Leadership & Governance
Servant leadership. Professional responsibility.
Leadership within IPPSCC is understood not simply as authority, but as responsibility — the duty to shepherd chaplains and safeguard the trust placed in the Corps.
Authority as responsibility
Rank within the Corps is measured by the weight of care carried — for chaplains, for institutions, and for every person served.
Character before position
Leadership is conferred on proven character: integrity, humility, competence and a record of faithful service.
Accountability at every tier
Each level answers upward and serves downward — authority flows one way, responsibility flows both.

Grow through formation, prove faithful in small assignments — and rise within a Corps that honors servant leadership.
