Gary Cook School of Leadership

Welcome to the Gary Cook School of Leadership. We offer leadership training in a variety of formats, including conferences, webinars, scholarly journals, and academic degrees - the Master of Arts in Leadership, the EdD in Educational Leadership, and the PhD in Leadership Studies.

Our mission is to train up the next generation of leaders who seek to serve rather than be served. To this end, we remain focused on the character and person of Jesus Christ, who is the ultimate example of leadership, and we use His paradigm of biblical servant leadership, integrated with the latest in the field of leadership studies, to train men and women to serve as leaders in a variety of fields.

Alumni from the Cook School of Leadership are currently serving as hosptial executives, government officials, university presidents, marketplace entreprenuers, heads of schools, senior pastors, professors, and so much more. They are equipped to take the robust Christian leadership education they have received and in turn help people and organizations thrive.

It is our passion to see a generation of Christian leaders emerge from the Cook School of Leadership, and we would love to help you achieve your calling.
