) and the workbook from Amazon (links above — coming soon), or from any other platform that hosts them.
- 3The workbook consists of 10 modules with questions and practical assignments which, if done thoroughly and with care, will facilitate your practical transformation into a Pauline leader. The objective of this course is transformation, not speed — and that takes time, practice and effort.
- 4The workbook has limited space for brief notes, so take the opportunity to answer and report back on your experiences in much greater detail electronically before submitting it for evaluation and feedback.
- 5The course also includes 52 videos of 7–15 minutes each. They give an overview of some of the main topics in the handbook to broaden your background knowledge.
- 6If you are interested in receiving the Pauline Leadership Practitioner Certificate, you can send your completed reports, questions and assignments to Dr. Vermeulen for evaluation and discussion.
- 7For the sake of your personal, practical transformation, we will only discuss, evaluate and give feedback on one module per month from each candidate. Since this is a self-study course, you are free to work through the workbook faster if you prefer.
- 8Certificates are only awarded to candidates who have practically completed all the options outlined in the workbook in their places of work. Partial reports, and those without the additional questionnaires and evaluations (EQ-i 2.0 and MBTI) mentioned above, do not qualify for the Pauline Leadership Practitioner Certificate, but receive a Certificate of Completion.
- 9Virtual discussions via Zoom can be arranged to discuss your work where possible.
- 10Access to the online resources expires once the course is completed and your certificate is issued, or after a maximum of two years.
Special discounts are available for bulk registrations (universities, colleges and groups).
