Retreat Facilitation

Mike can help you address critical opportunities and obstacles that need resolution.

The Problem

Leadership teams often struggle to resolve strategic issues that are complex and potentially divisive.

The Goal

Address critical opportunities and obstacles that need resolution.

The Process

A 1- or 2-day retreat with an outside facilitator is often the ideal setting for dealing with challenging issues or making strategic decisions that have long-reaching impacts. An experienced facilitator can structure the process with the end in mind, keep the conversation moving, and make sure that all viewpoints are expressed.

Example

A non-denominational church had grown dramatically in its first 15 years, and as often happens, experienced a number of growing pains. One particularly sensitive area was the role of the elders. During a 1½ day retreat, the elders were able to have healthy discussions about several recent conflicts. Out of this, they arrived at a common and clear understanding about their role relative to the senior pastor, staff, and other lay leaders.
