Rövid leírás:
Fully revised and updated classic in the field-the single-best guide to board leadership in Christian and Jewish congregations.
TöbbHosszú leírás:
Amid the tectonic shifts in institutional religious life in the United States, Governance and Ministry has proven to be an indispensable guide for leaders and clergy on how to work together to lead congregations. Veteran congregational consultant and minister Dan Hotchkiss draws on governance research from business, non-profits, and churches, as well as deep experience in a variety of denominations and congregations to help readers determine the governance model that best fits their needs.
The third edition has been streamlined and reorganized to better help readers think through leadership models and the process of change. It also features appendices with a style guide for policymakers and a unified example of a board policy book. To enhance the book's value, Dan offers online resources at www.danhotchkiss.com.
