Last Tuesday and Wednesday, a portion of Collision’s staff sat down for an intensive meeting to assess where the ministry is and to strategize where it’s headed. Jim Capaldo, District Executive Minister at Converge Heartland, facilitated the team-discovery process—”a process that helps you know where you stand; clarifies where you should go; and gives you a customized plan on how to get there.”
After discussing Collision’s “hinge moments,” the defining moments that brought Collision to where it is today, the team worked through a 4-question list evaluation that illuminated core issues needing to be addressed.
This led to numerous other clarifying processes, hours of focused discussion, and creative discovery, which eventually engendered high-priority initiatives that Collision will implement in the new year.
We also plan to implement an abbreviated version of this process within student leadership teams at various schools using the 4-question list evaluation. This should help students evaluate the effectiveness of their current outreach strategies and offer pathways to improvement.
Praise God for direction (and Jim Capaldo)!
