“Now is the time for leaders to be exceedingly human and vulnerable even though it’s counter-intuitive.”
- Patrick Lencioni | Leadership Doesn’t Stop podcast
Crisis is constantly occurring in our world on a personal, relational and organizational level.
Crisis is disruptive bringing an opportunity for life-changing growth or potential disaster.
God has positioned you as a leader to shepherd your people through this “valley of the shadow of death” (Ps. 23) into good pasture.
The enemy wants you and your people to lose heart and die in the valley.
That’s why we at Wellspring Group have put together a Interactive Workshop & 6-week small group experience that will assist you as you:
Connect to God’s heart for you as a person and leader
Grapple with your own internal struggles being stirred by these unprecedented events in our world
Discover the heart and skills to effectively relate to the vulnerability of your people
Build relational and leadership capital that will allow you to lead your team through uncertain territory
Overcome the enemy and become an effective shepherd leader
This 6-week experience is for:
Any individual or team in a leadership capacity that longs to grow in knowing how to effectively guide yourself and the people you lead through whatever crisis you and your team is currently experiencing or will encounter in the future. Though the focus of this material is on leading in an organization, the concepts and skills apply to leading in everyday life, business or church.
“As a leadership coach working with both churches and businesses, I’m seeing that connecting with hearts could just be the most important issue that God is revealing to us during this COVID crisis. He’s revealing it as a need for this season and as a need for any season because he designed us for this. But I also strongly believe that it is a practical need for any organization going forward because of the need to build deeply cohesive leadership teams that can adapt the organizations to a new and ever-changing future. The workshop and materials that Wellspring has put together seem to be so well-designed to help meet this need.”
John Purcell | Transform – Leadership Coaching
STEP ONE: Attend The Interactive Workshop
In the 90 min interactive workshop for leaders and leadership teams you will:
Experience authentic, vulnerable sharing from leaders of churches and businesses, both large and small, who are grappling with how to shepherd their own hearts and the hearts of their people
Connect through interactive small group breakout sessions with other leaders or your own leadership team
Build a foundation for you and your team to build on as you walk through the next 6 weeks together.
Be inspired with a vision to grow as a shepherd leader who guides your people through the dark valley into good pasture as we address:
Connecting With Scripture | 3 heart skills in the life of David from his crisis at Ziklag (1 Sam. 30:1-30).
1. Connecting To Your Own Heart | What are you experiencing and how is it helping or hindering you as a leader?
2. Connecting With God’s Heart | What is God’s heart and purpose for you as a leader?
3. Connecting To The Heart Of Your People | As your people are “harassed and helpless” (Matt. 9:36-38) – How do you reveal the heart of the Good Shepherd to them?
STEP TWO: Engage the 6-Week Small Group Experience After The Workshop
The 6-Week Experience Provides:
A PATH |
How does this vision become a reality in the daily challenges of life? We walk with you on a 6-week path that consists of:
- Weekly Videos | introduce the concepts and model practical skills for you to shepherd your people
- Daily Personal Reflections In Scripture | develop key concepts by connecting you to God’s heart, your heart and the hearts of those around you
- Weekly Meeting Guides | guide your group to review and go deeper into what you are experiencing throughout the week in the scripture, in life and your leadership challenges
On this path you will start to develop these heart skills and embark on the journey to:
- Connect to your heart | Become exceedingly human as you connect to your own heart
- Connect to God’s heart | Grow in your understanding of God’s heart for you as a human being and leader. Discover that you can only give away what you receive
- Connect to the heart of your people | Grow in identifying with the hearts of others. Build a culture of safety that allows your people an opportunity to grow personally and vocationally
- Build the leadership and relational capital necessary to lead your team/organization into the uncertain future of the next few years
A SUPPORT COMMUNITY |
You’re not alone on this journey, we are here for you! That’s why we are providing:
- Interactive Coaching Call | for your group leader to connect with other leaders and gain insights into how to lead your group into this 6 week experience
