Ambassadors of Reconciliation

Customized Leadership Training

Because of our extensive experience working with leaders, we have developed training to equip leaders for being more effective and productive in their work. Leaders learn proactive skills for avoiding destructive conflicts and reconciling relationships while solving problems.

Our customized leadership training is specifically designed for leaders in congregations, educational institutions, districts, synods, ministry boards, and other organizations.

Who Can Benefit from Leadership Training?

Those who have benefited from our past training include board members, pastors, elders and other lay leaders, teachers, administrators, circuit counselors, district and synodical presidents, counselors, lawyers, business people, and more.

What Kinds of Leadership Issues Can Be Addressed?

Examples of topics include:

Lay Leadership Training / Retreats – Training for elders and other leaders, customized for specific applications. Includes training on ministering to pastors and other called workers, conducting membership visits, and preparing and leading devotions.
School Faculty In-Service Training – Training for faculty in reconciliation and leadership, customized for specific applications.
Policy-Based Board Governance – Properly applied policy-based governance can reduce conflicts. Improperly applied, such systems can encourage and exacerbate conflict. We train leaders for applying policy-based governance in non-congregational settings such as school boards, district boards, and program boards. For congregational settings, we train leaders for applying policy-based governance on an adjusted basis in order to separate financial/legal issues from spiritual care/oversight issues, such as provided by elders and pastors.
Facilitating Theological Conferences – Designing and facilitating conferences for discussing theological differences, customized for specific situations.
Is There a Corinth in Your Circuit? – 1 to 1½ day conference presentation for district and synodical leaders, equipping them to work with congregations in conflict, with special emphasis on idolatry, pornography and cybersex, and working with conflicted groups.
