Coaching for Faith Communities
Faith communities can be focused, aligned, working towards a common goal and filled with collaborative spirit.
However, often they are like many other organizations—having varying degrees of lost vision, fatigue, tension, conflict, disillusionment and lacking focus.
WHT Coaching believes in your mission. We believe that you are together to bring about community, compassion, challenge, spiritual growth, service, renewal, nurture, education and fully living your mission.
- Through coaching and workshops we offer your community:
- Skilled, faith-filled coaches for your community
- Workshops designed for clergy, lay-leaders and congregation members—individually and together
- Effective communication skills
- Conflict management skills
- Alignment of values your community will uphold as you dialogue and develop plans
- Create or recreate a vision for your community
- Renewal of passion that brought you to a life of faith
- Creation of agreed action plans
- Coaching skills to achieve maximum collaboration
- Tools to address conflict in your teams and congregation
- Agreements on behaviors as members interact—providing tools to help them “hear” one another
- Moving away from unhealthy behaviors into ones that are faith-based
- Renewed sense of mission and calling.
