Since the challenges and opportunities of leadership rarely present themselves in neat little packages, UULTI provides an integrated experience where you:

	Join with ministers, staff and lay leaders to create a shared learning environment
	Train in one particular area of concentration (TRACKS).
	Explore the impact of five leadership perspectives (LENSES) on your track training.
	Learn deeply from one another by meeting in Covenant Groups, Home Teams and Cluster Teams, as well as during meals, worship, vespers and social time.
	Develop a take-home plan with your home or cluster team that integrates track and lens learnings (coaching available).
	Receive post-institute training to help solidify your growth and implement your take-home plan.

PARTICIPANTS ENGAGE WITH ONE OF FIVE LEARNING TRACKS.

	GOVERNANCE: Create effective and flexible structures that fulfill the promise of your mission.
	GROWTH: Lead to and through change, reverse declines, break through plateaus and grow beyond.
	LIFESPAN FAITH DEVELOPMENT: Enhance faith and action through religious education and small group ministry.
	STEWARDSHIP: Spark the spiritual need to give; connect individual responsibility to congregational mission.
	WORSHIP ARTS: Foster compelling, transcendent experiences. Extend sacred space into all activities.

ALL TRACKS address public witness, community outreach, social justice and aspects of small, mid-sized and large congregations.

PARTICIPANTS VIEW TRACK LEARNINGS THROUGH FIVE LENSES.

Multigenerational Community ♦ Leading Change in Dynamic Congregational Systems ♦ Leadership As a Spiritual Path ♦ The History of UU Evangelism and Social Action ♦ Anti-Racism, Anti-Oppression and Multi-Culturalism

UULTI is rooted in the values and stories of our faith and our commitment to justice for all peoples. Participants explore how these values and stories mesh with their learning track and strengthen their own faith and actions.

CONGREGATIONS BENEFIT FROM COVENANTED TEAM WORK.

No matter what your congregation is like - from small to large, rural to urban, stable to transitioning, struggling to thriving, or any congregation in between, team work is a vital component of shared ministry. Did you send a team last year? Send the same or a different team. Repeat tracks or select alternate ones. Build a critical mass of leaders who share the UULTI experience. Individuals from smaller congregations are encouraged (by discounts!) to form geo-based learning teams.

UULTI is sponsored by a Team – the Northeast Regional Group (NRG Co-op) of the UUA, which includes the Joseph Priestley, Metro New York, Ohio-Meadville and St. Lawrence Districts.
