A Plan for a Thriving Future (2022-2025)
We realize that the world, the Church, faith communities, and education are facing multiple crises, and that the existing models of theological education aren’t fulfilling their potential.
That is why PSR is embarking on a new and visionary course to address these issues and continue to fulfill our mission—to prepare a diverse cadre of spiritually rooted leaders with the vision, resilience and skill to create a world where all can thrive.
Our aggressive, dynamic three-year strategic plan is designed to transform the traditional seminary model and identify, prepare, and network emerging leaders who can bring our mission to life.
Below are five steps we’re taking to make this plan a reality:
1. Nurture Emancipatory and Collaborative Learning
Enhance academic quality and integration across all educational programs to empower a diverse cadre of spiritually rooted leaders to create a world where all can thrive.
2. Develop an Ecosystem Platform and Collective
Leverage technology to build a distributed learning platform for theological education that is more accessible—by effectively identifying, preparing, and networking spiritually rooted leaders—and more sustainable through a membership financial model that creates community, strengthens recruitment, and creates new streams of income for PSR and our network partners.
3. Grow Public Engagement and Enrollment
Align and integrate marketing, public relations, recruiting, and retention campaigns and systems to increase the school’s visibility and public engagement and achieve targeted participant, membership, and enrollment growth for all PSR programs and centers.
4. Enhance Employee Experience and Capacity
Cultivate an environment that enhances employee experience, retention, and development to build strength through diversity.
5. Achieve Operational and Financial Sustainability
Leverage assets and partnerships to achieve break-even operations by 2024 and sustain the mission for the long term.
Join us on this transformative journey to truly create a world where all can thrive!
