The Art of Leadership Academy

Every single month in The Art of Leadership Academy I host a Live Coaching Call, where I coach you through the most pressing topics in ministry today. This month, on June 21st, we’ll be discussing Church Attendance vs Member Engagement, where we’ll explore meaningful insights and strategies to foster a more vibrant and involved congregation. And, of course, how you can implement these strategies at your church.

If you want to join the Live Coaching, you can sign up at theartofleadershipacademy.com. In addition to the coaching, you’ll get access to all of my training programs on topics like Preaching, Outreach, Growth, Team Leadership, and more.

If you want in on this month’s Live Coaching Call on fostering a more vibrant and involved congregation, be sure to join before the 21st.

What gets recognized gets repeated, and yet too many managers don’t offer enough positive feedback. 

This is a big miss when Forbes tells us that 36% of employees say lack of recognition is the top reason they’d leave their jobs.

That’s why my friends at Leadr just added Recognition to their platform to help busy leaders prioritize this fundamental practice. 

Check out Leadr.com to learn how you create a culture of recognition that will engage and retain your staff.
