SUMMARY:Pursuing Partnership Culture: Considerations as Men and Women Lead Together
DESCRIPTION:Coming again soon: check back!\n Wednesdays\, 12:30 – 2:00pm Eastern time\, bi-weekly\nFor men and women both to participate and process as colleagues.\nSession 1: Introductions and Overview\nSession 2: Benefits and Barriers – Structural & Practical\nSession 3: Implications of Theology – The Evangelical Spectrum\nSession 4: Flourishing Partnership – Inner Life\nSession 5: Flourishing Partnership – Community Culture\nSession 6: Flourishing Partnership – Intentional Practices \nPursuing Partnership Culture: Considerations as Men and Women Lead Together\n*Organizational Culture Shifts that Help Men and Women Flourish as They Work Together\n*Reducing Unintended Barriers to Healthy Partnership\n*Creating Pathways for Women in Organizational Leadership\n \nThis online workshop is limited to 20 participants who are focused on exploring and growing together around men and women leading together. (Limit 3 people from any one organization\, but colleagues attending together is encouraged for maximum benefit to the organization) \n\n*Learn with and from other participants in a discussion-based format\n*Spiritual reflection and practical help\n*Leave with new relationships and insights\n*Opportunities for ongoing cohort learning and interaction following event \nFacilitated by Ms. Wendy Wilson and Dr. Rob Dixon\n*More about our facilitators below \nEvent Specifics: \nFacilitators will lead us in interaction around understanding what is happening in both the research and changing expectations around men and women working together in leadership. What do we have to gain or lose by actively pursuing a more effective blend of men and women working together at the leadership level? How do address the challenges and opportunities? We will engage questions and interaction\, and make progress on developing effective processes for your own scenario. \n*Is the need for change traditional\, theological and/or practical?\n*What can be easily changed (once recognized) and what is more challenging?\n*What might a helpful organizational readiness process look like toward engaging effective partnerships?\n*How might expectations be different between home office leadership\, field staff\, supporting churches?\n*As many entities desire to involve more women in their leadership structures (field or executive roles)\, what might be unintended barriers and unrecognized opportunities in this direction?\n*How can we create more avenues to find\, develop\, support\, and retain more gifted women to bring the perspective and talent that we desire for our organizations?\n*What characteristics of organizational culture best support men and women working together in leadership? \nWe will consider a variety of intentional organizational practices that can help us move toward organizational cultures that invite\, develop\, and support women with leadership gifts and experience so male leaders have the eyes and perspectives they need from their female allies. As we identify any unintended barriers to meaningful partnership that may be at work in our own organizational cultures\, we are free to think creatively about removing and replacing them with processes that more accurately reflect our goals and help us accomplish our mission. We can begin to cultivate readiness\, embrace desired change\,  and establish ongoing pathways to bring the benefits of male/female partnerships more fully to bear.  The Image of God displayed and at work! \nWho is this for? \n*Mission Organization Decision-Makers (Executive Level\, HR/Personnel)\n*Field Staff Leadership\n*Church Leadership (Pastors\, Elders\, Dir. of Ops/Personnel) \n\nRegistration: $ 125\nRegister and pay online through the link in the top right corner of this page.
