The Three Habits of a Successful Parish Team
Leadership has been defined in many ways.  One humorous but accurate definition states: “Leadership is the art of disappointing people at a rate they can stand.”  Unfortunately, many leaders operate in that way.  Successfully leading a group of individuals to create a cohesive and dynamic team is difficult but essential in today’s church.

Please join us for an engaging and informative afternoon
where you will learn:

• What is a crisis of imagination and how does it relate to your church?
• Why should I always ask why first?
• Cooperation is no longer enough
• How servant leadership and collaboration consistently create the most  successful parishes
• What high performance teams do differently than most
• How to raise self-awareness, manage conflict and improve accountability
• Essential questions for ministry leaders and their teams
• What makes a great team and how to create one
