New 2010 Coaching Networks
Big news today. I’m opening registrations for two new coaching networks in 2010. One of them will meet in Atlanta at West Ridge Church. The other one will meet from the confines of your home office via the World Wide Web. I’m offering one opportunity for those who want to travel to Hotlanta and another for those who would like to save a few pennies and join us online.
Overview
This network is designed for leaders and strategists who serve in a local church. The network will be limited to no more than 12 participants. As best as possible, I will select candidates to participate who are in similar roles and at similar churches. I’ll try to create an environment where you can experience the coaching but also learn from your peers. And, frankly, I’m looking forward to being challenged and learning from all of the participants as well.
We will meet six times once a month between February and July 2010. Each day will begin at 9:00 am and conclude by 3:00 pm. The dates are listed below. Once the coaching network participants are identified, I will ask for recommendations on topics to cover at each session. Topics may include: staffing, leadership development, communications strategy, financial stewardship, volunteer team development, weekend services, ministry structure, multi-site strategy and more. Additionally, each session will include an opportunity for participants to discuss the pressing issues they are facing in their ministry environments.
What will you receive?
- Six day-long coaching sessions
- The opportunity to network with like-minded leaders
- An invitation to join an online forum limited to network participants for continuing dialogue between sessions
- Several free tools and resources including my new book, Killing Cockroaches
- Plus other fun surprises and guest appearances!
What are the expectations?
- Be a leader and/or strategist who’s currently serving in a local church
- Demonstrate a strong commitment to personal and ministry growth
- Attend all six coaching sessions on the following dates:
- Web Network: Feb 18, Mar 18, Apr 15, May 13, Jun 17, Jul 15
- Atlanta Network: Feb 19, Mar 19, Apr 16, May 14, Jun 18, Jul 16
- Invest $200 per session
- Complete the coaching network application by Friday, January 8, 2010 and submit it for review
If you are accepted into the network, we will notify you by Friday, January 15. If you have additional questions, please contact me.
As someone who had the opportunity to be in Tony’s last network, let me recommend that you will not go wrong making this investment. The information is great, and the relationships that will result are priceless.
The Web opportunity was not available for my session; I would have been tempted to save the travel bucks by taking it. Glad now I traveled; nothing beats the personal interaction with the others participating.
