Associational Strategies

The Associational Strategies Team seeks to provide learning opportunities for Directors of Missions and other associational staff through the:

Five Basic Initiatives

1. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
   Our team seeks to identify, enlist, and equip potential Directors of Missions. We offer training to help them to determine what an effective and relevant association can be and must be in today’s world.
    
   
2. LEARNING LABS
   Our team utilizes effective associations as “learning laboratories”. These  learning laboratories provide on-site, customized learning experiences for a Director of Missions to enhance his skills in specific areas such as church planting and leadership development.
    
   
3. COACHING / MENTORING
   Our team provides a network of Directors of Missions as coaches / mentors for new Directors of Missions and other associational staff who desire to be strengthened spiritual, personally, and professionally.
    
   
4. STRATEGY PLANNING
   Our team provides a strategic diagnostic process for associations to help them connect with the needs of their churches. Strategies are then designed and implemented to help the churches move forward in their ministries.
    
   
5. ASSOCIATIONAL PERSONNEL PEER LEARNING EVENT – APPLE
   Our team works with state and associational leaders to provide regional learning gatherings such as APPLE Conferences. We utilize practitioners in the field that encourage peer learning, networking, and the building of synergy.
