Description
Author and Associate Professor Jody Dean recognizes that often, an occupational highlight for pastors is the privilege of supporting people in their congregation- and a lowlight can sometimes be the administrative responsibilities that come alongside managing a ministry.
Believing that leadership in your local congregation can go well beyond pushing paper and using Scripture as a foundation, Dean offers insight into several areas of congregational management such as the foundations of people, property, fiscal, programming, and process development, organizational challenges such as time management, performance management, workflow, and generational differences, and coaching opportunities like ensuring your own personal development.
