Module 1 - Leadership for the Rest of Us

So I'm hosting my first ever leadership learning lab. Read below and see if it's for you!

Leadership for the Rest of Us
Module 1: Leading Church B
April 27 - April 29, 2009

Leading Church B is a combined experiential training, learning lab and retreat for all who want to create and apply practices of working effectively with others to create innovative and comprehensive solutions during times of change. It is a powerful leadership practicum as well as a daily pattern and practice for individuals, communities, families, businesses and organizations who aspire to work in more interactive, engaging and effective ways. This particular Module is advanced training based on the basic foundation found in Mark Riddle’s book Inside the Mind of Youth Pastors.

We welcome fellow leaders – trainers, youth pastors, senior pastors, executive pastors, consultants, youth workers, church plant organizations, leaders of missionary organizations, church board members - pioneers from various roles of church leadership- who want to see and act wisely from a different perspective and practice leadership where our own and other people’s courage, creativity, intelligence and wisdom are set free.

This Training is NOT for Spectators:

Our learning will start with the presenters content, but will grow out of participant contributions and presence – we will support one another as co-learners.

We will learn by observation, experience and practice, using an interactive process to build a safe challenging and inspiring environment.

Develop competence in several interactive processes including unearthing assumptions, advocacy and inquiry and others that produce learning and clarity, creativity and shared commitment to action.

We have priced this event to provide modest support for the hosting team and pay for the cost of the facilities, registration and materials. This is seminar is based upon hundreds of similar gathers the hosts have facilitated. However this particular date will be an updated version. For this reason we have significantly lowered the tuition from $1,299 to $225.
