Love it or hate it, organizations tend to function in the realm of hiearchies, processes, procedures and structures. So too the “usual” expression of church. Generally speaking.
Ever re-examine your church leadership structure to try and determine if it’s effective for the growth in staff and congregation you’re experiencing and, perhaps more importantly, if it’s optimal for serving your mission? Structurally speaking there are various options to consider… from keeping the leadership structure essentially flat… to a standard hierarchy… to adopting Hybels’ “constellation of leaders” concept.
I want to hear from you. (All you church staffers represent!)
What best describes your current expression of church? (house, small, medium, mega, multi-site, don’t go at all, etc.)
What’s your context? (rural, urban, suburban, university campus, etc.)
How is your leadership structured?
Is it “working”? (however you define that)
Any innovative approaches to organizing the staff of a church that you’ve come across?
I’m listening.
