• Equipping Others for Leadership

    Action Items

    1. Watch the Recap video and three videos on Equipping Others for Leadership (ASAP)
    2. Consider the following actions:
      o Have your team complete the StrengthsFinder Assessment and discuss the results together. Review the StrengthsFinder Leadership Domains to determine if the team is balanced across the themes as a collective group. Which domain is most represented? Most under-represented?

      o Complete the Team Health Assessment in the DR Guidebook on page 29. Fill it out individually and then discuss your responses together as a team. What areas need to be addressed? What are some next steps?

      o Create a plan for your leadership team meeting structure, cadence, who will perform what role/responsibility, and how decisions and needed actions will get cascaded to others that you support outside the team.

    As we move from the clerical model of the past, the goal turns from giving people tasks and gathering warm bodies around a table (or to fill a ministry), to now raising up leaders who are themselves equipped to use their gifts, lead, and raise up others.

    This requires that priests must invest time in getting to know members of his flock, ultimately having “I see in you” conversations with those who have leadership potential. It is also important that structures are put in place, so that everyone is supported and has opportunities to grow in their leadership.

    This process takes time and intentionality; however, it will ultimately result in giving people the opportunity to use their gifts to serve God.
