New Coaching Networks Launching Soon
It’s hard to believe, but over the past couple of years about 50 guys (no women…yet) have participated in coaching networks I’ve hosted at NewSpring, West Ridge and on the Web. I’m opening registrations for two new coaching networks that will begin in August. One of them will meet in Atlanta at West Ridge Church. The other coaching network will either meet in Dallas, Texas or online. (I haven’t decided yet. Maybe you can sway my opinion.)
Who will participate?
This network is designed for leaders and strategists who serve in a local church. Typically, that has included lead pastors, executive pastors and leaders who report directly to one of those positions in larger church settings. The network will be limited to no more than 12 participants. In the past, partipants have been from churches of all shapes and sizes — churches ranging from 200 to over 20,000 in attendance. 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.
What will you receive?
- Six days of coaching sessions beginning August 2010 (9:00 am to 3:00 pm each day)
- Focused training on a variety of ministry strategies topics including staffing, leadership development, communications, financial stewardship, volunteer team development, weekend services, ministry structure, discipleship, multi-site and more
- Tools, exercises and best practices to implement after every session

- Dedicated time in every gathering to talk through the pressing issues you are facing
- An invitation to join an online forum limited to network participants for continuing dialogue between sessions
