Manage Change like a Champ
June 3, 2020 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
Successfully managing a period of change takes art, intuition, skill, strong listening, effective communication, and spiritual discernment. When done correctly, change management can help a leader gain respect and loyalty. Done poorly, it can have adverse effects on the organization and its people.
Managing change is often daunting to oversee, especially during challenging circumstances. These hacks will help you adjust to change by working with your team to create and execute imaginative plans. Learn to:
- Launch major transformation efforts to keep your members’ heads above water
- Make plans to overcome those who oppose the transformation
- Enable others within the ministry to drive change themselves
- Build the necessary skills to foster flexibility
- Contribute to an organizational culture of adaptability
- Get your mind, emotions, and behavior in the same direction of the shift.
Featured guests included Carla Leon (Innovation & Special Projects lead for EDGE – A Network for Ministry Development of the United Church of Canada), Jennifer DeCoste (Community Host of Life.School.House), and Terry Crump (Mental Health Initiative Team of the National Benevolent Association, owner of Crump Wellness Services, and clinical psychologist).
And just like we did for our previous episode, we gathered with our guests, plus Associate Minister for New Church Strategies, Jose Martinez, for an after session, where we continued the conversation on Zoom. To watch this video, visit our Facebook Live link.
