Inspired by the book of the same name, Thriving in the Second Chair is an event featuring church leadership expert and keynote speaker Mike Bonem. Second chair leaders carry important responsibilities but are ultimately not the ones in charge, making it easy to feel frustrated and burned out. Thriving in the Second Chair will equip you with the skills and tools necessary to play integral roles in your local church. Local church leaders will learn to focus on the ways they can think and act differently in order to cultivate a thriving ministry.
Get the experience YOU want. Choose your own workshops from the following options:
Leading From Your Giftedness: Finding Your Niche and Communicating Your Role to the Congregation OR Spirituality for Ministry
AND
Setting Boundaries OR The Relationship with the Senior Pastor and Your Relationship with Staff
This three-day event will feature Mike Bonem, a consultant, coach, author, speaker, husband and father. He offers a unique mix of world-class consulting and executive leadership experience to help churches, ministries, and their leaders turn vision into results.
Mike is the author or co-author of four books on ministry leadership. His most recent book is Thriving in the Second Chair: Ten Practices for Robust Ministry (When You’re Not in Charge). Previous books are In Pursuit of Great and Godly Leadership, Leading from the Second Chair, and Leading Congregational Change.
Mini-workshops will be led by Patty Muse, Glenna Manning and Mary Henley. Visit intentionalgrowthcenter.org/thriving for more on these speakers.
Cost: $179.00 per person, program only
