Equipping Leaders To Multiply

Is Your BIG Thinking Producing SMALL Leadership Development Results?

You’ve come up with a BIG idea for a BIG event that you hope will produce BIG results for all the new leaders you need to run your ministries.

In the end, the big event was well attended but six months later you’re not noticing a difference in the way people are leading.

To accomplish your mission  you need not only more leaders but you need better leaders too. Over the past 30 years of developing leaders in the church, I’ve discovered that smaller is better when it comes to leadership development.

It’s the small word of encouragement, a small challenge, small piece of constructive feedback that over time transforms the way someone leads.

In this weeks video, I share three reasons I prefer small environment training over big environment training. Check it out, share the video with your team and use the discussion questions below to share your thoughts and action steps.
