Success Assurance
Helping Leaders To Be Better Leaders
The importance of giving new ministry leaders the tools to succeed in their newly acquired role cannot be overstated. The ability for a new leader to successfully navigate new waters during their first number of months typically sets the tone for their long-term leadership effectiveness.
Whether or not Ministry by Design has helped you conduct your search, we can help your new pastor get the "traction" they need for a successful and fruitful launch. Research proves that when leaders utilize external coaching immediately in a new role, both turnover and "ramp up" time is reduced; ministry team turnover can also be decreased.
When Ministry by Design conducts your search for a new leader, the process itself produces much of the critical data needed to power a detailed Success Assurance engagement (that includes a SIMA® Motivated Abilities Pattern® on your new pastor, your church's Vital Signs® Report and a deep understanding of the Critical Ministry Requirements needed for success).
Pastoral Success Assurance uses qualitative and quantitative assessments and coaching on both the organization and the individual. These resources give rich insight for developing an individual assurance plan for each new leader.
Our goals in Success Assurance are to:
- Clearly define the pastoral leadership role, strengths and areas of development for the new leader.
- Support the leader in identifying and developing personal leadership strategies to address the organization's key initiatives.
- Provide strategies for leading and managing direct reports and ministry teams.
- Provide our objective "informed outsider" perspective and frank appraisal of the leader's strengths, the role, the team and the organization.
- Provide personalized on-going coaching.
Our team is committed to providing your organization with a tailored success assurance process that delivers ongoing positive impact and organizational results.
