Leadership in Lockdown: Back to the Future

'A crisis involves unexpected problems and unprecedented opportunities. Wise leaders ensure they address both.'

The Church has done some amazing things over the past three months. The summer lies before us. Lockdown is easing for now. Church buildings can open up in limited ways for gathered worship.

Leaders now face some difficult decisions. Surveys reveal many of us are exhausted, and when tired it is easier to take the path of least resistance. But... this may be a once in our lifetime kairos moment for the Church.

This event will explore how we can lead through the next two months to make the most of the missional opportunity before us. Can we embrace the possibility not simply to return to how things were, but to look back in order to build a stronger future.

Our speaker is James Lawrence, Leadership Principal at CPAS, who is conducting a series of webinars around the country. He teaches and trains on issues of leadership and mission. And just like you, he is finding this season a heady-mix of challenge and opportunity.

The webinar will last for one hour, but James and others will stay online afterwards for those who would like to chat further about the issues raised. There are limited spaces available, so don’t forget to sign up. Joining instructions will be sent out the day before.
