• Welcome to Jos Nigeria

    Can you imagine living in a place where chaos and corruption are the norm? Where bombings and hatred are fueled by politics and those who are supposed to serve and protect are the ones you run from? Welcome to Jos. That wouldn’t really work for a tourist campaign, but it is the perfect location for an Everyday Leadership Academy. Kingdom Citizen’s International School is willing to take a huge risk in establishing their school as an ELA, as it will require them to act completely counter culturally in many ways: how they educate, how they raise children, how they will live in peace with their enemies, how they will live rightly when their leaders do not. This community in on this path and committed to living differently, and to take the courageous step to implement this in an entire school is admirable.

    This will not be an easy task and it will take a very long time. Transforming work is slow, as it requires paradigm shifts in thinking and behaving. Trish and Shawna spent ten days working with the teaching staff in March taking them through Reckoning’s Approach to character and leadership development, and in June the Reckoning team from California and Trish will return for part 2.

    To join Reckoning and Kingdom Citizen’s International School in this vision of raising globally minded, compassionate and just leaders: share this story with others, donate to this cause, let us know how your talents and passion can make a difference in this work. We would love to hear from you!

    Nigeria's future

    What hope looks like

  • Reckoning in Amsterdam

    Are you interested in embedding a LEAD initiative in your current program? Reckoning can train your staff in our approach to give them more skills and tools in transformational work. Our manual, On the Mend in a Broken World, can show you how to develop character and leadership in your staff and in the students you teach.  Contact us at info@reckoning.nl

  • Training for staff with those who work with children/youth

    ServiceSlide2

    Perhaps you would like the training Reckoning offers in leadership and character development to enhance your current curriculum. On the Mend in a Broken World, is a manual designed to train leaders in a way that allows for contextualization. Reckoning would first conduct a needs assessment to see what training is needed, then design the training based on the needs of each team. The manual has three main sections: team building/personal development, character and leadership development and pedagogy/classroom management. We are in the process of putting together a companion art-making book containing the way Reckoning embeds character and leadership with art. Contact Reckoning at info@reckoning.nl.

  • Future InSite Programs

    ServiceSlide3

    Reckoning is looking at other potential locations besides Ehkanini for sustainable work. If you are interested in developing an InSite program at your school, or with your group of teens, contact us at info@reckoning.nl. Our goal is to expand and develop a new model for short-term projects with the focus on sustainable and transformational work.
