About the Workshop

Pastors already influence their congregation's culture.

Shadow of the Leader helps you do it with greater clarity, purpose, and impact.

The Challenge

Many pastors don’t realize the influence they have on their congregation’s culture.

The Shadow of the Leader workshop proceeds from a few simple truths:

  • God works through the leaders he places in each congregation.
  • Leadership shapes culture.
  • Without intentional leadership, culture will take its own course—including ways that don’t align with the church’s mission.

Thus, when culture is hindering the church’s ministry, leaders have both the calling and the opportunity to use their influence to address the cultural issues.

Our framework helps pastors:

  • Appreciate the importance and impact of their leadership shadow.
  • Focus on and develop leadership factors that support culture change.
  • Prepare to lead a culture shift.
