Executive Pastor Cohort
Each month you will tackle a new system in a way that helps you implement and execute in an effective way. You’ll be learning from someone who integrated these systems in a church that grew from 250 people to 3,300 in 7 years. You will have the opportunity to ask questions to apply it to your specific context while networking with other pastors who are walking through the same barriers.
“Being in the Executive Pastor Cohort has helped me immediately implement positive changes in our ministries that helped us welcome, assimilate, and disciple new people. Matt’s knowledge and experience have been extremely beneficial in answering my questions while helping me plan for the future.” – Joe Mullarkey – Monroe Evangelical Free Church – Monroe, NE
Build A Staffing Plan
Too many churches have no plan and strategy for their #1 asset: their team. This is a major problem, especially given staffing usually takes up at least 50% of your budget. I know a church that wasted over $35,000 for six weeks of work on one bad hire. A small investment on the front end can save you tens of thousands of dollars on the back end. We will cover developing a hiring philosophy, hiring to values, and building a hiring process. The quality and health of your church is a direct reflection of the quality and health of your staff.
“Matt’s ability to structure a staff and identify the leaders necessary to facilitate growth and health is the best I’ve ever seen.” Josh Howerton – Lakepointe Church, Dallas TX
Leadership 101
No matter your position, if you want to grow as a leader, this is the intensive for you. This intensive will dive into different skills to help you better lead yourself, lead others, and be the team member everybody wants.
“As a pastor at a young church plant of 200 and growing, I felt like I was hitting some serious barriers as a leader because of my own lack of leadership experience. I decided to do some coaching with Matt and it has been a GAME CHANGER. I honestly feel like I am twice the leader I was.” – Ryan Miller- Restored Church- Wilkes-Barre, PA
FAQ
