In 2024, perhaps more than any other time, we hear about quiet quitting, burnout, exhaustion, high turnover and the great resignation. Whether you are leading staff or volunteers, a strategic focus on building a healthy culture is the antidote to all these issues. What are the values and behaviors that define your team? You can have a great vision and strong prayer effort, but if you don't pay attention to culture, you will not have success.
Tim Stevens will share insights from the turnaround taking place at Willow Creek Community Church following the traumatic events of 2018 and the soon-after devastating impacts of Covid and racial unrest, and how an intentional focus on culture is fueling the change from the inside out.
En 2024, quizás más que en cualquier otro momento, escuchamos sobre la renuncia silenciosa, el agotamiento, la fatiga, la alta rotación y la gran resignación. Ya sea que estés liderando al personal o a voluntarios, un enfoque estratégico en construir una cultura saludable es el antídoto para todos estos problemas. ¿Cuáles son los valores y comportamientos que definen a tu equipo? Puedes tener una gran visión y un fuerte esfuerzo de oración, pero si no prestas atención a la cultura, no tendrás éxito.
Tim Stevens compartirá conocimientos sobre la transformación que está ocurriendo en Willow Creek Community Church después de los eventos traumáticos de 2018 y los devastadores impactos posteriores del Covid y la agitación racial, y cómo un enfoque intencional en la cultura está impulsando el cambio desde adentro hacia afuera.

In a culture that celebrates busyness and experiences its negative effects, the followers of Christ have an opportunity to celebrate rhythms of rest. Rest is a God-given gift that enables us to renew, recreate, refocus, and reconnect. In living out Sabbath Rest as Christians, we distinguish ourselves as non-anxious, unhurried, peace-filled people. While the Gospel must be proclaimed with the words that we speak, it must also be proclaimed with the lives that we live.
En una cultura que celebra el ajetreo y experimenta sus efectos negativos, los seguidores de Cristo tienen la oportunidad de celebrar los ritmos del descanso. El descanso es un don de Dios que nos permite renovarnos, recrearnos, reenfocarnos y reconectarnos. Al vivir el descanso sabático como cristianos, nos distinguimos como personas sin ansiedad, sin prisas y llenas de paz. Si bien el Evangelio debe proclamarse con las palabras que decimos, también debe proclamarse con la vida que vivimos.

Ministry has become an increasingly challenging vocation because of the unique leadership dynamics in the local church setting. Studies show that between 50% - 85% of Pastors leave ministry within the first 5 years out of seminary. Key factors include that Pastors were not well connected, did not see matters of soul care and self-discipline as important, and were not able to effectively manage or resolve conflict. We become emotionally unhealthy thus affecting relationships; we do ministry in our own strength leading to burnout. Churches are only as healthy as their leadership. Burnout is our emotion’s way of putting on the brakes and bringing high-achieving, goal-oriented persons to a stop before they self-destruct physically and emotionally. We will discuss how to recognize and confront burnout and then focus on a strategy to avoid burnout, enabling you to lead from a position of health and stability.El ministerio se ha convertido en una vocación cada vez más desafiante debido a la dinámica de liderazgo única en el entorno de la iglesia local. Los estudios muestran que entre el 50% y el 85% de los pastores dejan el ministerio dentro de los primeros 5 años después de salir del seminario. Los factores clave incluyen que los pastores no estaban bien conectados, no consideraban importantes los asuntos del cuidado del alma y la autodisciplina y no eran capaces de gestionar o resolver conflictos de manera eficaz. Nos volvemos emocionalmente insalubres, lo que afecta las relaciones; hacemos el ministerio con nuestras propias fuerzas, lo que conduce al agotamiento. Las iglesias son tan saludables como su liderazgo. El agotamiento es la forma que tienen nuestras emociones de poner los frenos y detener a las personas de alto rendimiento y orientadas a objetivos antes de que se autodestruyan física y emocionalmente. Hablaremos sobre cómo reconocer y enfrentar el agotamiento y luego nos centraremos en una estrategia para evitarlo, lo que le permitirá liderar desde una posición de salud y estabilidad.
