New July Series…Lessons from the Administrator

This July, I will be posting a series of posts focusing on Administration. Over 13 years ago, I took the plunge into full-time ministry. Over those years I have learned many “life lessons”. These are lessons that they never taught me in school. As a matter of fact, I majored in Mission’s and minored in Greek… how I ended up in children’s ministry is beyond me. Either way, I‘ve had to learn a lot of very painful lessons. It’s a good thing I did though; I now oversee over 1,000 children, over 600 volunteers, and a full-time staff of skilled children ministers. Here’s a quick rundown of what to expect:

- Joe’s use it, don’t lose it filing system

- Playing to your strengths  – How to effectively utilize your whole team

- The difference between Leading and Managing

- How to appreciate timelines and checklists

- Time Management

- How to utilize high capacity volunteers

- Shifting schedules

- Great Expectations
