1. Confrontation Skills: What techniques or approaches do you find effective when performing confrontations with staff or church members, and how do you prepare for these difficult conversations?
2. Understanding Responses: How can you better assess and understand the different responses individuals may have to confrontation, and what strategies can you employ to manage those responses constructively?
3. Leadership Development: What is your vision for developing a culture of continuous leadership growth within your church, and how can you incorporate coaching or training opportunities for yourself and your staff?
4. Engaging Your Elders: In what ways can you work with your elder board to ensure they are actively supporting your health and leadership development, rather than solely focusing on church governance?
5. Creating Effective Structures: What are some practical structures or processes you can implement in your church to ensure that pastoral care and leadership health are prioritized and resourced?
6. Navigating Conflicts: How do you plan to address and navigate conflicts within your ministry team, ensuring that issues are resolved amicably and do not lead to division or strife in the church community?
