From 2-15 July 2023, Collegio Sant\u2019Anselmo was proud to host the Leadership and The Rule of Saint Benedict<\/em><\/a> course again, in a successful venture that included Benedictine, Cistercian, and Trappist monks and nuns.<\/p>\n The two-week program is sponsored by the Alliance for International Monasticism<\/a>, M\u00fcnsterschwarzach Abbey<\/a>, and the Benedict Foundation<\/a>. The course gathered 21 nuns and monks from 12 different countries at Sant’Anselmo to learn techniques of modern leadership in a monastery. The premise of the program claims that The Rule of Saint Benedict provides a timeless framework for assuming responsibility that is relevant even in today’s world.<\/p>\n The faculty is led by University of Saint Gallen<\/a> Professor G\u00fcnter M\u00fcller-Stewens<\/a> and Sant\u2019Anselmo Prior Mauritius Wilde<\/a> OSB. They are joined with other professors of Saint Gallen and experienced monks and nuns of different monasteries. This year, the faculty welcomed new members Sr. M Thad\u00e4a Selnack OCist from Marienstern<\/a> in Germany; and Mother Francesca \u1e64imuniov\u00e1<\/a> OSB from Venio Abbey in Munich.<\/p>\n
