The Center for Relational Leadership (CRL) is an organization dedicated to developing resources and providing training to help individuals, homes, communities, businesses and other organizations equip their leaders and teams to address 21st Century challenges.

We at the Center for Relational Leadership have recognized the need for relationships in the 21st Century to become more relevant to the world around us. Relevancy results from knowing the significant challenges with which those around us are struggling.

As our culture becomes more mobile, more technologically advanced, and moves at a faster pace people are becoming more disconnected relationally. The most critical issues people will face in the coming century will be, at their heart, relational in nature. This is nothing new. The same has been true since the beginning of time. What is different is that more people today than ever before are dreadfully ill prepared with the relational skills necessary to navigate these challenges.

This is why it is so important to have a breadth of relational care that touches students and children, marriages, parenting, single-relationships, and others. For many people the workplace is becoming what the neighborhood was in times past. Their closest relationships—such as they are—are in the workplace. For them, the question of relevance will be, "What help do you have to offer me to deal with business and work-place relationships?” To each home and community the challenge is improving the overall relational skills for effective living.

The message to businesses is that great relational skills can and will impact many areas…customer loyalty, employee morale, productivity, and ultimately the bottom line. As businesses train their employees in these skills it will improve their quality of life and have a positive impact on their families and their community as well as their businesses.

Resources currently available include Top Ten Relational Needs, Keeping Marriages Healthy plus Business as UnUsual and Relational Leadership. Training to support these resources is available as well as structured consulting and programs for student leaders, government entities and private businesses.
