TEAMinar
October 4-6, 2010
Mount
Hermon Christian Conference Center & The Renewal Project present a
groundbreaking opportunity for Leadership Development In The Redwoods.
Led by Nancy Ortberg and based on the work of Patrick Lencioni, best-selling author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, and a team of top church consultants from The Renewal Project, TEAMinar gets leaders and their teams to talk openly about ministry, the team and their church’s ”unspeakables.” Doug Stevens will be helping as well. Danny Wallen is hosting. Dave Burns is doing the conference programming.
During
the session, Ortberg and company share real-life case studies and
glimpses into the formation of successful teams, along with insightful
observations about the fundamental causes of minstry politics and
failure.
"TEAMinar has
reshaped our approach to teamwork in monumental ways. The material is
simply some of the best I've seen for teaching executive teams how to
execute in a context of mutual respect. I heartily recommend this
program for ministry teams, and even for executive teams in other
non-profit or for-profit organizations"
- Keith Potter, Senior Pastor, Saratoga Federated Church,
after attending the first TEAMinar in Sept. 2007
TEAMinar promises to inspire real change as Ortberg reveals the five key elements of world-class teams:
- Genuine trust within the team
- Unfiltered discussions
- Steadfast commitment to decisions
- Peer-to-peer accountability
- Unwavering drive to God-focused results
“The
biggest opportunity for achieving ministerial excellence is sitting
right under our noses—getting people to work together. There is simply
no better tool for ensuring success and sustainability than building
real teamwork at the center of a church.”
–Patrick Lencioni
Great
leaders understand that they must do more than manage people. They need
to manage the interactions between people. That’s not a subtle
distinction—it’s a critical one. Successful churches build cohesive
leadership teams.
Who Should Attend
The program is designed for minstry leadership teams of up to eight individuals.
You will walk away with
- An in-depth assessment of your team’s strengths and weaknesses.
- An overview of the practical tools required to build and maintain a cohesive team
- A clearer understanding of your team’s purpose and role within your church
- An action plan for improving the way your team works
- Three months of on-going expert facilitation to ensure effective implementation
