Developing Yourself as a Leader and Establishing Your Key Priorities and Roles - Peter Saunders

As Jesus and the Apostles demonstrated, the key to advancing Christ’s Kingdom through both churches and parachurch organisations is through effective leadership. This Master Class will cover key principles in the following areas: developing yourself as a leader; establishing key priorities and roles; building and positioning a team; motivating and encouraging your staff and volunteers; delegation and training; setting your vision, mission, and strategy; communications and fundraising; building effective organisational systems and structures; avoiding and dealing with relationship failure.

This is part one in a five part Master Class series on 'How to Lead Fruitfully and Effectively'.

Build a strong devotional life centred on God’s Word, invest in your family, and emulate godly leaders. Enhance your growth through leadership resources, mentorship, and learning through life’s challenges. Take control of your daily routine, protect your mind by focusing on positive and helpful inputs, and understand your unique gifts and strengths. Align your efforts with your personal calling and purpose to maximise impact and fulfilment.
